I would be very leary of H&R block. I'm a Canadian down in the USA and now a permanent resident 9cr-1 visa). I made an appointment last year with their "Canadian" specialist. Luckily I found this site before and had read up and our super hero Nelson answered many of my questions. So I ...

Hi. I have used Custom House 3 times with great success. Takes a few days to set up the account. There are a few steps 1) Apply online 2) They send you an email to set up a phone interview.

Regarding regular EI (not maternity) You can apply after you are in the USA.

I'm a Cdn down here in the USA(permanent resident--cr-1 visa) I have been told American Express will transfer a Cdn account to an American one. From my understanding many USA companies can search your CDn credit history, but many are to lazy to do so. Best of luck

That is correct, a K1 must have an EAD prior to working, and thus getting Cdn EI. Have a friend that is a Canadian, she is on a CR-1 visa, thus able to work right away.

Hi, Im Cdn as well, living in USA on a CR-1 Visa. I did the process from Canada. Since your married, and in the USA, you will want to adjust of status (AOS).
