Got my visa stamped in Buffalo. Crossed over to Canada via Niagara. Refused entry! I went alone and was asked to re-enter with the whole family. I'll try again around Memorial Day.
What happened???

I had the COPRs for my whole family which I picked up from the Buffalo VO. At the border they asked how long I was going to stay. Told them I was there for 'landing' and intend to go back to US for a few months. I presented the bank draft as POF. But they insisted that I come back with my whole family. I thought I didn't have any basis for arguing.
This forum has been very helpful.
What are the chances they'll stop me again?

Thanks for sharing valuable suggestions/Tips.
I joined this forum very late but it did helped me to learn.

I got my Passport back with Visa Stamped from buffalo office.

Here are some Tips I got from the Forum

I renewed passports to get visa till my medical date (Maximum).
I submitted only the new passport not old one.
I submitted return envelope without address and updated later with a request letter (My learning experince).

I wish everyone to go through this immigration process successfully.

I would say 0% they'll stop you and your family next time. Take it easy and accompany your family as soon as possible finishing landing procedures...
