Hey,
So i've been to see my Girlfriend, who lives in Ontario,twice now, both times for 3 weeks, and am about to go out for an extended stay of 6 months. I'm not sure however how to fill out the immigration card this time.
We've spoken together about it and we both can't figure it out, Due to it having a number of days. Do i just put half a years worth of days into the card or do i leave the length of time blank and take it upto the immigration people?
Also, will i be baggage searched again due to having such a long stay? I know i'm visa exempt and also that 6 months is my longest allowed stay without a visa before i have to leave.
The first time i went over i got a bag search and it was a bit of hassle, I've nothing to hide, it's just kind of an irritating factor.
I will be staying with her and her parents, and they will be supporting me throughout the 6 month stay.
I only have a one-way ticket booked due to the fact i'm unsure when i'll be coming back within the 6 months, but will be leaving within that time. I have emailed the airline and they said that i'll be able to board the plane and fly out, but i may be questioned by the Canadian Border Control.
I know they will want to speak to her parents about me staying with them. Her mother gave me her Cell number so if they did give me any hassle about staying with them that they could call her and talk to her about the situation.
Will immigration penalize me for any of this, such as turn me away and put me on the next flight home?
Thanks.
