Just like any other immigrants wishing to become naturalized American citizens, you need to apply for green card first.  Once you've had your green card, you need to legally reside in the US for five years before you can apply for your citizenship.  The final act would be the interview and test before your swearing oath ceremony.  Go to ins.gov for more information on how to obtain a green card.\n\nPS: Canadian actors have it easier cause their acting skill is considered unique and beneficial to America.  Who knew...

All the information about Immigrating to Canada can be found on the Citizenship and Immigration Canada website:\nhttp://www.cic.gc.ca/\nIt is the only website you need to look at.\n\nYou can't just move to Canada and be able to work there legally. To apply for Canadian citizenship you must first become a permanent resident and after 3 years of continuous uninterrupted residence you can apply for citizenship.\n\nAs and American you have 3 choices to work in Canada:\n\n1)Apply for a NAFTA worker status (the easiest)\n Must have a bachelor degree, work experience and job offer.\n To get this status you simply go to the Canadian border\n with your proof of qualifications and job offer and you \n get status on the spot. You must renew it once a year.\n2) Work visa. \n  Apply at the Canadian Embassy with your job offer. \n3) Apply for permanent residency:\n  Take this test to see if you qualify:\n   http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/skilled/assess/index.html\n\nOnly option 3 provides a path to citizenship. The first 2 (no matter how long time you spend in Canada) won't allow you to apply for citizenship.

Well, the American person can re-enter whenever since that one is an American citizen. As for the Canadian, that one can come in on a travel vise, but can't work unless that person has a sponsor or is married to an American.\n\nAs for phone numbers, this is a good place to start:\nhttp://www.uscis.gov/graphics/services/NCSC.htm

I married a Canadian Woman. I now live in Canada. This does not give you automatic Canadian citizenship. It is a process that takes some time to get. \n\nFirst you have to become a "Landed Immigrant". If you have no criminal record it is relatively only time consuming. Do not use one of the immigration consultant. They are a waste of money. Instead do it yourself with the help of one of the Yahoo group Canadian immigration groups. They can help you with each step. They helped my wife and me a lot. Then in about 3 years you can apply for citizenship and get dual citizenship. DO NOT return to the US or your country of origin during the process as you may not be allowed to return.\n\nIf you have been divorced, before you can marry in Canada you have to get several letters from lawyers and certified copies of every divorce decree. If your spouse died then you must have death certificates as well. This has to be sent into the Provincial government and approved before you can get your marriage license. It is a process that can take several weeks to get together, sent, and returned so plan on that.\nGood luck and remember it will take lots of time to accomplish it all...

Canadian immigration only works through an 800 number within canada and an american must work through an embassy in america:  those five canadian embassies are:  seattle, buffalo, chicago, dc & detroit.  Simply search Canadian Immigration and go from there.  Your best bet ultimately is to get an attorney.  Email me w/more info about your situation and perhaps I can assist.  good luck.

I'm sorry but you cannot become an American citizen just by marrying an American.  All you gain is the right to apply for permanent alien residency in the US.  After 5 years of residency, you may apply for citizenship.  \n\nA Fiance Visa is available that allows the US to let you travel to the States to get married.  \n\nHowever, no Visa from the US has anything to do with Iranian law.  Iran does not have to grant you an exit Visa just because the US will take you.  Iran also does not have to let you get married if it is against the law there.\n\nI don't have a lot of good news for you.  \n\nVisit the embassy of Canada or any Western country for more information.

When I was in the Navy in the 1960's there was a Canadian serving with me, from Quebec or Ontario, I am very sure.  The military salaries were extremely low in the USA at that time, at least for enlisted persons.\n\nBut this man claimed he was being paid also by Canada.  He was definitely Canadian and planned to continue there after military service.\n\nI do not know about current arrangements, but I do not at all believe a Canadian would have to renounce Canadian citizenship.  Best to disregard that answer.\n\nI would also guess that U.S. military welcomes Canadians, but as to regulations and agreements between the two nations about this, one needs to consult an authoritative source.\n\nA Canadian military lawyer would probably have the most definitive answer.\n\nAlso, serving in the U.S. military gives you preferences towards U.S. citizenship.  I would guess dual citizenship service members exist already, from Canada, P.I., possibly some other places.

Not that I know of.  But there are countries that allow "naturalized" citizens to do so.  Canada, for one.

First they need to apply for a green card, which is basically permanent residency. Then you should be able to get a SSN.  But that doesn't mean you're a citizen...yet...i don't think.\n\nxo

I am sorry to say that not everyone who come to visit can get a US citizenship. There are requirement clearly stated in the website: www.uscis.gov \nThe key is to be here as a permanent resident for 5 years or three years if you married to a US citizen and then you can apply for a citizenship. To be a permanent resident doesn't come easy but if you exel in sports or science, you are sponsored by a company, or if you get married to a permanent resident or a US citizen you may have a chance to become a permamnent resident ( a process that can take up to two years).\n\nGood luck, it is certainly a great country.

Canadian= a citizen of the country of Canada.  My dad's a Canadian immigrant, but I'm 100% full-red-blooded American.  If you are born in Canada- you're a citizen.  If you legally immigrate there and become a citizen, you're Canadian.

There are many ways to end up with two citizenships or more.  For example, a child born in the US of two non-US citizens is automatically a US citizen, but will probably also be able to derive citizenship from one or both parents, as well.  I know a man who has four citizenships:  Russian (by birth), Italian (from his father), Swedish (from his mother) and Canadian (by immigration).\n\nUS law neither allows nor forbids dual citizenship.

You are eligible for citizenship.  You married a Canook citizen....Can't tell you where to go, but you are certainly eligible.\nOh & thanks for the thumbs down, whoever you are.

Are you a born citizen of Canada, a naturalized citizen of Canada, a landed immigrant or just a visitor passing through Canada?  For a born Canadian you will need 2 pieces of ID, one of which must be picture ID and your birth certificate.  Naturalized citizens will need there citizenship card plus a second piece of ID, probably picture, and maybe also a birth certificate.  All others will need a passport and Visas.  To simplify things get a passport.
