Just wanted to give an update. I landed at YEG (Edmonton) yesterday and was directed to one of the self checkout counters. The declaration form with the photo that I received at that counter is all the security officer at the exit needed before letting me exit and go to the Baggage claim area...

Thank you @armoured for your inputs. Since I realistically didnt see myself meeting RO without having to severely restrict myself from traveling outside CA, I figured the only thing I could possibly try doing is utilizing my PR card as a visitors visa for the next few months, as needed. I...

Thank you for your response and inputs. I had no intention of misrepresenting facts. Was just a little anxious of complicating my own case by volunteering information that was not asked. Will try to keep it simple and straight forward. As a follow-up, will there be any scenario where in even...

Hello members, Mine's not a unique case but with a travel scheduled for Canada in less than a day, wondering what's the appropriate way respond to the questions at the immigration based on my situation. Since I got my PR back in July 2019, I havw visited Canada a couple of times, but personal...

Hello members, Reaching out for an advice on how to answer the questions at the POE based on my situation. I reside in the US and I have a Canadian PR card that's valid until July 2024. And it's last 3-4 years I only got to visit Canada a couple of times but couldn't move. And that ship has...

My plans to move to Canada never really materialized despite making soft landing back in June 2019 with an intention of returning within an year. But, being the only bread winner & having to take care of financial mess my family was in back home, I was compelled to not leave job even for a...

I apologize. I may have been using the word 'sponsor' loosely. I've heard something called 'Super Visa'. One of my friends who is a PR himself mentioned about it. He recently had his parents visit him for an extended duration on that Visa. Not sure if it is tied to the PR holders' RO being met...

Thank you. Meaning if I have not already spent 1095 days outside canada I am technically still on track to meet my RO. And I'll be only losing that privilege if I decide to travel outside Canada after entering. Right ?

Thank you @dpenabill and @armoured for your valuable inputs. If I have read the above posts correctly - once i enter and continue to stay in Canada and on track to complete 730+ days of being physically present here - I should be able to sponsor my family. Right ? That is even if I have not...

By the time I land in Canada as PR, I will be barely a few days short of burning my three year window of being able to stay outside Canada and still be eligible for PR renewal. Still will be having 730+ days. 1) I realize the risk and I was prepared for it. My question is while I continue to...

Hi Ishaan, sorry to hijack your thread, but may I ask how did the whole process and interaction with CBSA officials at the airport go upon your landing? Did they give you hard time? Can you share your experience. Will be very helpful for folks like me whose RO compliance is in a tricky zone...

Thank you @armoured for your input. And yea, I am well aware that nothing is certain in terms of how life in Canada will pan out. Everyone will have to chart out their own course. I will atleast be satisfied if moving to Canada can give me peace of mind that I have been yearning for. Also...

As the title makes it clear, I am planning on moving back to Canada from the US in March or April 2022. I landed as a PR in Canada back in June 2019 and spent only 13-14 days in total so far - including soft landing and time spent in November 2020. I have done quite a bit of back in forth in...

Thank you for answering these questions and for everything you do patiently on this forum. Last week I spent some time reading several threads that are related to the questions I may have. You and other senior members have done a great job in answering all of those questions that are more or...

Thank You for your reply. I am planning on being in Canada by December end at the earliest so that I have a few extra months of flexibility to manage any international travel in the next 2-3 years. That being said, even in the worst case scenario, March 2022 will still give me more than two...

I did soft landing in June 2019 and got back to the US immediately. I have been on H-1B visa and currently waiting for my I-140 approval & stuff before I move to Canada. If I plan onn moving to Canada in February or March of 2022 will I face any issue in re-entering the country using the PR...

My situation is not unique but I am unable to make up my mind to see what is the best path for me to get the best of both worlds (if that's even possible) My employer has filed for my PERM back in Jan '21 and the based on the current processing times Oct 2020 applications are in analyst review...

Thank you for such a detailed explanation of what amounts to "cutting it close". Hope I am not hijacking the OP's thread. But I have a question along the lines of what is the best option for me. I have returned to the US shortly after my soft landing and I received my PR card in July 19. I...

Hey guys, I received my PR card back in July. so after a few months of not thinking about this forum I logged back today just to check what's happening here. I'm surprised by how high CRS cutoff scores have gotten. I had a CRS score of 478 and back in August '18 the cuff was around 440 ish. I...
