I hope someone can throw light on my issues.
Some background on my case.....My wife is a Canadian citizen and working full-time in the US. I am an Indian national working on an H1-B visa. Our son (2 months old) is a US citizen by birth. I was planning on applying for my canadian PR. However, before we decide to finally move I was planning to enroll and complete my 2 year full time MBA degree in the US. Here are my questions:
- Lets assume that I have my PR in hand. Now, if my wife and son decide to stay with me in the US for the 2 years while I am completing my MBA do I lose my PR status?
- On the other hand if my wife and son decide to ahead and move back to Canada while I am completing my 2 year MBA in the US do I lose my canadian PR? I will keep visiting them intermittently for a few days within those 2 years.
- I have applied for a canadian proof of citizenship certificate for my son which will take about 10-12 months to process. In the meantime can he stay in canada (on a US passport) for over 3 months? I vaguely recollect reading somewhere that one needs a visa to stay for long term. I was wondering if that applies to a minor as well.
Any advice will be helpful. Thanks in advance!
