Guys, I am here in US on F1- STEM OPT Visa. My Canadian PR application was approved a week back. Can you please me on below questions:

Questions:

1. Can I apply for US Green card and move to Canada for 5 years, become Canadian Citizen and again come back to US to resume my GC process where I left it without loosing the priority date?

2. Is H1b necessary to apply for US green card?

3. Can I apply for US Green card while on OPT?

4. Can I apply for US Green card while living in Canada?

I am thinking to have Canadian citizenship as a back up. For becoming Canadian citizen, I will have to live in Canada for close to 5 years. So meanwhile i become Citizen, can I parallely continue my US GC process?

Thanks!
