    Thanks for posting your experience. I am planning to land at the same time in Calgary (11.30 PM). I will have Edmonton address for mailing. I think the part where you have to apply for Visa to come back to Canada is wrong. According to the document we have received with COPR, we have to either...

    I don't think process is smart enough to ask you for the difference. Usually they will mark the section with pay RPRF if they expect you to pay. (They did that for me when they asked to pay RPRF). I think you are all set. Now question is whether your application will be moved from Buffalo or...
