Always go with the official website, in this case Citizenship and Immigration Canada, or www.cic.gc.ca good luck!

View quoted message I needed to know where to look to be able to figure this out. I am currently in the United States and I did not know what website would be true to give me the right answers.

You should definitely look into the website and see the requirements and what would be your best course of action, if it gets confusing, seek counsel from an immigration lawyer, you don't want to be refused, none of us here can provide you with this assistance in detail. I work at an Embassy, so trust me when I say this is definitely not the place to seek such detailed information.

As others have mentioned, you don't get automatic citizenship, you first go through the process of applying for permanent residency which takes several months to over a year, and after you have spent X amount of days in Canada you are eligible to apply for citizenship. Again, none it's automatic, and both take time to process.
The website is super complete, but you might have to spend some time digging to find all the information you need, get familiar with it and the forms, and start collecting all the information you will need when you are ready to apply.

View quoted message Take a look at the site I had in my previous comment for all the ins and outs of becoming a citizen.

View quoted message The first trip is only a couple weeks, I can not stay up there and not work for 6 months. I would eventually move up there to be with my future husband.

View quoted message There are certain requirements to become a citizen that you can read about online ( https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship.html ). If you are just coming to visit for a few weeks at time, and will not be working, I think you can just keep your American citizenship and travel with that if you'll be living in the USA.

View quoted message I am in the United States and I want to be able to have my Canadian citizenship too.

View quoted message I live in the USA. I am going to Canada next year and getting married. I want to be able to be a citizen of both so I can come back and forth to see my family and be able to come home to my future husband.

View quoted message I believe the USA and Canada allow dual citizenship. The first step is getting Permanent Resident status (like getting a USA green card).

After a period of time as a permanent resident, you’re permitted to apply for citizenship.

That’s the typical trajectory. I would check with Canadian Citizenship and Immigration or a lawyer to ensure you’re going about it correctly.

Both the PR and citizenship application can be lengthy processes, but can be worth it overall.

View quoted message Did they say it is possible to be a dual citzen?

View quoted message That is the long term goal, yes.

View quoted message Is he going to be still a dual citizenship

View quoted message I have my American citizenship and I want to be able to have a Canadian citizenship, so I can come back and forth for my full family will not move with me.

My FH is American and we are going through the PR immigration process for him in Canada.

We have done the bulk of the paperwork ourselves and are getting the help of a lawyer.

Where are you becoming a dual citizen? Each country has different requirements and some don't allow dual citizenship at all. I would look on the country's Immigration website for more information.

My brother travels often between the states and canada.

You may want to check out the canadian government site and see the information.
