Will be moving to Canada end of the month, but my lease at my current place is good for two more months. Wondering if I can bring some stuff with me now and then come back to wrap up the home in May and bring everything else then? The reason to do so is because i don't have a place in Canada...

No, only the times that I flew across is when I got a new i94. Other times they just verified the date on the stamp.

Thanks for that . Didn't know about that rule.

The iTA works based on points, so doesn't really matter if your profile is old or new. It has no bearing on the iTA. I got iTA at the first draw after profile creation. I did have significantly higher score than yours but disregarding that, it doesnot have any bearing on the age of the profile...

Well it might be better if you take IELTS again. The funny thing with the IELTS scores is that you don't really need to be acing the scores on all the sections. Certain sections like Listening has a lot more weightage on the CRS score than say writing. So play with the scores on the CRS tool and...

Yes When I got mine done. I printed the fingerprint card on regular A4 paper and took it to the local PD where they were able to use that to take my fingerprints and I had no issues getting the FBI verification.

I have personally used AVR on atleast 7 occasions in the last year. 4 times I flew across the border and 3 times i drove. Had no issues at all. At the airports they do ask to see your i797 and will stamp your passport however on land borders they don't even stamp your passport. Flew from...

Hey sorry for the late response. Got really busy with work. But I went to our local pharmacy store. Not a chain like rite aid or walgreens. The guy said he could take the pictures and then print them on regular paper and we can then measure according to the requirements and he could cut it for...

Thanks!! I am not sure why I never thought of doing that!! But I agree and yes I would pay a little extra for the peace of mind. Cheers! -P

Hi Folks!! So I am based out of NYC. I have landed but my PR Card photos got rejected twice!! Any suggestions on where to get those clicked in Northern Nj or New York City? Thanks

Hi there, To be very honest and being someone who has done this process. I would highly recommend doing the whole process yourselves. There is not much to it also, the forum here is extremely helpful and has a lot of valuable and most importantly accurate information. Also, there are a lot of...

Thanks for the reply. That does make a lot of sense. I guess I will have to get a Canadian number. I do have a Canadian address. Any suggestions on how to have a Canadian local number while staying in US? I feel that i am not at the point yet where I will be like just moving to Canada and...

Hi there folks, So i finished all Landing formalities got set up with SIN number and Bank accounts. I was wondering if someone can share some insights on the Canadian job market? I am specifically asking like trends that you have seen or know about hiring. How the hiring process works ? How...

Hey so the letter is from my US bank, the letter essentially just says that I have been with the bank since dd/mm/yyyy. What kinds of accounts I have. And that all of the accounts are in good standing. It also mentions the current balance on the account and a 6 month average balance for the...
