I am American, my husband is Canadian. We have been married since 2004, and married within Canada. I remained living in Texas to finish my teaching job until retirement, which was this last May. My husband "lives" in Canada, but visits me every three months, or I go visit him. Now that I am retired, we are hoping for me to live with him in Canada. We have started the paperwork for a spousal sponsorship. My question is: can I bring my furniture and personal belongings with me when I come, or must I wait until my paperwork is done? I know I can visit, but I want to sell my house in the U.S. and buy a house with my husband.Thank you so much!
