USA parents

[vikesh328]

My dad is a USA citizen and I am a Canadian citizen. Can he apply for me in any way, I am 29 married ????

I'm assuming you're asking if you can get US citizenship through your father.

If your father was a US citizen when you were born, you may also qualify for US citizenship depending on how long he was resident in the US.

If your father became a US citizen after you were born, he could not sponsor you for citizenship because you are married (you must be an unmarried child in order for him to be able to sponsor you).

He has to have lived in the US for five years, at least two of which were after he was 14, and been a US citizen at the time of your birth. There's a lot of info about it on http://www.amcits.com If he meets those requirements then you're a US citizen by birth.

If he doesn't meet those requirements he can sponsor you on I-130, doesn't matter that you're married, that's only if an LPR applies.

If he lives in Canada and needs to file an I-130 follow these instructions: http://www.consular.canada.usembassy.go ... lative.asp

The usual show stopper is if he isn't up-to-date on his tax filings in the US.
