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?
