[pmiteshr]

Hi,
I am wondering if anyone can help me with my current situation.

Here is my situation.
I am Permanent Resident of Canada since 3 and half years and Working and living in Toronto. I have applied to Canada Citizenship and application has already been approved and waiting for Exam and oath.

Recently i got US Green Card through family bases immigration, But have not been immigrated to USA. The reason being is, The US immigration officer told me that I can not keep two PR. I should choose between U.S or Canada PR. Which i do not prefer. b'se i'm 1 year away from canada citizenship.

Now here are my questions:

1. If i move to USA Do i still eligible for Canada Citizenship?? Do i have to give up the PR of canada???

2. Can i comeback to Canada after 2-3 days of immigrating to USA??

3. Is there any rule that one has to wait for travelling outside USA till one get Green Card in mail???

4. After getting Green Card, If i get married in India, Is it possible to bring my wife to USA within 5-6 months on my GC status???

I appreciate your time in answering and reading this thread.

Thanks,
Mitesh

First of all, this is an immigration forum for USA cases not Canada.

Answering some of your questions:
3. By your post, means that you have your immigrant visa but you are still in Canada. Check the stamp in your passport it has an expiration date. Usually is 6 months (search the internet) that you have to get in the US, since it's suppose that you want a residency here because you want to live here.

Once you get your green card, you can travel outside the US but you can't stay too long outside. Look the rules of US permanent residents:

4. You can get married in India, but your wife will have to wait for many years. You will be a permanent resident meaning that you just can petition for her and wait for a visa number become available. Check the US department of state for the visa bulletin.

For petition for a relative you must have a resident in the US (since you suppose to live in the US) and other factors, check www.uscis.gov

Good luck,
