It is a long procedure and there are two ways to do it...from within Canada or he stays in the US. You two should be married first because there is no fiancee' application any more.
Once you figure out how which application you want to do, you can down load them off the CIC website. They have application guides that you can look at in order to help you get started. If you do the application from within Canada be prepared to support him. The sponsorship agreement that you signs means that you are financially responsible for him for at least 3-10years. He won't be able to work unless he has a previous job offer. But he can look for work and the company that hires him will have to do an labour market assessment & get a confirmation. Then you can apply for a work visa outside Canada. A sponsorship application you can apply for an open work visa. Which is the only application that you can do it. There is a toll free number to call in order to get answers.
The fees are around $1200 but that isn't including paperwork he needs and stuff you need to keep in order to prove the relationship is genuine.
Trying going to the local immigration office and talk to an immigration officer about the paper work. It is a very long drawn out process, be prepared for ups and downs but you will do just fine.
Cheers

you may develop right into a citizen of Canada by using marriage in case you want and in case you fulfill Canadian immigration regulation. children less than 18 ought to correctly be followed by using your fiance, yet children over 18 (and reckoning on which u . s . a . you at present stay) will be unable to be followed except the children were raised by using the man desirous to undertake them. followed children ought to have the probability to develop into Canadian electorate in the journey that they fulfill Canadian immigration regulation to boot. on your case, Canadian immigration regulation ought to enable human beings to develop into everlasting electorate by using marriage or adoption even as not residing in canada, yet for citizenship after being an eternal resident for decades, homestead in Canada should be required. merely excellent is to communicate over with an immigration legal specialist, even if you do not plan on residing in Canada.

Why would anyone who is an American want to change citizenship? Especially to become CANADIAN! Explain that one, please!
