Hi how did your landing go?
hi my experience is different from Wonderland_1010. during my landing, CBSA officer told me to answer the two questions on COPR. i was not sure if i should answer yes to the first question (ever charged/convicted..) so i showed the officer my RCMP paper (showing withdrawn charge), told him that i have submitted this to CIC during my EE application and asked him if i should sign yes or no. he told me to hold on for a sec, checked his computer, told me that CIC has this record indeed and i do not have to worry too much about it as it is on my profile. however he said i should write "yes, withdrawn (year)"

whole process took about 15-20 min only. CBSA officer was very helpful and nice.

Hi guys. I got my PR landing approved today. Weird thing though I asked whether I should answer yes to whether you been charged or convicted question and the CBSA officer said no need because as long the charges are withdrawn then I should answer no. So the officer wrote No and had me initial it.

Not sure how that will affect me for my future Canadian immigration.
congratulations on your landing!
CBSA officer who did my landing told me to write yes, withdrawn (year) on my COPR paper though.

Well for me there was no record because I was not arrested and police never took my picture and fingerprints. That's why nothing shows up in the system. I found out about the charge when I did my first landing and there was a warrant out for me. After that I got the warrant and charges dropped without attending any court.

I already informed CIC but no response and CBSA already knew about the charge because of my first attempt at landing so they told me to come back with time and date mentioned. But I asked them if the answer should be yes and they said it should be no because there is no record when they checked in the system.

But anyways I'll see if I ever got my PR card.
