I just created a profile at the FOIA and submitted a request online for the Entry/Exit records from the CBP. Obviously my wife has no alien ID but I gave the passport number, date of birth, citizenship, place of issuing and the date range I need in the Description. Guess we'll see how long that...

Stupid me, I took the CBP to mean "Canada" and not "Customs". I guess we'll get the ball rolling on this and explain to the IRCC that we can't send their form back within 30 days. Thanks!

Which is confusing, because the Request for Supplmentary Evidence form specifically has "USA" written in...like I'd have to get the records from the USA :O

Hey Sophon :) Thanks for the info. That's what I'm confused about too..from how my wife tells it I *think* she signed a similar form after her test as well, and she mentioned authorizing them to get the info from the US as well....so I'm confused why they still gave her this Request For...

Hmm...reading over their site again, I found this... "U.S. Citizen and Lawful Permanent Resident travel is NOT provided on this website." Oh. :(

Thanks :) I was actually mucking about with that site last night...but I'm frustratingly getting "No record found for traveler" when I enter all my wife's passport info exactly as it's written in the passport (even following their guide). I tried my own as a cross-check and my Canadian one...

Hey folks! I apologize if this is probably already exhaustively discussed elsewhere (I'll keep searching as well). My wife (US Citizen, Canadian PR since 2013) applied for Citizenship back in March. Yesterday she wrote her test (19 out of 20!) and had a post-test interview. They gave her a...

Your child is the applicant (you and your wife are already PR's? was the child born outside Canada?). I am 99% sure the answer to Question #3 would be 1, and that you would not specify any additional dependents (as your child has none) at the end of the form. Also, the form needs to be signed by...

It depends on the setting too I think....for example....when my wife and I were honeymooning in Venice, we had each taken pictures of the other...so there was a photo of me covered in birds in St. Mark's Square, and another one of her. We weren't in one together but it was pretty obvious we were...

Nothing. Your child is a Canadian Citizen and always will be. But, as stated, this does not automatically let YOU become a PR or give you rights to stay in Canada.

In Canada. She had been staying with me as a Visitor on a Visitor Record which we routinely extended via the CIC Website. It was never an issue...even though we did it like 5-6 times.

Outland will absolutely be faster for an American. Your situation mirrors mine -- got married in the USA, then went through the PR process for my (American) wife. This was 2013 and she was processed in about 7 months, during which she was living with me the whole time. Is your wife going to...

I think you have as long as you want, to be honest...just tell them when you land you have a car, you'll import it at a future date. Canadian citizens import cars from the U.S. all the time, so I don't think you have a time limit on when you must do it by :) You can expect your CoPR in a couple...

As you've probably already seen elsewhere in this forum....landing is a non-event :) Anything you would have had to sweat over would have been dealt with long before a CoPR was ever issued to you :) All a landing is, is you presenting your CoPR, and getting asked the most basic of...

You can still land :) What you'll be asked to do is fill out a B4 form on which you state basically what goods you're importing that day, and also what goods you own that you'll be importing at a future date. It's simply so that you won't get nailed for duties on a future trip to Canada when you...

It's also a bit of a misconception to say that there is a two-year wait period with Condition 51. People are PR's the day they land....they simply have Condition 51 for two years. Why the heck would he get rid of that?? It's currently the only enforceable safeguard they have against sham...

Most links to forms on the CIC website give a date afterwards....this page for example: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/fc.asp#immigrate

I can't say for sure what the CIC will do....but I'm suspecting that, because you have not fulfilled your residency requirement, you will lose your PR status before you get another card. I stand corrected on this. I didn't read the fine print on the CIC until now re: accompanying a Canadian...

The B4 isn't really worth getting worked up over :) It's just a list of things that a CBSA officer will look at and realize "ok, this person is moving here so this stuff isn't stuff that's being declared for Customs". There's a pretty good chance that they won't even give it more than a glance...

We drove...we were living in Toronto at the time and that's usually been the place we crossed at whenever we visited her family in the States. We've just always liked Niagara Falls :) As you may have seen from other posts here, landing is really no big deal...if the PR application process was...
