Is there any sort of check list that we could follow in regards to my US born wife applying for PR status in Canada. I am a natural born Canadian that has been in the southern US for 5 years now...and it's time to move back to Ontario. We have one child that was born in the US and we have a good grasp of what would be required for her (Certificate of Citizenship...). Would it also be advise to try and locate a US based Lawyer or a Canadian Lawyer for our assistance?

Job Offer........
Pre-Assessed..
Start by reading here: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/fc.asp You will need to complete all 3 parts of the application listed there. You would be applying to sponsor your wife for permanent residence (PR) in Canada. She is eligible to become a citizen after she has been a PR for 5 years. Unless your case is complicated, it's not necessary to hire a lawyer. The application is time-consuming but most of us completed the applications by ourselves with no problem. Good luck!
