Hi I am a Canadian citizen, and am a Registered Nurse. I know I can work in the U.S, but I was wondering if my husband can. He is trained as a professional firefighter from an accredited college in Canada where they train firefighters. Is this a carreer that allows Canadians to perform in the U.S.?
Sincerly,
MXXXXX

Firefighting is NOT recognized under NAFTA.  Your husband could possibly qualify under a H2B if there is a shortage of firefighters in your area.
