Please advice...

1. I am planning to do landing in Vancouver even though my intend stay was toronto at the time of filing PR under FSW. Do any of you see any issue with that?

2. I am planning couple of days trip and return to USA. If while landing officer says that you will get PR card once you come to canada for good, then can I return back to usa and fax the form with canadian address to get the PR card at my friends address in canada? Do I have to go back to canada with some specific time frame?

3. After coming back to usa from canada, what if I plan to go again to canada after a year and we have a new addition in our family. Will that be any issue?

Please advice...THanks.

1. No
2. You can try, but there is a very good chance that you may have to return to Canada to pick it up, if CIC doesn't believe you.
3. You would have to return to Canada to sponsor the child.

YOU CAN LAND AND RETURN BACK TO US..PROVIDED YOU HAVE SOMEONE IN CANADA THAT WILL HELP TO GET YOUR PR CARD AND FORWARD TO U IN USA...MIND YOU YOU ARE ON YOUR OWN,IF YOU MISPLACE YOUR PR CARD..PLEASE BE WISE AND GOODLUCK...
