I am need of some advice and was hoping you guys would be able to help me.
Here is the situation:
I applied for PR under CEC in Nov 2013.
My wife and I have BOWP and work visa that are valid till Jan 2015.
I received an email from CIC stating that my PR is approved and that i need to send my passports to Ottawa for the PR Immigrant visa stamping.
My wife and I need to travel to the US for 15 days on 4th of July 2014. Lets say I get my passports back from stamping on 20th of June 2014.
I plan to cross the Canada-US Border by land i.e. Niagara Falls and activate my PR Status. I am aware that this will also initiate my request for PR card and it will take around 3 months.
Our tickets to US are already booked and we fly from Toronto Airport on 4th of July.
My question is, since the single entry PR visa is already used, can we use our Work visas to fly back to Toronto? Will it cause any issues?
I do understand that driving to Buffalo and taking a flight from the Buffalo airport is an option.
But are there any other options?
Is it possible that i not use the single entry PR visa till I get back from US ? and then use it to do a land border crossing?
Please help.
Sorry for the long post.
