From U.S. to Canada

Published

So, if I wanted to go to Canada for awhile and work as a nurse (from U.S.) would I have an easier time finding a job?

What can I expect about the work environment that is different than the U.S.?

Is it hard to get the license to practice in Canada if I get citizenship?

Dear Silverdragon102,

Thanks! I guess since I signed my contract already I ain't got a choice really but to apply in Canada as a contract worker at least and wait for the forthcoming packets instead. Might as well try it..

For Canada most apply for a temp work permit (TWP) but be aware max period it is issues for is 3 years and have to reapply once your 3 years are nearly up. Retrogression may take longer

Sigh! it's a tough decision but i hope nothing's wrong if I apply as immigrant... Only God knows.. Well I guess it's safer to say try both ways first then here goes the saying..." let's just cross the bridge when we get there.."
