I used UPS to send the passports to CIC (1 day delivery). But CIC clearly mentioned in 'PPR' email that 'if you don't provide Canada post shipping label or envelope' then they will send the passports back in regular mail. So I believe it is not wise to take the risk. I used the 'Xpresspost USA'...

I believe the dimensions are for the complete package aka envelope. But again I feel they don't care about it as long as it is with in reasonable limit and weight limit. So you should be fine. My prepaid label cost came around 34$(CAD) with 13 (L ) X 7(W) X 2 (H) with .60 KG. All the best!

You can send your passports to Canada from USA. I am from India, and I did it, and got them back without any issues. Not only me, but I know lots of people who did it without any problem. The only reason you want to transfer your case to local office is either for interview or if you moved out...

Thanks a lot for sharing your detailed experience. I am also in same situation and carrying 18K in cashier checks. I hope it won't create any problem while coming back. And also I am planning to use AVR. So did you move to Canada eventually? or decided to stay back in USA? Thanks!

Do we need to fill out PR application form before landing? I remember reading some where on this forum, that now-a-days we don't need to fill out the PR application form. Any one did that already? Thanks!

Congrats!!

Nope. AVR is valid for H, L class visa also but F and J visa has more restrictions. H and L visa can go to Canada, Mexico and near by islands of USA and come back with in 30 days BUT F and J visa can go to Only Canada and Mexico, not near by Islands and other restrictions. Thanks!

Thanks for the reply ... My concern is also when coming back to USA. Usually when you fly into the USA, then they will do finger print at air port, and I am not sure about driving back from Canada. Let's see if some one shares their experience. So far I didn't find any posts online saying finger...

Hello friends, I am planning to land next week in Windsor and come back to US using AVR process. I had a small cut on my fingers yesterday, and I wonder about any fingerprints involved in this process. Do they take finger prints while landing in Canada? or Does USA do finger prints at POE...

Ok Guys, I spoke to Nexus Customer Care, and here are the highlights: 1) You need PR Card to apply it. VISA Print in passport is not sufficient, they need PR Card Number 2) You have to be inside either Canada or US for last 3 years (your out of country travels must be less than 30 days) 3)...

Guys, Question on Insurance coverage: I am planning to land and return to US after couple of days and planning to move to border city after 2 months. So Does it make sense to apply for medical insurance coverage. Because in Ontario, there is a 3 month waiting period. But from CANADA health...
