Can I live in US near Canadian Border and Travel to Canada for Work

I am a Canadian Citizen and just got my us immigrant visa and have following questions:-

Can I buy a home and live in Blaine, WA and travel everyday to work to Vancouver, BC, Canada (40-50 miles).


If I do that will it satisfy the LPR's US residency requirements, assuming that I will have my WA Driver's licence, WA Car registration and file for US taxes and have my domicile in US.

That's fine. I hope you have a good job, because you'll be subjecting yourself to Canadian taxes.

Commuter GC is for people who reside in Canada and commute to US for work.
Commuter GC does not satisfy residency requirements for citizenship.
