---------------------------------------------------------------------------QUESTION: Hi, my boyfriend of 3 years and I are both US citizens.
He is going to be attending grad school at the University of Waterloo in Ontario, Caanda
We are not married and do not intend to be married at present.
We have been unable to live together durring the past three years because he was a
full time student and did not have time to have a job and study so has been
living with his parents and I could not afford to support us both.
This means that we cannot be considered common law partners.
I need help in obtaining a work permit so that I can come with him.
I don't really see how I can get one because I have been working at a call center
for the past two years (only real work exp.) and only have a high school diploma
...soooo, i don't know if i have any chance of obtaining one...
OR is it possible for me to live in Canada but work in the US?
Any advice would be great, I'm desperate!
david ingram replies:I am afraid that you are out of luck. There is no logical visa available to you to come to Canada. The best I can suggest is your moving to Niagara Falls New York and working there. At least you will be close enough for significant visits. you could spend Friday night to Monday morning with your man and Mon to Thursday nights in New York. Depending upon his schedule, he might spend alternate weekends with you. Think of it. Every second weekend in Niagara Falls, The most famous honeymoon destination ever.
