    Thank you for the response @OolongLikeALittlePuppy I'll keep a tab on cic's website for the latest entry requirements. The AVR part I understand can be pulled off if I have all the requisite H1B approval notices, LCA, payslips etc. Will be ready with the documentation. Thanks!

    Automatic Visa Revalidation (AVR) to enter USA

    Thank You so much for the response @AjeyaGupta! My H1B extension was filed in premium mode a couple of days ago and I hope to have the approval documentation in the next few days before I travel to Canada. I'll be prepared to quarantine myself, if I am asked to.

    COPR and coronavirus

    Hi all, Has anyone with CoPR entered Canada from US by road in the recent times? If yes, are the procedures any different now in the light of COVID screening? I understand that travel to Canada now requires a COVID test conducted 3 days before entry into Canada. I am guessing the same rule...

    COPR and coronavirus

    Thanks for confirming Klaverveld! I have another novice question - You said that all i need is CoPR with PRV. I know that i have a CoPR with a validity until 25th Feb. But, what does it mean to have a CoPR with PRV? Is getting a PRV a distinct process from having a valid CoPR? If yes, how do i...
