    Not being legally able to work makes the vacation much more guilt-free. I'm NAFTA eligible, however the NAFTA visa is solely a temporary visa and therefore the applicant cannot have immigrant intent (at least when coming to the States, and so I imagine it's the same going to Canada) - which...

    My job has been good enough to keep me on since my "last day" at the end of June. After next week I'm done for good and if I don't have COPR in hand yet I'm going to "visit" until the process is over.

    Ditto for me too. I think we're the only ones left who are long overdue (granted you much more so than I). Here's hoping we get something this week. Especially since my meds expire on the 28th...

    As long as he responds to your emails in a timely manner, that's all you can really ask for. I think we all now realize that the sponsorship timeline is just one big crapshoot.

    They know me, so I'm guessing if it's allowed they won't give me any problems. One of the "perks" of living in a border town.

    Also, does anyone know if can I land at a Quebec border if I didn't apply for Quebec (no CSQ)? There's a Quebec border crossing 3 miles from my house, but the closest Ontario border is about an hour and a half drive away.

    I'm in the same boat. It's been 98 days since I got my PPR and 58 days since they acknowledged receipt of my passport (had to send it again because they lost the one I sent in May). We finally ordered notes last week. I'm a little worried because my medical expires in a couple of weeks and I...

    Foreign Service - Strike?

    Without getting in to a useless back and forth, I'll just say I disagree. But we're each entitled to our own opinion.

    Foreign Service - Strike?

    Isn't allowing labor unions to exist the very antithesis of letting the free market reign?

    I'd like to know the same thing. Wife and I are having a disagreement. She says it's useless to order now and convinced the COPR is in the mail. I am not. Can someone give me a reason to give to her for ordering (other than they only cost $5 so why the hell not)?

    US outland applicants' thread :)

    I got my PPR on May 8 and sent the passport scan that day. After over a month of nothing, I emailed a followup asking if they needed anything else to finalize my application. I got a response from CPP-O stating that they never received my passport scan. I forwarded the original email I sent...

    It's been 90 days for me so far. I got a PPR with no request for docs. I later found out that they "never received" (aka lost) my passport scan. It's been 50 days since they received it the second time. Still nothing.
