US Citizenship for day trader as a Canadian
Does anybody know a way I can acquire a green card as a day trader who is from Canada (specifically Alberta). I’m currently 17 and have recently gone full time on day trading and I am thinking about leaving (these -30 days have got me fucked up and I just wanna get out of here since it messes with my mental health and my overall life.)
I am currently deciding between somewhere in Hawaii or Miami. With Hawaii I have found it extremely positive for my mental health and feel connected to nature and actually excersise more, and with Miami I find myself walking a lot more and simply enjoying my work a lot more along with simply making more money here.
Taxes aren’t a huge concern for me as a lot of stuff I currently spend on is a write off from separate businesses I have with my business partner.
As I am still 17 I am likely ineligible for many things, but how would I be able to go about getting a green card to live in one of my options within the next couple of years?
Thanks for any help that can be provided!
