You can use your plane ticket! And it's backdated so it'll start 3 months after the date of your plane ticket!!

Oh now the worry has kicked in :( We're in the 20% as in done in 2 month... I hope it's not a rejection!! He's British, we're married, no kids or criminal record, we owned a house, all our family attended our wedding, loads of photos..It'll be ok right?! Argh! Hurry up Canada Post!!!

Yeah our goods were shipped on Friday and arrived on Saturday. We arrived on Sun, they were inspected on Monday and we picked them up on Tuesday and moved into our new place! It all went so smoothly so yes I think good planning on my part :) I did obsess over it all so SOMETHING had to go...

He didn't put a date on it or write on it either, so I will just assume 6 months? But the visa should be here in Aug sometime, if nothing else needs done. I think our case is fairly straightforward!

If you are British, I can't imagine having any problem, since my husband did the exact same thing 4 weeks ago. Here is my post about it http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/our-dual-intent-entry-moving-before-pr-issued-t110872.0.html Just don't say you are moving over...

We picked up our goods 2 days after our flight landed, with no problems. The customs lady wondered why the customs person in the airport did nothing with our form, but there was no issue and we got our stuff and didn't have to pay tax since I've been out of Canada so long. It was all in my name...

Definite red flags! Where is your VO and what is your nationality?

Yup, if you fill out a P80 (I think) and post it off, you may get some tax back!

As someone who brought her 3 dogs and cat over to canada in June, I know how badly you want to keep them together and it sucks leaving an animal behind, I had to leave my rats behind :( But if your dog is not in great health and is elderly, I would really think hard about bringing him/her...

Our pilot knew the animals were on the plane without us telling them and I know this because the captain came on the speaker and said they were safely loaded. The dispatcher goes and tells the pilots. Most cargo holds are heated and pressurised nowadays anyways. But maybe just write a wee card...

Hey Everyone! Just thought I would come back and update on our dual intent entry into canada, as I know a lot of people have questions about it and are worried about being turned away. Bear in mind, I am Canadian and my husband is British, so obviously being visa exempt, it helps a lot. We...

No what you do is on the landing card you tick that you are brining an animal into canada. Then at immigration they do your landing stuff and passport check. You then get your bags and then you go to customs who will look at the cat's documents. I believe they do take card, we paid cash but I...

I just brought my cat and 3 dogs into canada, 3 weeks ago today! The animals had to come out of the crates while the crate was x-rayed in the airport. Then during the customs inspection in Toronto, the lady didn't even look at the animals. She looked at their passports (we got the EU pet...

I just checked mine and mine was done in Ottawa too, however it is signed "Case Processing Centre Mississauga" the same as yours. Probably to lessen confusion. Who knows how they do it, there is no sense it seems!

I'm not 100% sure, but if his child is dependant on him, then yes he probably does have to declare he has a kid.

Are you British? Do you have anything that would slow your application, ie criminal history, extensive travel, etc?

I was Feb 8th and we got approved from Ottawa..there have been a few from Ottawa in the Feb group!
