US Green Card and immigrating to Canada
I do have a serious question here. I appreciate for your replies to my query.
1. How can a wife of a US citizen (conditional green card holder) immigrate to Canada ? Pls point me to a website where i could find information.
2. If you want to become a canadian PR, is it a must to give up your US greencard.
Thank you everyone.

1. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/index.html
BTW - what about the husband? Is he immigrating to Canada too?
2. It is not a must to give it up, but it will be lost anyway as a result of taking
permanent residency in Canada.

Re: US Green Card and immigrating to Canada
Keeping the GC (US Permanent Residency status) during long absences from the U.S. is
a recurring topic on misc.immigration.usa; I think the general consensus is that you
should see a competant immigration lawyer before leaving, or else you should assume
you've lost it.

The most likely route, depending on her qualifications, would be to pursue a skilled
worker application, although other categories do exist. Additional information on

In theory, it is not possible to maintain permanent resident status in both countries
indefinitely. If successful in both applications, such status in one country will
likely have to be forfeited.
