Needing direction and advice for applying to work in the USA

Hello!

So I'm trying to figure out how to get a work visa, like what paperwork needs to be filled out and who I need to contact or talk to to get there. My GF's VISA just ran out here and she is now back in NJ, so I'm trying to follow her. She gave up allot to be here with me for 3 years and I would like her to be near her family.

I am .... beyond confused with this amount of information, I am not sure where to start so if anyone at all has any information on applying for a work visa in the USA that pertains to my situation and my level of education please share!

I'm 27 and am a Canadian resident, I am an LPN in LTC / more on the complex locked facility care. I have been nursing for over a year now .. Have my high school education and plan on going for my BSN in a few years.

Anyhow, I'm going on and on so yeah if anyone at all could help point me in the right direction please do!

Best of luck to all of you, and thank you for taking the time to read this.

    Search for information on the TN1 visa requirements, you need to obtain your BSCN and become a registered nurse to meet requirements.

    I think you will find LPN will not meet the requirements for both work visa and NAFTA visa enabling you to live and work in the US

    So... How else might I find work in the USA as an LPN... If i was to apply in person for work would that help at all?

    You can try and apply in person but an American employer is not going to offer you a job.

    Why is that?

    Doesn't matter if a employer offers you a job you have to meet immigration requirements for a work visa
