What to do if I decide to emmigrate from Canada to the US?
I have a wife and a kid, wife is a university graduate and I’m a business owner. Not sure if it helps but I am wealthy and will bring my capital with me. I’m in no rush as I have 2 businesses in Canada. What’s the process like, are there firms that handle this, how long does it take on average and what’s the average cost?

The best way to ascertain you and your family getting a visa to come to the United States is to consult with an immigration attorney that has been recommended to you. given the fact that you are wealthy and supposedly will invest in the United States in a business, you should be able to get the required visa to come to this country fairly easy and quick given you are a Canadian national.
Estimate would be 4 to 5 months and costs about $4,500 to $7,000 for you and your family to get what you desire as a legal visa for this country.
