I know this is a very odd question(s), but long story short, my contract ended with the firm I was with, and now I'm unemployed. I've been wanting to visit Canada to see some family and friends, so my question is: would I be able to since I'm unemployed? Would they need proof that I would be coming back? And would I just tell them that I'm unemployed when they ask what I do for a living? I've recently received my 10-year green card. Hoping I can go visit!

Any help would be great, to calm my nerves and everything.

Thanks!

Ur a Canadian citizen correct??? So as a Cdn citizen you have a right to go back! Canada does not care if ur a zillionaire or broke--if ur a Cdn citizen!! And you have ur Greencard, so no probs getting back into USA. Enjoy ur trip

Canadians Visiting the USA while undergoing the visa process, my free advice:

1) Always tell the TRUTH. never lie to the POE officer

2) Be confident in ur replies

3) keep ur response short and to the point, don't tell ur life story!!

4) look the POE officer in the eye when speaking to them. They are looking for people lieing and have been trained to find them!

5) Pack light! No job resumes with you

6) Bring ties to Canada (letter from employer when ur expected back at work, lease, etc etc)

7) Always be polite, being rude isn't going to get ya anywhere, and could make things worse!!

8) Have a plan in case u do get denied (be polite) It wont harm ur visa application if ur denied,that is if ur polite and didn't lie! Refer to #1

Canada doesn't care if you come back. You're a Canadian citizen, you can stay if you want :thumbs:
