Has anyone landed in the province you weren't nominated? I was nominated by Nova Scotia and closest boarder would be Calais, ME, and I will have to go there through New Brunswick... thoughts?

Ok I have decided that I am going to drive to Maine and cross the boarder and make U turn... can anyone tell me how I can figure out with boarder does immigration ?? Do they all ? Closest one from me is Calis...

I was thinking the same thing... I would probably go in friday or somethng if I still haven't heard from CIC office to set the day... and tell them that I haven't heard from anyone after requesting to land locally.. so wondered if I could set an appointment if I cant land then?

I asked the lady from call centre if I can do walk in service, but she said no for all the locations.. but I do know for the fact some people have landed without any appointment.. case by case I guess. They won't encourage you to do that though. You can land at international airports but some...

When I called CIC call centre today I was told there is a 6 weeks wait in Nova Scotia. Did you make your appointment yet ?

Congrats! That means your officer has stamped on your passport :) Pick up days are wednesday and friday, so you should be able to track your passport by end of the day on wednesday. How are you going to land ?

If you are enrolled in a program that is for two years, they will only give you a study visa for two years. After all, it is a visa to study so they won't give you a study permit longer than the time you will be in school. Before you graduate, you can apply for post graduate work permit...

I sent my RPRF after my PPR email. It shouldn't delay as the website says we don't have to pay until we are approved. I checked it few days ago with bank branch and my draft wasn't cashed yet.. and I saw 'decision made' on E-cas, so there are possibilities that my bank draft isnt cashed yet. I...

I started to worry about me not being able to land as a walk in... I am going to try to call CIC call centre first thing in the morning on Monday. I really hope they don't make us wait. We have waited long enough!

I now can track my passport !! 2012/01/06 09:57 FORT ERIE Item accepted at the Post Office

Thanks! I was just curious as it says on my E-cas saying 'the decision is made, we will be contacting you concerning the decision' I am excited! what are your plans for landing? I think I am going to try to go to local CIC office as a walk in. (I live in a small town where CIC office doesnt...

I just checked my E-cas and it says decision made. Do we get an email saying they sent back our passports? Once we get PPR, it automatically means we were approved?

You never know... but since my address disappeared on weekend mine was definietly technical update. I was one of the lucky cases that was transfered to Ottawa and got processed quicker :)

My address disappeared few weeks ago and week or so later I got PPR, and I have sent my passport few days ago, when I checked ecas this morning, even Saturday my address disappeared again. I think it is more like technical glitch for me, since I already got PPR and no way they received my...

I got PPR on 14th, it was about a week or so after my address on ecas disappeaered. I sent my passport to Fort Erie on 15th,now my address on Ecas disappeared again :S

Just the way I am planning, I may have to go back to my home country few months after I land, but I don't want CIC to think I am planning to settle anywhere else in Canada but the province that has nominated me. I assume they can figure out that I didn't settle anywhere in Canada for a while if...

I am from Maritime, and I work full time so unfortunately driving up to buffalo isn't an option for me. I sent my passport today, hoping to get my visa and PR card before March :)
