Thanks Nelsona. So the income I generate with extra work will be income in addition to my income through employment. Somehow I always thought that in addition to the income from work, with my current status I am not legally allowed to generate income. And that I am restricted to work/duties related ...

First of all, I was not sure if this question belongs to the tax forum or the immigration one. However, since it was related more to the income source, I planned to post it here - I am currently working in US (Canadian citizen) with a construction company (based in US). Now, I understand that I can ...

Thanks nelsona!! Yes, I understand that she will require a AP to re-enter. The lawyer has processed for me and my family I131. My wife and I got a "combo card" which indicates EAD/AP card! My daughter got a paper document with her picture on it. Also should we all enter on AP or it is &quo...

My wife and I are both Canadian citizens working in the US. I hold a H1 visa (expiry Sept 2013) while she is working on a TN Visa (expiry Oct 2014). IN March we received our EAD/AP combo card which was filed through my employer. The I-485 application is still pending for approval (PD Dec 2008). We p...

I have my I-140 approved and my Priority date is current (EB2 - India). I just heard from HR, that there is going to be a change in the company name and that my paycheck will reflect the name of the subsidary company rather than the main company through which my Labor and I-140 was approved. I have ...

1. The company is in Canada and has no US affiliations, so it seems I am ok 2. I am in US on H1 visa. The reason I want to register for a sole proprietorship is to not get taxed on top of my personal income (employment). When you say I can register a business on H1; does it mean in the US? If so, th...

Thanks for the response! However, based on your answers, I have further questions - 1) The client is not US, but the work will be performed from US since I work full time here on a H1. As indicated earlier this will be as if I am doing freelance work. So it seems that I can work and raise extra inco...

I am a Canadian citizen working on H1 visa in US. My family and I have cut all my ties with Canada since 2008 (departure return filed). I have been offered a project (fixed price) from a small company in Canada. Based on the current market trend, it seems I might be able to get more projects to work...

Thanks again for a quick response! You are the best!
That is what I thought as well, but the employer is being "rigid" in his wordings and I have been struggling to persuade them from day one on this issue! Lets see

Thanks nelosna! I have one more question - I have received the TN letter from the new employer, however, the employer is not willing to put the duration (3 years) in the letter indicating that it implies into a contract! Instead a start date followed by "provided that she has active TN visa&quo...

Thanks nelsona! So, at the border when we apply for the new TN, would it matter that she would have a full time TN (present employer) along with a new Tn (full time!) with her future employer! If she gets a new TN, will the CBP take the I-94 from the old employer or we need to make it clear at the b...

My wife and I are currently Canadian citizen working on Tn and H1 visa respectively. She is looking for new prospects/opportunities and has already got an offer! Her visa at current job location expires in early 2012. I know with the new employer she would require a new TN. The question I have is - ...

Thanks, nelsona! Yes, I did file everything correctly. I had hired professional (same who run the forum) services for that year. I had also received a letter from CRA indicating that no CTB payments will be made for my daughter since we are no longer residents. I will write a letter and maybe send c...

My wife and I are Canadian citizen in US on H1 and H4 status. We had filed our departure return (2007) and cut our ties from Canada. My wife and I still hold bank accounts (mostly RRSP and RESP) in Canada. My wife however does have a savings account which generates interest income and has always bee...

Thanks! I was a little bit worried (correct word is scared) about CBP having confusions with all of us re-entering on 3 different status.
