Looking to move to Canada.. spoke to some recruiter inside Cisco, heard cisco doesn't sponsor Visa for the move. Does anybody know any company which would help sponsor visa and then hire? Please let me know if someone has does this before.

      Be ready to take a significant 50% pay cut in total comp in US dollars terms. You lose on exchange rate as well as lower salary in Canadian dollars. I would only move if you had already saved enough money that it is no longer a big financial concern

  • Microsoft and Amazon do sponsor visas for this. There might be a few more but small companies in very specialized areas which is rather an exception than norm

  • Another major advantage of PR, if you are into remote work, you can work for any us based company ... be self employed in canada and save a lot on taxes. Being remote you won't even require living closer to major city and can buy cheaper property. Finally in bc right now, if you are not a pr, you have to pay 15% tax if you wish to buy a property
