Hello,
I am a dual citizen (US/CAN) and planning on moving back to Canada with my wife (US citizen only). We also have two kids (4 yrs old) who are dual citizens (born in the US). Our tentative move date is the summer of 2011 (about 18 mths away). My current employer has give me a choice of working from Canada, however, the relocation is at my own cost. Could you please tell me what is the best way to do this smoothly? Here are my initial specific questions:
1) Should we start her sponsorship application/process now or wait until we arrive in Canada?
2) Would she have a problem crossing the border with me?
3) If we start the process in the US or Canada, how long does it take?
4) Can you point me to the right forms to start the process?
5) Is it wise to buy our home in Canada prior to our move or wait until we arrive?
6) Are there other things we need to consider?
I just want to make sure I have everything covered and would like to plan ahead.
Thank you
