    Thread for outland Buffalo applicants!

    I'm kinda interested in the fact that so many people from diverse "app sent/received at CPC-M" timelines have been in process in the first week of October @ Buffalo, followed by spontaneous periods (especially during September) of virtually no one getting movement on the applicant portion.

    Thread for outland Buffalo applicants!

    Hmm, now I'm confused. On Thursday we're going to take my passport request stuff to Buffalo (driving over the border), presumably get the COPR, and presumably land the same day (just waiting on the rest of fam's list of my stuff so I can add it). I was told that at the landing interview they...

    Thread for outland Buffalo applicants!

    Ironically I just got movement on the file -- I still check it just for fun. "We started processing your application on October 4, 2011. Medical results have been received.". Wonder if it'll catch up any time soon. ;)

    Thread for outland Buffalo applicants!

    Pretty much. That's 3-5x the "celebration" for every 1.75L purchased at LCBO. ;D Family has some waiting for me, dunno if they'll let me add it to the list though. ??? Eddy070, some would say maybe a few weeks or less but really there's no way to know until you get PPR.

    Thread for outland Buffalo applicants!

    Congrats on the PPR's! Next week or the following week my wife and I are driving to Buffalo to hand over passport and hopefully land on the same day. Until then, getting together laundry list of stuff to import. I hope they don't require serial numbers on everything, especially from my fam in...

    Thread for outland Buffalo applicants!

    Thank you. :) I read the portion about making me inadmissible in one of the PPR e-mail links, but it didn't make sense because they were talking about family being sponsored and our newborn is already Canadian by default (Canadian birth certificate, born in Canada, born to a Canadian mother who...

    Thread for outland Buffalo applicants!

    Happy new week everyone! I hope plenty more PPR's and visa issuances come your way. :) As for me, I'm a bit confused. On the same day our baby was born I had my PPR e-mailed to me, decided to hold off on any action til we could bring her home from her NICU stay, and she was brought home for...

    Thread for outland Buffalo applicants!

    In respect to the PPR I wonder if we should wait to get it in post before sending the stuff off, or if the e-mail instructions were good enough.. ???

    Thread for outland Buffalo applicants!

    Thank you for the well wishes, sufficed to say I found myself going through a wide range of emotions last night, and most of the crying I was doing was of the happy/relieved type. We intend on notifying when we leave the hospital with baby. She was born very late Tuesday night, we're gonna be...

    ^ That's the wife, who wanted to post. :P Yay! Thanks everyone for the responses, btw ddobro2 put in the topic our timeline for you to put on the spreadsheet several pages back now wherever last week was. :D but here's the updated version then: App Sent: May 27th 2011 App Received: May 30th...

    Thread for outland Buffalo applicants!

    OMG is this for real?? I even used the F number they e-mailed me with, which includes my first/last name and said F number in the subject (plus some weird "cn/ez") which was my applicant number, but e-Cas shows "Application Received" still. This is sooo weird. I dunno if I should celebrate...

    Thread for outland Buffalo applicants!

    You can also add us ddobro2. My wife had a forum issue which I evidently have too in being unable to update timelines in the left part under forum username when you read posts, or even add to forum signature. Dunno what's up with that but she gave up. I personally don't care and will post...

    Thread for outland Buffalo applicants!

    Hehe yeah, the visitor record is stapled/folded to my passport on the page with a stamp, I have no intention of removing it, so I imagine when showing that to a border patrol agent they will look at it, and my wife will be with me at all times while PR process is going when going through any...

    carseats?! illegal

    This is unfortunately one of the downsides to moving to a different country. Thankfully, neither of us had any kids yet, wife is between 39 and 40 weeks along right now, we attended prenatal classes and the hospital tour, both instances they made sure to hammer it into our heads that they won't...

    Thread for outland Buffalo applicants!

    They can attempt to prove their ties but in most cases it's denial. If there's any wonder why so many circumvent the process and filed AOS it's because those who do things proper still get crap for it. Yep, my wife (Canadian citizen) was held up for 3 hours and was left crying afterwords...

    About visitor record... I just recently got mine after staying 5.5 months in Canada as a visitor with PR in process (file is currently in Buffalo following sponsorship approval a few months back), going to Fort Erie Peace Bridge entry (circled around before getting to the bridge to the U.S...
