Hello folks,

I may need some assistance here. I live in the US. I have a Temporary visiting visa for Canada and was planning to visit Toronto for my US visa stamping. Meanwhile I submitted my FSW application and looks like it got processed and I am waiting to receive my passports next week with the PR visa on it. I have already scheduled my US visa interview date in January-2014. I just got a confusion now that - will the immigration officer allow me into Canada as a tourist to attend the interview? Or since the PR visa is already there on the passport, will he ask me to immigrate instead of allowing me as a tourist?

I already read about the "dual intent" process but that is possible when the PR process is "in progress". But for me I would have already got my PR visa on the passport. Please help if anyone has any idea on this kind of situation! Thanks.
