    News about the relative whose address was used, being arrested. Sounds funny!!

    Hello Sihs, I had tried all these options before I did my landing. I had enquired this with someone who has a law firm. Initially they said that they would do it for a fee of USD 250, which I was prepared to pay. Later they said that since theirs is an official address and not a personal one...

    Delivery of PR cards!!!!!

    Thanks a lot for this Steaky. Appreciate it. So what do you think Steaky? Should I tell them that I am outside Canada at the moment? I shall not say a word on my own accord but if the officer asks me over the phone whether I am in the country, should I be honest and say that I am not? I am not...

    News about the relative whose address was used, being arrested. Sounds funny!!

    Hi everyone, I contacted a friend of mine in Toronto to request him to collect our PR cards, and mentioned that I would provide the IO with his address when landing. His response was flabbergasting. He asked me not to use his address as I wasnt going to be in Canada for more than a week and...

    Siouxie, you mentioned that the COPR is stapled to your passport when the passport is returned to you by the embassy. This did not happen in my case.

    v v urgent...cant find the forms

    Alan You said that the PR card application is sent to the applicant along with his/her passport, which is what is incorrect. You dont need to apply separately for a PR card if your application was submitted after June 28th 2002. The PR card is sent to a Canadian address a few weeks after you...
