    Well maybe I'm misunderstood since reading your response. I thought Flag-polling was just going to the border. I'm gonna have to do some more research!!

    Flag-Polling

    Soooooo.... I inquired with Canada Customs regarding importing my partners vehicle. We ended up getting on the topic of "flag-polling" and she was telling me that it's not enough to just go to the boarder as that is a "neutral zone" that we actually have to leave the neutral zone and be in US...

    MyCiC vs ECAS which one is better?

    Pretty sure you can link it. It is the same for me, I am the sponsor, he is the PA.

    I have been in background check for 5 weeks. Ugh. Only resided in 2 states. Was really hoping for a Christmas miracle, but nothing thus far. Good luck to you

    US outland applicants' thread :)

    Oh, well in that case - you're good. I am not married to my partener which is why I provided an abundance of documentation. Don't sweat it, sound like you have ample proof. Just an opinion though. Good luck, wishing you a speedy PR process.

    US outland applicants' thread :)

    Personally, I think that's sufficient. Keep in mind I'm no CBSA officer. I included much of the same; beneficiary proof on work benefits, pics of us on vacation togaether, boarding passes documenting my visits to him. He lived in Boston, I live in Canada. We did have bills and such together...

    US outland applicants' thread :)

    I do agree with you, it all depends on the CBSA officer, and the kind of day they are having. Shame to hear you had such trouble. I hope for an easy, breezy PR process for you so you can come and go as you please! Cheers

    Same here Aquakitty. We def did not take any questionable amounts of stuff. Having all documentation with you always helps, and they are experts when it comes to detecting deceitfulness. If you have nothing to hide - just tell it like it is - that is my advice. We are by no means 'well off' but...

    US outland applicants' thread :)

    I am sorry to hear that you had trouble. We've always had pleasant encounters at CBSA. We came back from Jamaica in September, were referred to secondary (as per the usual) and I had all my partners papers (copy of PR application as we have not been granted PR as of yet) and we def had all our...

    Yeah, had I agreed to the "no checking" plan suggested by you, I would have already blown it. May we ALL get decisions very soon.
