Want to give everyone a quick update, just finished landing at the CIC office in Ottawa (235 Queens Ave). Went around 7:50am and there were 2 People in front of the line. Everything went super smooth and straightward. Don't think it took more than 10 mins and I was signed, sealed and congratulated as a PR :)
Thanks everyone here for letting me know know about this option of walking in to the Ottawa office for the landing. I prefer this to going to the border any day.

Make sure you take 2 more photos if you are going for this landing option. I took pretty much all my documents I submitted for pr but they only looked at the CoPR and passport.

My first entry date to Canada was wrong in the CoPR. When I mentioned this to the officer she said it doesn't matter. Only the last entry date should be correct.

Was a bit of a trip to come here but now I have the whole day to do some site seeing :) maybe say a quick hi to Justine ;)
Are you sure it’s walk in ? I really want to do this then

interesting! I thought visa exempt passports would get processed faster - let down :-(
I was expecting 1-2 weeks after doing a little research before sending it off.

I’ve come over from the family sponsorship section of the forum as there’s very little data available for PPRs going to Ottawa there - probably the only downfall of being in Canada under duel intent :p
