    PR Portal "Photos missing"

    Update on this. After resubmitting my wife's application, and using the webform to send a screenshot of the photos in the application as well as the original photos. One month later, got another Returned application with "Photos missing" again. This time when viewing the application the photo...

    PR Portal "Photos missing"

    My wife's application had the exact same message. Application was returned saying "Photos are missing" despite the photos being clearly there when viewing the application. Same declaration being incomplete, but in fact it was completed (else how did we submit it in the first place?). Seems like...

    Did you export your car from the US when you temporarily imported it?

    Yes I believe you can import permanently if you choose to. Most people moving on WP would not though, especially if you intend to return to the US after.

    Car Temporary Import -> Permanent Import After Landing As PR

    It depends really on what you intend after your work permit: If returning to US or unsure -> Do not export. Temporarily Import. (Note I was told wrongly by CBSA that I had to export it before they would let me temporarily import it) If applying for PR -> Export. Temporarily Import. Then...

    Car Temporary Import -> Permanent Import After Landing As PR

    I talked to an agent via Border Information Services today. She said because I have already exported it, I have to return to the border crossing I initially surrendered the Title to with the car, and CBSA will process a new Form 1. Unfortunately that border crossing is not the one I am...

    No, I moved on a work permit too, which is why I replied initially to your questions about converting from temporary -> permanent import. I just received my CoPR and have the same questions as you. I will probably give the Border Information Service a call.

    Car Temporary Import -> Permanent Import After Landing As PR

    Well either you got lucky or I got shafted! I was initially under the impression I did not have to export my car from the US to temporarily import it, but when I crossed the border, the CBSA officer would not give me the Form 1 without exporting it. Since I didn't have the ITN, I had to drive 3...

    Car Temporary Import -> Permanent Import After Landing As PR

    Hi there, I crossed the border and tried to get Form 1 but was informed by CBSA I had to export it from the US first. So based on my experience, yes - you will need to export it from the US. If you are a US citizen you can do it yourself. You will need an EIN, register for AES, file export...
