Moving to work in the U.S
So I work for a big Canadian company that has presence both in Canada and the U.S
Even before the pandemic, I worked from home and only reported to the office once every few months.
In my current role, I work with both U.S and Canadian clients, including occasional travel to our U.S offices once or twice a year.
I would like your opinion (I am yet to ask HR about this) about the ability to live and work in the U.S:
-while my current role is specific, it is not part of the NAFTA Tan visa agreement.
-can HR help me get a Visa to work the same role but in the U.S?
-Assuming the U.S does grant me a visa to work there and my company is ok with me moving, how would my salary change? At the moment, I make around 65K (plus some small bonuses here and there) : I know each company is different but am assuming I won’t make the same amount but in U.S dollars?
Anything else you can recommend to make this transition easier?
Note: for those wondering, my move to the U.S is not just for better weather or financial reasons. Both myself and my wife have immediate family members who live in the city we are thinking of moving to.
