No entry stamp

[ayaanproducts]

Hi I recently just arrived in Vancouver canada

The process I went though in customs was I went up to the primary inspection kiosk scanned my passport, took my photo and submitted my declaration.

Afterwards I went to the CBSA Officer which after he asked my the usual immigration questions but he stamped the receipt from the kiosk instead of my passport.

Is this a new protocol in the Canadian government not to stamp passports now or will I get in trouble for not having a entry stamp?

Thanks

Yes, this is the new process.

No, you won't have any problems for not having an entry stamp. Also, you're allowed to stay for up to 6 months although your TRV is valid only for two months

My advice: No, don't apply when you're in NY.

Do wait until you're back in Pakistan.... a few months have passed after this visit before you reapply.

Your current TRV is like a 'test visa of a very short validity' to help you attend the exhibition. You wouldn't want to incorrectly indicate to IRCC that you have plans to return almost immediately + your ties are not strong in the US as compared to Pakistan
