Just this week I was flying back from Europe and at the airport before boarding, we needed to show our ArriveCan, our immunization, etc.. Someone ahead of me in line was asked by the airline service person to show his PR as he was a non-Canadian citizen but a permanent resident. This is where...

I think the biggest change/issue is the ArriveCan. There we need to indicate whether we are a resident or visiting. Would it be OK just to indicate on the ArriveCan that we are visiting rather than residence? This would make things simple, but perhaps would be an issue with the CAD border...

Thank you, @scylla, for sharing your experience. It is interesting that I have been traveling to Canada from Europe for years now on one way tickets (both with my Canadian family and also without) and have never been hassled by the airline. Strange that they gave your husband such problems. I...

@penewpr - Thank you for the quick reply. So good to hear. We were wondering whether we need to change all of our plans as a result of what I first understood. As you say, there has been no US citizen who has landed that I have found here or outside this forum that have had problems traveling...

I am in a similar situation as a US who has landed and is waiting for his PC card. I will be traveling together back from the US with Canadian spouse via plane this month and then next month from Europe by myself. Would you be able to let us know how your American partner fares coming back to...

i received a prearrival letter on August 19th. Then a passport request on September 9th. My application was in Warsaw but in September I was already in Canada until Christmas so I let them know. On September 22nd, Warsaw office then sent the following: "Your file has been updated. Further...

Thank you! That is simple enough as we have a house that we are staying at and no return ticket for now.

Thank you, Armoured! If I do that, the app states that I will need to "demonstrate the intent to stay for a period of at least 15 days." How can I "demonstrate my intent"? Is there any requirement for this?

I will be traveling from the US to Canada via car tomorrow with my Canadian wife and Canadian child. I am a US citizen who has applied for permanent residency in Canada. My family and I have a residence in Europe where we have been staying 7 months out of the year. We also have a house in...

Thank you, JClark99 and Naheulbeuk, for the advice.

My wife is a Canadian/US citizen. She is employed by a Canadian organization. My wife pays taxes in Canada, has an RRSP and a couple of Canadian bank accounts. I am an American citizen and work for an American organization. We both have lived in Europe for the past 28 years and have a home...

Thank you.

I realized I didn't give enough context so I gave much more info. Hopefully what I am asking is more clear.

My wife is a Canadian. We have been married more than 25 years and most of that time we have lived in Europe. 7 years ago my wife started working for a Canadian organization, pays Canadian taxes and has been considered a Canadian resident. Also 7 years ago we started to stay in Canada on...

Thank you! that sounds like a great approach.

During the past 10 years, I traveled a lot in Europe for business and sometime leisure but only had one residence. However, I also visited the US and Canada often, sometimes for months. I am thinking of not indicating trips within Europe but I will mentioned the trips small and great to North...

My wife and I have been living in Canada for 5 months out of the year and the rest in Europe. There are a good deal of questions in the application concerning where one resides. I have decided to answer with our address in Europe. However, in the schedule A Background / Declaration form...

Thank you.

The immigration application guide calls for a police certificate from the country that you have lived in the most from age 18. The country where I have lived can issue a statement for 1. criminal record and also if desired 2. administrative infractions (such as parking and speeding tickets)...
