Hi, I have 10 year multiple B1/B2 VISA for USA, got from India.
Can I use the same VISA to travel between Canada and USA?
I am a permanent resident of Canada.

Let me have your understanding please...raj

Dimple,
My understanding was that he should still work for the same company in India that got him the B1/B2 and anytime he wants to go to USA, he should get a Invitation letter from the company in USA (which has business ties to his company in India) stating the reasons for his visit to USA and the duration of his stay in USA.
This is what was told to me by my software engineer friend in India.
If this individual who is asking this question, now neither works for the company in India which got him his B1/B2 and he is going to USA either for courtesy visit or visit to another company which is in no way connected to him getting his B1/B2, can he still use the visa just like a visitor's visa?

Hi, eventhough I got my B1/B2 through company, there is no endorsement of company name on it.

Yes, He can travel on the current B1/B2 visa as long as, he can satisfy the immigration officer at the port of entry ( ONLY if questioned).

That's correct.

B1/B2 is loosely used for both "visitor" visa and for visits on "business" purpose. Hence there is no endorsement or notation of the company that may have applied on behalf of the candidate.
