Landed Oct 2nd, still nothing! Gonna call CIC tomorrow. Called the 4 times in December, useless.

They definitely track where you go by your plane ticket. But I've never been checked visas etc by an US official. Sometimes the airline staff need to check my document before I board the plane, but that's airline staff only.

US doesn't examine outgoing passengers. They won't stamp you. They don't care where you are going.

I am not saying enter Canada using my work visa. I just want to use my work visa to board the planes. Of course I know I have to declare my correct status once I land in YVR. I've coming in & going out of YVR to US and other countries a dozen times a year, I don't see why I have to have a PR...

This is exactly the situation I am considering. I will be flying out to China on Jan 27. YVR-SFO-PEK. Then on Feb 24 to Portland on a business trip, YVR-PDX. So in both cases, it will be US airports to check my documents. I do think I can use my work visa because: 1. The work visa is not...

I don't really want to fly to SEA. Plus, my flights are already booked months ago.

I am in Vancouver.

No I mean using the visas to board the plane and enter Canada using my CoPR. When I land, the officer said: "as long as you can get to the boarder, they'll let you in". But getting on a plane without a PR card can be problematic. That's why you can enter by land. Am I understanding this correctly?

Called them again. This time the agent said my application is "not incomplete", they are just doing "additional verification" of my case and this could take weeks to months. All 3 previous agents said that the officer at my landing post made a mistake on the forms which caused the delay! None of...

Sent an email to CIC requesting for urgent processing. Got rejected. The person said I should contact CIC call centre. WTF! I have been calling them for 3 weeks and the call centre can do nothing! I clearly stated that in the email!!! Send another request today. So angry about this. Every...

Called CIC again just now. The lady said no update on my card yet. When I ask her how long I can expect to wait, she said she really doesn't know, could be one to two months. It's been three weeks since I called them and they initially told me the border f*cked up my PR card application. I have...

Hi guys, Some updates on my PR card: I landed on Oct 2nd and am still waiting. Called CIC twice last week and this week. Both agents said there's some issues with my application for PR card. They say it looks like the border officer didn't submit a complete application for me and one agent...

Landed Oct 2nd. Still haven't received the card. Called CIC today. The agent said they are still processing my case, "they are requesting addition information from the landing post", but the agent is not sure why so and there is some delay... The agent asked me specifically if I signed the CoPR...

Congratulations! Glad to see backlog cases are still being processed!!!

I support you! I'll send mine again if they don't reply tomorrow. I sent two emails last week.

Congratulations! So good to see we are still getting PPR!

Also, I don't think there's too much backlog left. There's a small amount of late 2011 still waiting. Most cases from Dec 2011, Jan 2012 and early Feb 2012 already received their PPR back in fall last year. Majority of March, April and May applicants haven't receive their PPR. So I would...

Hi Chicka, Be sure to include media as well! Newspapers, TV, immigration critics, etc. Thank you very much for your effort!

I started writing to CIC twice a week. Same email every time, just demanding a response. I started last week, so far two emails were sent. I demand they explain why backlog cases are receiving lower priorities. This week I'll start to write to the media.
