I am a us citizen and want to marry a girl from Canada who has dual citizenship, Canadian and Jamician. She would like to also become a US citizen ann reside with me here in the US. Is this possible, and if so how does one go about it.
Hello. My father was born in Canada, mother born in the US. I was born in the US. The majority of my family is Canadian and I would like to move there.

Any information would be appreciated. Oh, i have like 8 relatives in the US, and like 500+ in Canada and I would love to get to know the majority of my family better.
