Can he apply for Canadian residency at the same time that we apply for either K-1 or K-3?

Thanks so much... we need to decide... want to get the ball rolling!

I'm a USC married to a french man who has been living in Canada for about 20 years.

March of 2005 -Met each other by chance in in Niagara Falls

April of 2005- after a ton of emails, arranged to meet in Montreal, now it's really getting exciting

May of 2005- tons of emails, he comes to visit Kentucky- we are so in love

In between visits to Toronto and KY, we go to Honduras, Montreal, Vancouver for vacations.

Sept 1, 2007 -Back and forth visits in between, IM and Skype, now we take the plunge and get married. We are so happy and my family and friends love him as much as I do!

March 25, 2008- Mailed out the I-130... finally!!!

April 4, 2008- Received the NOA1!!!

Sept. 2008 We went to Paris and the south of France (our 1st anniversary spent here) to visit my new family- with a quick peek at Spain. I love his mom and his son!

Just received a notice that we are moved to the CSC! I hear that is very good news! The date on the letter is Nov. 5.

Dec 16- Received our I-797C, Notice of Action Approval Notice with a Notice Date of Dec. 5 - super excited!

Called and told about change of address (in Canada) for beneficiary 12-22-08

Jan 11 2009 -Receipt of AOS Fee payment.

Feb 5- emailed DS-3032 and mailed the hard copy.

Feb 11- received confirmation email for DS-3032

March 29- 2009 Online payment of IV fee

Jan 11, 2010- husband spoke with NVC- still haven't received DS-230... she said since we paid online that we won't receive a package- just download forms- she sent him link to instructions via email.

well, is very likely that the Canadian citizenship will take longer to process than a K1 or K3 will.

Do the Canadian citizenship first, get that over and done with, then worry about US immigration.

divorced - April 2010 moved back to Ontario May 2010 and surrendered green card

PLEASE DO NOT PRIVATE MESSAGE ME OR EMAIL ME. I HAVE NO IDEA ABOUT CURRENT US IMMIGRATION PROCEDURES!!!!!

This is depressing news to me... so if we have to wait until he is a Canadian citizen, then we can't even begin the filing process so we can be married and for him to live here until that goes thru? A year and a half possibly?

Thanks for all your help... we need to know... still it is depressing....

Sorry, I really don't know what to tell you and how it would all play out if he was to apply for his Canadian citizenship at the same time as you are sponsoring him to the US. All I know if he is going to be travelling back and forth between Canada and the US with a US greencard and Canadian Permanent resident card and no citizenship in either counties it brings up the big question for both US and Canada customs of which country he is claiming to "reside" in. Once again a person cannot be a legal resident of both the US and Canada. He may very well get his US greencard/visa and/or Canadian permanent residency revoked.
