    Landing by plane using PR Travel Document

    Ok thanks again! Another thing to note is that maybe I might need to travel again outside Canada after 1 week. Can I fill out the form and ask my cousin to send a post-dated application after 2 weeks? Or will they need me to physically be in the country on the date of application?

    Landing by plane using PR Travel Document

    Thanks for your reply. It is within 180 days. I tried submitting my address via a webform but they couldn't find me in the system. Out of the following, which is the better alternative: 1. Calling up CIC / visiting an office after I land? 2. Waiting for 180 days to end (in 2 weeks), and then...

    CoPR Activation, F-1 Visa Expired, Second Masters / CPT

    So the thing is - I didn't join a Day - 1 CPT college. I joined Rutgers University for my second masters, had 2 semesters (around 9 months) of unemployement, and then started CPT, and have accumulated total of > 1 year of employment at multiple organizations. Would that make my case better?

    CoPR Activation, F-1 Visa Expired, Second Masters / CPT

    I have spoken to the International Student Services department of the school I go to. They said travel should be ok. Also, US immigration lawyers usually don't get involved in F-1 much, as they get fees through H-1, and some even suggested me to ask my school. However, I am mainly looking for...
