What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?

I am a US green card holder and will be marrying a Canadian citizen. I am looking into moving to Canada after the wedding (August 2008). I really do not want to lose my status in the US. What are my options? Can he file for me in Canada before I get my US citizenship? By the way, I just received my green card about 18months ago. Please help!!!!


Thanks

If you are permanently moving to Canada, you WILL lose your US permanent resident status because you cannot live abroad and still maintain this status. By definition, being a US permanent resident means that you intent to reside in the US.
