    I recommend you carry proof of funds even if they are in the USA or any other country (as long as they are in your name). Immigration officer has right to deny you entry/landing if you fail to produce POF. it could also be possible that they don't ask you for POF. As per CIC website minimum...

    it is ok to take your car with US license plates to Canada for landing & then come back. custom officials highly encourage you to list all good & vehicles that you intend to bring to Canada (during landing or later) for good. I'm not going to import my car at any stage (will sell when I move)...

    Hi immigrantUSCAN just take your own car. they don't mind. I'm saying that from my personal experience ;) frankly, your license plate expires every year so in order to renew it you either go to USA & prove them you stay there or you have to switch your plates to Canadian (at which point you have...

    congrats!!! :) you don't need to include extra envelope. just print Xpresspost label and send it with passport(s). CPC returns passport in their own envelope

    Insurance will technically cover your cost depending on if doctor is in your insurance network. But most doctors won't accept payment by insurance for immigration purposes as they don't get full price for their services & will cause delays in sending your information over since most insurances...

    I think I read on one of these forums where people just printed PPR email & gave cover letter to local visa office (in your case will be CPC-O) explaining change of physical location with passports. CPC-O should be able to issue you a visa without any problems. good luck to you :)

    few days after passport request (in some cases few days before passport request) your status will change from "In Process" to "Decision Made". it has no bearing on passport sent. you just got to wait ::) ::) ::)
