Thanks for the inputs. On the west coast, cheapest I got was $300 per person, so $600 CAD for 2 of us, and I rounded that off to USD $500. But what you said about insurance accepting the claim is making sense, I will look into it. Seems like I will end up driving to Vancouver, BC. BTW, do you...

Interesting fold of events... Doctor's office in Seattle says that they accept my medical insurance and i dont have to pay anything out of pocket :O Will call them again to confirm this, but if true, it might be worth to wait for few weeks, rather than driving to canada and spending equivalent...

This is very helpful, thanks. I intend to drive up to Vancouver as well for my medicals ( i have a visitor visa, hope that would be fine). It is more than a month's wait to get an appointment in Seattle.

Just got the ITA, time to schedule Medical!

That makes two of us... I also have almost everything ready... as soon as I get the email, I just need to schedule the medical.

Its good to hear that. I applied via post and its been almost 3 weeks that they received the documents. My passport was issued in India, was yours issued here in US ?

Did you file at SF consulate and how long did it take to get the PCC?

What time does the draw usually happen? assuming we have one tomorrow.

Makes sense. Thanks for the input.

Thank you. I do plan to maintain a US residence for at least 2 nights a week as I am on the west coast and that works out well for me. So i can plan to be in the US on the day of filing, that's a no biggie, so going back toi my original question, in that case do i need to inform anyone (HR or my...

1) If one files for renewal before H1 expiry, why does one need to be in US for that? 2) And for some case if it is required to be in US, then with premium processing, one can choose to stay in US say for a month or so. So with these, my question still remains if HR and attorney really need to...

Help me understand this please, updating the Canadian address is required primarily from taxation perspective? Can someone choose not to inform the HR or attorney and start the daily commute? would it have tax or legal repercussions especially while renewing H1?

Mainly from commuting standpoint. I think others have provided moving and taxation related info here, but if you can add more it would be helpful to me and others as well.

Hello, I am also exploring this option as I work north of seattle and moving to Vancouver will work for me. Can you share your experience please? How do you manage the logistics and how often do you travel? Any information would be helpful.

Thank you for the confirmation. I too came to the same conclusion by checking on multiple forums.

Further reading on forums tells me that additional details regarding children needs to be added post ITA, but a confirmation from senior members would help

Not sure if this is the right forum to ask this, but I will try. I created my EE profile yesterday (reading here that there might be a draw today) and post-submission, when I login, on the landing page under "Application/profile details" section, I see myself as primary and my wife listed as...

Thanks again for your help and clarification.

i agree, having 8.5 IELTS score, I should have done a better job of describing it :P
