Hi David, I'm wondering if you could help me out. I'm an American citizen who became a "permanent resident" of Canada about 4 years ago. I recently sold property in Montreal and am thinking about returning to the US to live permanently. What would be the best way for me to transfer the money to the states? Thanks so much for your help! Robin Tajiouti------------------------------------

First, get your Canadian citizenship. You have been here long enough and there are absolutely NO disadvantages to your having dual citizenship.
The BIG advantage is that you can return to Canada anytime you want in the future with no questions and / or paperwork.
The easiest way to transfer the money is to have a Candian Bank or the Caisse Populaire transfer it electronically to your bank in the US.
This older Q & A might help as well. �
