Hello,
Me and my wife are both PR in Canada, I've landed in June 2009 (still not a Citizen), sponsored my US Citizen wife and landed in Aug 2019 while pregnant with my son. Now a year later we're ready to move (as Covid restrictions prevented us from doing so early in the year).
My son is turning 11 months on Aug 26th and he was born here in the US, he has US Passport, and I have been staying here in the US for almost a year now. I came here in Sep 2019 after filing for parental leave for 35 weeks to be present for my son's birth, went back to Canada from Dec 10, 2019 to January 19, 2020 due to my father suffering hemhorragic stroke to which he later passed away from, came back to the US and stayed until Feb 24-ish, went back to Canada again from Feb to March 14th because my 6 month limit was almost up and didn't want to overstay.
So I've been here in NJ since March 14, 2020, and were driving up to Canada before Sep 9th which will be about 6 months since I came here.
My questions are; what are we going to say to the border immigration officers when we go drive up? If I say that we are moving up (three of us: PR me, PR wife and US Citizen baby) will they deny us entry? Should I just say we are visiting a relative? I'm not sure how the border restrictions due to the pandemic would affect our entry and I'm asking for help, any suggestions and/or tips are very welcomed.
Thank you.
