Hi Wally1961 I recieved PR from Buffalo in January and it took almost 4 weeks after we sent my passport. *sidenote... You don't actually have to send your passport into Buffalo you can just simply photocopy the bio data page and submit your pictures, just in case you might need the passport to...

I just attempted to make an appointment to land within Canada at a CIC office and it takes three weeks to get a letter mailed to tell you when your appt is.... I got some info from the nice lady on the phone that it would be another 6 weeks AFTER I receive the letter. 9 weeks total. This was for...

Thanks ddobro!

Does anyone know if you can land at any border crossing? And are there certain hours in which you have to land? I've googled for hours you'd think it would be an easy question!! Thanks!

I'm not sure if the letter of PPR approval is the same generic one for everyone, mine stated that a photocopy of the bio-data page of the passport could be sent in place of the actual passport... Our attorney followed these instructions since i will need my passport to travel home for the...

Wish I knew....? :-\ Very straight forward case... Hubby played hockey in my hometown for WHL, dated 5 years, got married. Tons of proof, hired a good lawyer, no clue why we took so long. On the bright side I became a good cook and an even better wife in a year! Just glad to be wrapping it...

I had no idea! I checked out CBSA also (wasn't second guessing you, I promise ::) ) I'm thinking I will just hold on to my passport. I was refused entry and issued an exclusion order 3 years ago, so each time I cross the border they pull me into their really neat private office and give me the...

Hey Calgary-bound I posted in the Buffalo thread but thought I'd catch you here too... I got PPR today and my BF date was Nov 21 hopefully you can use this to start a countdown?? (maybe one of those paper chains that you tear off a link each day haha!) ;) Thanks so much to everyone (especially...

PPR today!!! :D ;D ;) :) :o ;D Calgary-bound my bring forward date was Nov 21 and we have similar timelines so hopefully you are very very close!! Good luck! Has anyone returned to the states before submitting their passport for visa issuance? Hubby and I have a trip home next wed and I...

Thanks so much for the reply and your PM Calgary-bound! I had my medicals done in the US so they would only be valid a year. I saw this on another thread.. Still waiting to hear back from our attorney, I'm so confused. :-\

Okay thanks I really appreciate it! Maybe I will phone the CIC office here in Saskatoon tomorrow and they might have answers as well.

Thanks Charlie! Do you happen to know how I would go about extending them?

Still waiting also :(

Hi all. I had to take a break from the site, sometimes it really gets me down knowing how many cases after us are done :/ I just want life to resume again....... My medicals are about to expire on Dec 21, does anyone know the process about extending medicals? They need to be valid for landing...

I agreed stumpedmom. Only info requested should be offered. My situation was outlined before we were married. I had less trouble when we were just dating than I ever had when we were actually married. They did NOT want to let me in once we were married and vise versa for hubby into the states...

We had an attorney that handled everything but what he put was that it would be a hardship to leave my husband at this point in time and that he was more than financially able to take care of the basic needs as outlined by CIC. We attached a copy of his pay check stubs and signed! Make sure you...

I had the same situation. Make sure she carries with her any vehicle information she has (loan or title paperwork) that shows she has property there that she most likely wouldn't "leave" without. I was living at home as well. I got renters insurance through farmers (it covers all her...

We slipped off the 1st page! Any movement for anyone?

I love this thread! What a great thing to remind us all of why it's worth it! My story is very stereotypical of Canada... Haha My husband was playing hockey (of course) where I live in the states. We were introduced by friends, dated for 3 years while he played hockey in town and spent the...

Yes we already had it but for some reason the attorney was holding it until requested? Now I'm bummed I thought this was procedure... Maybe we could have had PR today?? :(
