david ingram replies:
The reason you cannot find anything is that it can't be done without =
your husband's becoming a permanent resident of Canada.
To do it properly and effectively, you should move to a border area like =
Niagara Falls/Niagara Falls; Windsor/Detroit; Stephensville/Calais or =
out west like Blaine/White Rock. The reason is that if you do so, you =
can keep the same jobs when you start the second step.
To start with, you are going to live in the US for the next five years =
until you have your US citizenship. Then, you will move to Canada and =
live here for another four years while he gets his Canadian citizenship. =
TEN years from now, you will both have dual citizenship and so will any =
children.
