Hello All,

I am in USA (originally from Pak) on H1 visa paperwork (came to US on F1 visa), plan to land in Toronto get my PR card and then get the H1 visa stamping done in Toronto.

What are the chances of getting H1 visa stamping from Canada after getting the PR card? Will I have to travel back to Pak to get the stamping?

Currently, I have sent my passport to Buffalo to get my CA immig visa, I plan to come to Toronto in November.

All I can say is that you get information from all channels ( friends / web sites / cic and us gov sites / immigration forums etc ) and then piece together / co-relate the information and see. Nobody can guarantee any Visa but you have to be prepared to answer the questions they most probably ask in your case. Also always keep documentary evidence of what we speak ( meaning certificates / pay stubs / appointment letter / extension letter etc handy )
Good Luck

We got our H1/H4 stamping in Vancouver when we landed for PR. We had no problem.

Thanks guys for the prompt reply.

I would like to know if someone requiring "Special Registration" (like Pakistanis) got the H1 stamping in Toronto after getting their PR, since it takes extra time for background check.

As I plan to get my PR card and come back to the USA right away, do I have to take money in the form of Bank Draft or something just to show the officers and then bring the same back to the US.

Thank you.
