did they stop everyone who passed the self serve kiosks or did they stop you because of the date you filled? was this something the machine picked up and then alerted the agent? how did it work?

Hi thanks. Just replied to your message. Take care

Good of you, in the same situation here. Been away from Canada for 4 years. Planning to return soon. Can u please share more how the self-serve kiosk worked, did the agent ask you anything ? Anything else you could share would be great. Thanks

Leon, What do you mean by a "Canadian citizen child can be used to protect the PR of the parents". Do you mean if the parents are PR but one child is a Canadian citizen (by birth e.g.) makes a difference when it comes to maintaining PR status???

Yes carrying my passport is clear. I have a new passport though which does not include any evidence of my entry back in 2009. Either way, having read through tons of posts it seems going through the self-serve kiosks at the airport may be an easier option......my PR card expires August 2014 (i...

Forgot, i read a post saying you can enter Canada by car by just showing a valid PR card, and not passport? is this true? Still, they may ask for how long you've been away from Canada, in my case, 4 years......

Thanks! Since landing in 2009, I now have a new passport so i guess they wouldn't pick up my details in any case. But you never know. It seems several posts allude to the fact that entering Canada by land/car could be an easier option, i.e. some Canadian friends could pick me up...don't know if...

I have read several places people who do not require visas for Canada that they can enter that way (I do not need a visa and have not been in Canada since i landed back in August 2009, now I'd like to return.) But, on the declaration card you are supposed to include for how long you will stay...

Hi and thanks. Yes i do want to return but guess just anxious as to whether or not i will get in without being reported.....with the self-service line i believe i read there's an agent who will still check your documents, in my case PR card and passport, i don't need a visa....then she/he will...

just a quick question: what are the self-serve lines? how does it work? I have been out of Canada for 4 years and would like to return. my PR card expires August 2014.....i am a citizen of Norway. I am in a similar situation with other people it seems and i have read that if you have a valid PR...

I just posted this to another thread but reposting here....landed as PR back in August 2009, stayed 2 weeks, left and have not been back since. I would like to return now but unsure what to do really. My PR card expires August 2014. I do have my SIN but not health card. I am a national of...

Hello, I am a national of Norway and we landed in Canada back in 2009, stayed 2 weeks, left and have not been back since. I was employed for an international aid organization overseas during this time. Now i would like to return, but unsure what to do and the risks involved. If we were to...
