I'm sure by the time I post this you'll have gotten to the part where Debbi corrected me and I apologized for posting before reading/researching.

Although, the rules MAY be different for Canadians (and again, I haven't researched this).

So there's a difference in illegal aliens depending on where they live? If so, then Canadian's must fall under a different rule. I married a Canadian and he did not AUTOMATICALLY gain citizenship because we were married. We still had a long drawn out process to go through with INS, but in the end, he does get to apply for citizenship. That process only took 3 1/2 years, which is far less than 18, so again, I'm wondering, are there different rules that apply depending on your country of birth....seems odd....
