So 4th question will i be able to travel to US for meetings and stuff if i have a valid US visa, the reason i ask is since i am a Canadian pr and applied for US gc, do they object at the port of entry Link to comment
JoeF Posted December 17, 2017 Report Share Posted December 17, 2017 You don't have a GC yet, so it can't expire. You don't have to be in the US while the GC process is going on. A NAFTA visa doesn't allow immigration intent, so you can't use that. Once you have the US GC, they don't like having multiple permanent residences, so at that point tou have to decide which one to keep. Link to comment

Thanks a lot for your answers. One question on your reply, by the time the US GC date becomes current i would have my canadian citizenship so effectively my intent then would be US GC only and i can shift to the US and stay here on the GC(being a Canadian citizen then) correct?
