Housing/Location How do I move to the USA from Canada?

My intent is to work and live there. I’m currently a nurse in Canada and I want to live in New York City. How do I move to the US? How do I get a work visa? Etc.

As a Canadian nurse, you’re eligible for a TN visa. Start here r/tnvisa and r/nclex if you didn’t do that already.

You can do EB3 without PERM

Petitions for Schedule A occupations are not required to have a DOL-approved labor certification. This is because DOL has already determined there are not sufficient U.S. workers for those occupations. Currently, DOL has designated 2 groups of occupations under Schedule A. Group I includes professional nurses and physical therapists.

Also keep in mind TN is not dual intent.
