Has anyone in the Employer Job Offer stream landed and could tell me if the border agent asked for any documents to prove the job offer? I'm taking my employment contract and a letter from my employeer confirming my employment.

I just want to take a moment to congratulate all the December applicants. You guys have struggled a lot and finally deserve this. I have been part of your frustration and i too felt it being a January applicant..i wanted December applicants to get good news soon... So big big congratulations and celebrate with a bang! Also wish for us !

The only thing they ask is to confirm your mailing address.
You only need to bring your CoPR, passport and Work Permit/Study Permit

Hi guys,
I sent my copies of passport last week and waiting for them to send me copr paper. I am thinking of landing at the border but I have a concern regarding entering the US. About six years ago, my husband overstayed in the USA for about two weeks. When he left, there was no order to leave or anything. He left with no trouble. He is going to flag pole with me at the border but we are worried that the history of him overstaying in US is going to be a problem. Please advise me on the matter if anyone has similar experience or has any idea what to do. Thanks!

well , I don't think that's going to be problem cos the US officers don't really check your passports according to my own experience . when you approach the US border you simply tell them that you are flagpoling and they will just take your passport , find a blank page and stamp on it saying flagpoling . I have to do this a lot with my boss s clients that need to get their study or work permits at the border . we usually go to Point Roberts in BC , and it has always been like this.

the point is , find a small and quiet border crossing , look normal and you will be fine . make sure you tell the US officers that you are flagpoling before handing them your passports. plus , since you are not really applying to enter the US , you are voluntarily withdrawing your application to enter the US during this process , you will be fine , that's the legal reason behind all these .

what if I have US visa? Do I still need to tell them that I wanna flagpole?

Are those the documents you took with you?

 

[PAINKILLER28]

what if I have US visa? Do I still need to tell them that I wanna flagpole?

yep , it has nothing to do with if you have a valid US visa or not if you are only flagpoling . on the other hand, if you are thinking going to US for a weekend and come back and do your landing then I will say your husband will be straightforward denied entry.

sorry , I thought you were Karen . and still yes , unless you want to actually enter the US , you will tell them that you are flagpoling, it will be much easier than apply to enter the US .

Really? It is a big relief!
I think I read somewhere that US officers take the passport and bring it back. So I thought they do some search or at lease run through their data base or something. Are you sure they are not even typing in the person’s name before they stamp on the passport?

Thank you so much!
I just wanted to make sure nothing goes wrong because we are so close to getting pr and we don’t want to mess anything up.

I can only say from my own experience sister. 10 out of 10 times they don't even bother to look at the information page in Point Roberts BC. it will be a waste of their time to run someone through their system and that person is not even trying to enter their country. oh one more thing , when you arrive at the Canadian side of the border , just park your car somewhere and walk to the US side , don't drive , cos in that case you will be setting foot in the US and that increase the chance they check your passports more carefully.
