    How do I go about knowing my entry and exit dates? This link here is where I read that renewing PR card means you do NOT have to request a travel history report.

    Entry and Exit information on form IMM 5444?

    Where is our PR card? And another important question...

    We were approved on May 21rst for PR. It has been 5 weeks and no card yet. Will we be notified when the card is mailed?

    Costco Photo

    Hello! Interview this week! The back of our costco PR photo says "I hereby certify that this is a accurate representation of..." with a blank space. Do we simply sign? Do we print names or give a signature? And I'm assuming we can write in the names of our kids who can't write their own...

    Urgent trip to border!

    We are making an urgent trip to the border to extend our kids' visitor records. Does anyone know what we need to bring along besides passports/work permit/maybe birth certificates. Also, can we just cross into the States and come back in or do we need to stay in the States for a certain time?

    Help! Child's visa expired

    Boy, they never explained about it re-setting. They basically said that the children's status is attached to my husban's (valid for three years) but that when their passports expired that would be important to re-issue the passport. They never said renewing visitor record was necessary, nor...

    Help! Child's visa expired

    I'm afraid we've made a dumb mistake. Basically, we have been asked to upload documents that we have already uploaded in our original application, namely valid passports and and proof of status for my daughter.

    Post-application update?

    Hello! We finished our CIC application in January. Back then I needed my college diploma, and despite searching high and low I could never find it. I could also not replace it sooner than 6 months. The best I could do was get an official letter from he office of the registrar attesting to...

    Filing taxes in USA AND Canada - advice?

    We moved to Canada 1.5 years ago. Last year, we used a free online tax service for our Canadian taxes and we have always used an accountant in the States. Well now we are hesitant to pay so much for a US accountant because we made no income there. We also are not sure whether or not to hire...
