Hello everyone. My wife and I are just finished filling out our application for Permanent Residence Status. (I am the applicant, and she is a Citizen of Canada.) And we hit and unfortunate snag. My Visitors Visa expires on January 6th. We have the application for the Visa Extension all filled out but over looked one major detail. We didn't get our Stamped Receipt due to lack of knowledge. Unfortunately we just came into the information on how to today, but our 30 day deadline to apply is in 2 days, and we have to wait two weeks for the stamp. So it seems I have to return home for a while and return to Canada before we can actually apply.
My major question I need answered is this: Is it possible to cross the boarder, and then immediately cross back to save expenses? Or do I have to wait in America for a bit before I return? Also is there any possible wiggle room for applying for my extension? Or is it the 30 days prior and nothing more.
I want to feel hopeful that because I only need the Stamped Receipt it may be possible, yet I understand these things just have there way of working. Any information at all would be a great help.
