I have a bank statement and a letter showing a USD $11K balance (CAD $14K) and another bank statement with a $5K USD balance. I also have stocks and crypto in my name. Do I need to show this as well? How do I declare it? On the E677 form...

I’m driving to Canada from the US to confirm my PR. I have a single-entry visa. On some websites, I see that it says that if I declare my car on the form I am exempt from import taxes. On some other websites (and according to some comments on this forum), it says this is not the case. I’m...

I am in the US. I am driving to Canada to confirm my PR in a few days. I don't have a car now but I know the make and model of the car I am going to buy in the next few months. Can I declare the car with the make and model in the bsf186/bsf186a form so I can bring it to Canada the next time I...

Help needed. I am worried: My AOR is Nov 2020 and I already submitted proof of funds back in 2020. Didn't hear anything for 2 years. But last month I received a request from IRCC asking for medicals, proof of funds and PCC. I don't have a minimum balance of ~13K CAD average for the last 6...

Currently on an H1B awaiting a Canadian PR approval. I was wondering if I work for 5 months outside Canada and return for 1 month to the US and repeat this process again and again to maintain my H1B status would there be any problems during Green Card processing, H1B extension, etc. I was told...

I know we're not supposed to work outside the US on an H1B for extended periods of time (more than 180 days). But if one works for 5 months outside the US (in my case Canada) and returns for 1 month and then goes outside the US for another 5 months by maintaining an H1B status while working in...

I called IRCC and I got to know that the processing office is in Montreal. Is Montreal a slow or a fast VO. (My AOR was Nov 2020, FSW outland, no update after Biometrics in Dec 2020)

I don't want to immigrate until Jan 2022. What are my options other than soft-landing? AOR - November 2020 Medicals - March 2020 Biometrics - January 2021 Medicals shows as "You do not need a medical exam. We will send you a message if this changes." in MyCIC. - Since my Medicals already...

IRCC asked me for my current physical address and gave me 1 week to respond to it. Is this normal? I heard on a forum somewhere else that this is usually followed by a PPR. Is that true?

Hello I came to the US on an F1 visa. I got my H1B in Dec 2019. I have never traveled outside of the US since Aug 2016. I haven't had my H1B stamped yet (valid till March 2023). My Canada PR is processing and I expect it to be processed end of the year or early next year. So if I get my PR...

My AOR is on Nov 27th. I work in Toledo, Ohio. I want to commute to work from Windsor, ON (1 hour 15 min drive) to fulfill my residency requirements as soon I get my PR. I am not a permanent resident but on an F1 and an H1B visa in the US for the past 3+ years. Can I apply for a NEXUS card as...

If you are a Canadian Permanent Resident is it legal to travel to Canada and work from home in Canada from the US and work from home in Canada for few weeks? (My status in the US is an H1-B)

I just received my AOR on the 6th. but I took a medical exam back in March. Will I be asked to take it again?

When I joined the firm I am pretty sure I was told the attorney fee includes the government fees of $1400 CAD approx. Now I am being asked to pay the $1.4K government fee. This must be a mistake on their part and I am waiting for clarification. I just want to know from someone here who has...

Hello I still haven't received my ITA. But my medical was taken on March 2020 so if I get my PR approved before March 2021 I may be asked to do a soft landing on or before March 2021. This was not my plan as I had not anticipated the COVID crisis. My plan currently is to do a soft landing and...

Hello I received my (1) India PCC (2) US PCC (current country of residence) (3) Upfront medical exam in January and February and March respectively. I didn't know there would be a long pause due to COVID19. Now which of these are now invalid and which ones I need to reapply for?

1. I haven't received an ITA. But I underwent a medical examination in March of this year. Will I be asked to do it again if I get my ITA this month or next month? 2. Also, I see that the COPR expiry is dependent on the medical. So does that mean I will only get until March 2021 to land in...

This is making me rethink whether gift deeds are safe for submitting as POF. Can someone tell me if they know any instances of gift deeds being denied as POF? If not, can someone give me the exact procedure of obtaining a gift deed from my mother?
