A. She would begin the American naturalization process (assuming she's already a permanent resident) and become an American citizen. At that point, she is a dual citizen. The U.S. allows dual citizenship, it just doesn't recognize your foreign citizenships. USCIS will never ask someone to relinquish their foreign passport or their foreign citizenship. The naturalization oath is symbolic and not legally binding (the only way to actually renounce a citizenship is to go to an embassy and do it, which is not required when you become a U.S. citizen). In other words: The U.S. would consider her a U.S. citizen, subject to all U.S. laws as they apply to citizens. Canada would consider her a Canadian citizen subject to all Canadian laws. She could… [cont.]

A. You have to get permission to come to Canada to live, gain permanent residency, and after a period of time you can qualify to naturalize. You do not lose your US Citizenship in this process. Generally speaking most people need to have a necessary skill to get permission. Canada will give you a preference if you spend several years there in University and get a useful degree. Here is the website with ALL the information, including self-tests to see if you can get enough points to immigrate based on your occupation and background: Now if you go to Canada for a few years to study or on a temporary work permit perhaps you'll fall in love and have a Canadian spouse of either sex; that will allow you to get permanent residence as well. … [cont.]

A. The Commonwealth is now really a historical entity. If you want to move to the UK or another former British Colony, you have to apply for a visa, just like any other foreigner. The UK is a member of the European Union, and has economic ties to Europe, rather than its former empire. In general, immigration law is complex, with specific requirements for admission. To get a work permit in a developed country, you need a skill or profession which is in demand, with too many job openings to be filled by the host country's own citizens. Requirements for admission may include university level education, certification in a profession and relevant experience. You may also need a job offer from an employer in the host country. You may well… [cont.]
