Hi All

Looking for some advice on which visas to apply for, for our situation... My husband and I are looking to move to the US and are not sure what would be the best option.
We are somewhat familiar with an immigration process as we are British Citizens but Canadian Residents (we have been in Canada for 3 1/2 years now). My husband was sponsored as a window tinter/paint protection installer for the skilled worker visa in Canada and has this experience.
He is also an actor but by no means nationally recognized. He undertook a course to become a certified Bail Enforcement Officer, which he now holds. But to get a working visa or residency he and I will undertake whichever courses necessary to help get temporary or permanent residence LEGALLY in the US.
I have ten years administrative experience and hold an Executive Assistant Diploma. The past four years as an IT Project Coordinator/Project Controls. This has also involved working in an IT Financial/Budget Analyst position. I have my own corporation and have a Business Analyst Certification (recognized by the International Institute of Business Analysis) as well as having the CAPM designation with the Project Management Institute.

So the question, based on our experience, qualifications or soon to hold qualifications, our present residency in Canada and my corporation, does anyone out there have any advice on which visa would be the best option to apply under or what we should do to help move us forward in getting a visa????

Every case is unique. Also, there is often a "tiny" detail would otherwise escape notice, but will come out in a one-on-one consultation with the appropriate documents available. There are many competent attorneys conversant in US immigration law on both sides of the border. A consultation might be in order. Good luck.

Are you really thinking of abandoning your Canadian residency, without becoming Canadian citizens.

There may indeed by a tiny detail as S Floinsky points out. But unfortunately the tiny detail is not in anything you wrote. Look for affirmative answers at http://britishexpats.com/wiki/Pulaski_Simplified. Don't be surprised if you find nothing -- this makes you like most people.
