I'd suggest mid day, no rush hour. And yes, you do have to drive across the bridge but the US won't let you in (unless you're a citizen, but you can still ask to be turned back) so there's a place you can turn around and go back.

Yes, exactly! We left the crabby folks at the Rainbow bridge and got landed like 20 mins later by the friendly folks at the Queenston-Lewiston bridge.

When I landed 4 years ago last month, I remember that folks said go to Peace Bridge or Queenston/Lewiston Bridge because they're crabby at the Rainbow Bridge. Can confirm this is still the case. I went with someone to do her flagpoling today and we tried first at the Rainbow Bridge and even...

Took the oath on August 16th!! Woooohoooo!!

If you read the book, you'd have to try hard to fail it. I spent a few days reading and testing myself. It is not hard and I was kind of annoyed that I studied as hard as I did. Got 20/20.

I think I'm actually on the April one. Sorry about that!

If you are eligible, get in the pool! I applied halfway through my masters program and got PR. Going from international student to PR is amazing. I just happened to have all my documents ready when scores were hovering around 425. Today, I would be out of luck. Get in the pool!

I paid domestic as soon as my PR status was confirmed. They even backdated it to the beginning of the term.

Why not apply for EE while you're on your study permit if you qualify? One has nothing to do with the other. I came on a study permit in 2016, applied for PR in 2017 and got it. When my PR went through, they canceled my study permit because I didn't need it anymore.

Yes, it's black and white, but make sure your scan is in color. I purposefully included a background (part of the table) so that they could see that while the document is black and white, the scan is not. Worked for me!

I withdraw Canadian dollars from my US bank account all the time. The conversion fee is about 3%. Not sure about if your USD bank is located in a place other than the States.

Did mine at Ft. Erie (Peace Bridge) on a Wednesday, I think. They will do them M-Th no problem. Super easy, told the US side what I wanted and they sent me back to the Canadian side. Canadian officer asked for a refusal slip, but I explained I didn't have once since I am a U.S. citizen...

Has anyone successfully made it through to an agent since IRCC changed their menus? I've been trying all day and have had no luck.

Thank you to everyone on this board who provided advice and support during this journey. I landed two days ago at the Peace Bridge (smooth as could be - go Monday through Thursday!) and wanted to share how I passed the medical exam with a chronic condition which could trigger the excessive...
