Landing: Blue Water Bridge: 3.25 CDN to get to the US, 3.00 to get back to Canada. We had originally wanted to go shopping, but on the bridge discovered there was one person with a VOIDED passport. So, U turned, and came back. We explained what we wanted to do with the landing at the...

Thank you for your reply. I have looked under the website, however they do not say whether one can "Land" there during the weekend. Guess I'll have to break down and call them, and hope the person on the other end of the phone is more accurate than some of the folk working the call centre. ^^...

Hello! COPR came back; they gave the wrong last name to the sponsor. Should we be concerned? Suggestions? We're hoping to land this Sunday at the Blue Water Bridge. Does anyone know if we can land on a weekend? Greatly appreciating answers, please? Thank you!

COPR came back; they had it since January 16, and we just got it back today on February 13. We don't have a car so we sent it XPress post National both ways. Hoping to cross at the Blue Water Bridge next weekend; called them up right now and they said it was a toll bridge. Fair enough...

Congratulations on 20 years of marriage! =D Although it may seem strange to you or I, they DO like wedding photos. It's always better to send a good quality sampling of your time together, for instance in your case a photo or two from before marriage, wedding photo (1 or 2) and a pic from...

Enfin! Beaucoup de joie! We are SO HAPPY for you!

XD ppr today for the husband. all the worry, gone

Opinions on the following unhappy scenarios, please? Medical expires March 15, 2012. Scenario 1: CIC merrily processes our request, and drops a PPR February 20th-ish to March 15th, effectively giving us no time to have the passport returned and book a rental car to and from the States...

This is an excellent question, especially since after your wife lands in Canada she will still want to fill out taxes faithfully year after year. The US has a law out that they want every American to file, no matter where in the world they are. I believe that also includes Green Card holders...

We have given them EVERY LAST ITEM WE HAD, and this is all we had! Then, after photocopying it, we sent it out. Then we had a flood, and lost EVERYTHING, including the receipt (lots of baby pictures from my son, too! =( ). Both our hard drives crashed around the same time, losing all our...

If your father is sponsoring you to Canada, you will be under the age of 22, not married (or in a married-like relationship), and his dependant. Your nationality is not known to us. Care to share the circumstances further, please? (ie., if your Dad is a citizen other than Canadian, married...

ddobro2, I have a question for you about the tinyurl Buffalo_Immigration chart you have as your signature, please? Green means "YAY - DONE FOR THEM!" - They got their PPR and/or have landed. Does yellow or orange mean anything in particular, or are they just colours to differentiate between...

This is untrue. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/work/index.asp is all about temporarily working in Canada. Some jobs do not require a work permit. The jobs that do take more time than a quick visit to the local friendly Immigration Officer at the border to acquire. There is a way! It's not...

You sound like you have it covered with what you are able to show. There tends to be little to no bias against the man being older, even by three decades, to the woman. Put it the other way around though and there's a HUGE red flag, even if it's by ten years. Since you are in the more...

Reading the thread to scope out some opinion on whether the good folk at Buffalo would be working on our applications next week, even if for a part week. So far, it seems that only one person touched on that musing and figured, 'no'. Is there a way for us to find out? Be it far from me to...

Thank you for the link! I also appreciate the other info. Here's hoping! =D Happy holidays to one and all!

May I have a link where this is, or is this just mentioned in the forums, please? I have been looking for a 'hard yes' on this, so to speak. XD In the meantime, hoping that we're not flashed an outright denial or an interview. Please, Buffalo Visa Officers, Please Oh Please let me be with...

With 'medical results received' appearing October 15, and 'in process' showing up on December 6, we're all on tenterhooks at the moment. I'm thinking the worst, of course, because that's the ray of sunshine I am. ^^ The PLUS side is that we've only been waiting 175 days, as of this day...

Our file went to 'in process' as of December 6, 2011. I have a feeling we'll need to send EVERYTHING back in again; medical, police certificates and possibly pictures. grah. Guess that means another 11 more months to go. Here's hoping at least we get an approval at the end, preferably...
