    Going on Vacation with Expired Pr card

    I think I get it. It's not the PR card per se. It's proving you're a resident. But the airline will only accept PR card as this proof whereas the actual port of entry may accept drivers licence or other reasonable documents. Maybe even expired PR card. Is it something like that?

    Going on Vacation with Expired Pr card

    I keep seeing this land border in a private vehicle thing. Is this believed to be a reliable route? Are border agents generally OK? Really appreciate the replies so far.

    Going on Vacation with Expired Pr card

    So are they more lenient at land borders? I think my plan will be to fly from Mexico to Fargo then drive the couple of hours north to Winnipeg.

    Going on Vacation with Expired Pr card

    Do they let you into the US without a return ticket? Or maybe an ESTA is enough? I'm in Manitoba so I guess I could fly to Minnesota and cross the border.

    Going on Vacation with Expired Pr card

    Going on Vacation with Expired Pr card

    Hello, looking for advice or feedback. I've been resident in Canada for over 10 years now. My 2nd PR cars expired in may. I applied for renewal in September, thinking this would be plenty of time to get my new card so that I can join my UK family in Mexico for a week in April 2022. Now I am...

    My very positive experience. Very quick approval.

    Thought my story might give a little encouragement. My partner was approved as my sponsor in December 2010. Seoul visa office received my application on January 24th this year. My status became "in process" on April 7th and I received a letter asking me to send my passport. Passport...
