If I go there by myself and leave my family here, will I have more chance to get the Return Permit?

You definitely need a H1-B visa if you want to work in the States. It is not very difficult for the company to help you to get the visa, considering the economy status here.

I have no idea about how to keep the immigrant status in Canada.
Thank you! But can I apply for H1 visa at Toronto?

it's very sure that the company should help you to apply h1 visa. you don't worry about it if the american company really wants to hire you.

they will handle that and they will inform you what you should do IF they REALLY wants to hire you.
You need the sponsorship from the company that's going to hire you. Since you've got the offer from them, they should be willing to sponsor you. Check the following URLs:

I heard that the applicant must go back to China to apply for H1 visa, is that true?
-mzhou(Wander);
2001-12-6(#287507@0)
I don't think you have to if you're already Canadian PR. Correct me in case I am wrong.

Please check this. I found it from the Visa Appointment Confirmation Letter.

"First-time “H1 - B” visa applicants who earned their qualifying academic degrees outside the US or Canada are strongly urged to apply in their home countries, as Toronto consular officers are generally unable to evaluate foreign academic credentials."
I am not sure about current situation, but you still can give a try if you'd like. I do know people who made it successfully as first time H1 visa applicants years ago.

Taking the new law into account, isn't it safe to work in US for 3 years then come back and stay in Canada for 2 years?

My husband got a job offer from a US company early this year and the company applied for H1B for him and H4 for the family. They got the visa ready in the summer,
