Hello friends

I am a us citizen working in WI / IL and am interested in applying Canadian PR, and keep US Job and do border crossing maybe not daily but enough to maintain PR and apply for citizenship? Is this possible at all?

having seen some H1B holders maintain Canadian PR by working across the border, does this mean its possible?

What about if you are a US citizen, are there any such folks who have done this here?
 
and i was not sure which forum was most appropriate for this , so please move if its been posted in the wrong forum.

thanks,
 
You will have no problem with both sides of the border, since you have entry rights to both countries.

Your only issue would be in keeping track your exit and entry into Canada and US. As a US citizen, it would be an extremely laborious process to get your US entry record (non-US citizen/GC holders can simply look up their US entry record from the I-94 website, but you would need to file a FOIA request, which may take 6 - 12 months).
