US Immigration from Canada

Hi there,

I moved to the US in July and I really am not sure where/how to let the Canadian government know that I live in the US now.

Can someone advise?

Thanks!

Can I adjust status (sponsor them for green card) for my parents who are currently in the USA or do they need to go back to Canada first and then start the process?

Hi All,

I have a question pls, I got too excited and submitted my n400 application the very same day I was eligible to apply. I am seeing many posts about cases being denied because they applied 1 day early even though they filed on the day they were eligible.

Anniversary Date: 12/18/2021

90 day before date based on uscis calendar: 09/19/2021

TIMELINE:
1) Submitted my application online on Sept 19, 2021 at 11pm EST

2) Received NOA with the following info:

RECEIVED DATE: 09/20/2021

NOA DATE: 09/20/2021

PRIORITY DATE: EMPTY

3) My USCIS page shows, it says "Submitted on 09/19/2021, but the rest of the letter. case history all shows Sept 20.

So QUESTION, which date does the officer look at to determine filing date? Priority date is blank on my application

What do you guys think?

Thank you.

My husband is sponsored by an electrical company, our lawyer submitted the PERM for approval in December but we have still not received anything back. Wondering if anyone know about processing time for that? We are wondering how long this whole process is going to take it seems like it will be a few years. We are in Canada.

Hi all! My wife and I are now ready to begin the process in earnest to move to the USA. She is an American citizen and I am a Canadian citizen, currently living in Canada.

In looking at our immigration steps, we must first file Form 1-130 (Petition for Alien Relative) if we begin the process while living in Canada. After that, we would have to wait for the results of our petition, and at that point be required to provide proof of domicile.

However. I also read that if a spouse is already lawfully present in the United States, that you can file Form 1-130 at the same time as Form I-485 (Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status). Doing so allows both parties to remain in the USA and work while awaiting the results. The only stipulation being that you must remain in the USA while this processes.

In looking at these two options, I feel like the best option for both time and economics is for my wife and I to travel to the USA lawfully (myself as a tourist) and then fill out the forms once we have arrived. My concern is that I have seen people mention that you can't have intended to do this.

However, I see other posts where people travelled to the US as tourists, married their spouse in the USA and then applied and gained PR while staying the USA. Would that not be read as travel with intent to gain PR too then in that case?

I appreciate any clarification/insight/advice - thank you!
