Thanks a lot Leon, Very helpful info. I understand that there is no mutual text regarding the relationship of the permanent residency of these two countries. What I want to find out, I guess is, if there is a text in the Canadian immigration law that prevents somebody that is a permanent...

As far as I am aware, there is no legal obstacle for a person to have both Canadian and American permanent resident status at the same time. Anybody know where I can find something in writing about that? Please help out! Thanks.

Hi everyone, Some immigration consultans are suggesting that I need a guarantor in order to submit properly my application for PR card. This is the first time I'm hearing about that. They state that if I do not have such a guarantor, I need to have a "statutory declaration in lieu of guarantor"...

Shibuya, Thanks a lot for the very helpful links, especially the one of Immigroup. They look very professional and competent. I'm in a process of contacting them.

Thank you rjessome, Very helpful info. You're a really wonderful asset to this forum. I posted a topic regarding Supplementary Identification Form (IMM 5455). Since nobody responded so far, I'd like to ask you how can I obtain this form. In the next week of so we're entering Canada by land. I...

Hi guys, I'm in the middle of filling out my application for PR card. Looks like I have to order the Supplementary Identification Form (IMM 5455) and wait about two weeks to receive it in the mail. Is there any other way to get the form faster (from a law office, immigration office, etc.)...

rjessome, Do you think there is a way to call the CIC call center from the US - I tried using Skype, but unsuccessfully. If we're not able to wait to receive our PR cards (after applying and eventually using the urgent processing), before travelling, do you think that we would have any issues...

rjessome, There are different opinions on how would the Canadian Boarder Agency look on people in our situation. My family and I landed in September 2009, but did apply for PR cards and returned to the USA. Now when we reenter Canada some people on this forum say that we would not be treated as...

Thank you all for the interesting discussion and the feedback. Firstly, I want to ask how many years you can stay outside Canada after landing in order to maintain my PR status? Some people on this forum say it is two years, others believe it is 3 years. Secondly, how many times I can...

No, I am not rjessome. Does it matter in my case? I already explained that I'm traveling by road and my question refers to the possibility of obtaining a PR card in a timely manner, by using the option of Urgent processing of PR card application, explained on the web site of CIC. I live in the...

Hi guys, Thanks for all resposes and feedbacks. I think this post started an interesting discussion. Please, also take a look at my new post and urgent questions, named: "Please he-e-e-elp seniors and everyone !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Any response and help would be "life saving". Thanks.

Dear fellow immigrants, I really need an "urgent" response to my dilemma. I landed back in September 2009 with my family of 4. We were not able to get our PR cards, as a part of the immigration process, due to the officer's note on our COPR:"Not moving to Canada at this time. No address to...

Hi everyone, Does anybody have any experiency or is aware of the details of so called "urgent processing" of PR card application. It is not clear from the Canadian Iimmigration website how long would it take for processing, and what would be the reasonable amount of days/weeks you can aapply for...
