I was born in Canada in 1950. I married a US citizen who was a landed immigrant in Canada in 1969. In 1980 we moved to the US for school and work reasons. For tax reasons, I became an American citizen in 2003. We are still in US but want to return to Canada. Can we come back easily because I was born in Canada? I don't even know where to start the process of finding this out! Thanks for any help you can give me!

1. Canadians have the right of entry to Canada.
2. You wife's PR status is probably still intact as she was accompanying a Canadian citizen abroad.
3. So just have proof of your citizenship and a copy of you wifes PR document, IMM 1000.

Thanks for this info! Do you happen to know the legalities or tax implications etc. of living 6 months in the US and 6 months in Canada?
