My husband has received a job offer in Vancouver and we are looking to permanently relocate from the US (fyi: we are all US citizens). This would include my husband, myself and our 2 kids, ages 14 and 15. Since we are going to be working there and living there, do we need citizenship?

Wow. I don't know where to start this, so I'm sorry for the scatter-brain approach. Moved down to NC on a L1A visa with a bank, and was just let go yesterday. I'm certain that my Visa no longer applies, and we'll need to move back to Canada.
