    Dual US/CDN - what to do with US investments if we move back to CDN?

    Prior to moving to the US, we had to liquidate our assets, and formally cut our financial ties to Canada - to avoid being taxed in both countries. After living in the US for 10+ years, and becoming US citizens, we have an opportunity to move back to Canada for a 4-6 year position. We would...

    First time using US passport traveling back to Canada.

    What is the protocol? I was told by a friend that when we enter Canada, we show our Canadian passport, and when we return to the US we use our US passport. Is there any reason or some sort of advantage in his reasoning for doing this? Thanks in advance!

    One last question about ever moving back to the "old" country.....and taxes.

    We are in the final stages (interviews in a month) and my husband raises the question about the what ifs - meaning what if he is offered an outstanding job opportunity back in Canada (he is in the entertainment industry so there is the potential), and it would mean only if he was making BIG $$...

    What happens to my Canadian citizenship after naturalization?

    I'm curious as to what my status will be after naturalization. When swearing the oath we must renounce allegiance to any foreign state that I have been a citizen to. So, do they keep my Canadian passport at that time?

    My eldest daughter (20) is eligible to apply for citizenship, but we are holding off her application until she has 5 years of "good morale character" - PI charge during her first week of college. We will be waiting 3 years and plan to hire a lawyer for advice when submitting her application...

    Minor children naturalized through parents.....?

    We are going to get our FP done on Oct 22. From other similar timelines the interview seems to take place about a month after the FP. So potentially Nov 22. Then we still have to take our oaths (on approval of course). My youngest daughter turns 18 on Dec 8. Life would be easier if everything...

    Is a need for tax returns or tax receipts at the interview?

    I have just read 5 different postings and now I'm completely confused. Do you have to bring returns or tax receipts (or both?) to the interview? There is no place on the USCIS website that says to bring them - they ask for ID and 2 color photos.

    Affiliations Question on N-400 - what should I list?

    Is like a college application? So list everything, churches, charities, etc., to show what a great American I'll be! Or is it more of a screening, so go easy on the religious or ethnic ties to not appear like a religious zealot, etc. Thanks again!

    Filling out the N-400 - what if I don't have all the information or if dates are incorrect?

    I have worked several part time jobs over the course of the last 5 years, and I don't have my exact dates of my employment. I do have an approximation of when I worked.
