This is a good one ... Canadian + American in NZ returning to Canada

[globetrecker]

Greetings! This is my very first post and I am excited to learn from all of you.

I am so excited at the prospect of moving back to my beautiful home country of Canada! It has been 16 years and home is calling to me! Looking forward to chatting with others on the forum. ;D

I would recommend that you start by reading the very first post in this thread. It will give you a good overview of the process and requirements.

Since you are from NZ, applying outland is likely the best option.
