I'm a Canadian citizen and I'm currently living in the US and working for a US company. My greencard is expiring in a couple years and I'm wanting to move back to Canada yet keep my job in the US. I currently telecommute for the company and want to know if I'll need to get some kind of US work permit to continue working for the US company (even though I won't be living in the US). I already know I'll be paying my taxes in Canada, not the US.

I would imagine that you would need one of two things to take place:
1) Renew your green card to retain eligibility to work in the US
2) Have your employer rearrange your employment so that you are employed as an international (Canadian) worker as opposed to a domestic one.
The second is more legwork for your employer but IMO seems like the logical route to go especially if you're intending to go back and stay in Canada.
