    Appreciate the response Mike. However, I need to get the facts before taking early steps. Once the US give a timeline they don't sway from such if one's needs/desires is not part of their procedures. I have the I-130 forms ready to go but I need to be sure of what accommodations are available.

    These are family reunification visas.  As the petitioner, you would absolutely need to be domiciled in the US before they could immigrate.

    Just to clarify - it’s been said but maybe git a but muddled - CSPA means if you are a USC and you file for a child under 21, their (CSPA) age is frozen on the date the petition is properly filed. 
     
    From uscis: 
    If you are an immediate relative, a VAWA self-petitioning abused spouse or child of a U.S. citizen, or a derivative child of a VAWA self-petitioning abused spouse or child of a U.S. citizen, your age is frozen on the date the Form I-130 or Form I-360 is filed. If you were under the age of 21 at the time the petition was filed, you are eligible for CSPA and will not age out. However, you must remain unmarried in order to qualify.

    Yeah, that's my concern for the 20 year old. I will get on the paperwork asap and worry about what comes after. Thanks

    Mistakes in a I-130 or DS-260 can lead to denial after age 21 and then it is too late.  
     
    There is zero reason to not file I-130, online, today for the 20 year old.  This gives you potentially one or more successive attempts.  
     
    Btw had you started this before they turned age 18, you could have expedited and secured US citizenship.  
     
    Finally are you sure they aren’t US citizens now?

    It is going to take 18 months or so and this is a family reunification visa, Canada is particularly keen on you showing you are in the US
