And the side effect is that in process you have also greatly improved your english skills which no doubt will help you land a well-paid job in Canada. All the best and good luck buddy! :)

There is no limit nor taxes. Just declare if you carrying $10,000 or more. There are dogs in airports trained to sniff out cash. Hefty fines if caught or even worse - confiscation.

"Final decision: Your application was approved." Happy days! Whoho!!! Got a bottle of champagne ready since the PPR letter, hopefully will open it next week when the card arrives.

I have something similar with my PR application, it says "The additional documents you provided are being reviewed." I certainly have never received any requests to provide anything, and I am sure couple of days before it was "not required". Landed same week as you.

In fact, I hadn't claimed it myself. I saw it in GCMS notes that I gained points for that. As a part of the application, I uploaded my work permit to prove my legal status in Canada and the current job to employment history. Anyway, thanks guys for clarifying this. I think you are right.

Or resources, yes. But anyway, because of their rift with CIC other people suffer. Also, I am pretty sure they deliberately let their chat being overheard. Wanna help? File a complaint. Or others may wait 12 hours next time.

Make an official complaint then. They were doing this intentionally for a couple of weeks now, just to a lesser extent until now. I guess they are after more money for having to do CIC's work.

This. I went to US side to see the falls from the other side, came back an hour later and did the landing, no issues. Had to pay 6 dollars to U.S. border service though as some sort of travel document handling fee. They clipped a white label into my passport and told to give it back to Canadians...

Landed yesterday in afternoon at Rainbow Bridge. There were over 30 people if not 40 ahead of me and took me 4.5hours of waiting. Once they called my name, the whole process took less than 5 minutes. A lady officer was super nice and didn't ask any proof except verbal confirmation of residential...

Also, consider getting married in Canada, then sponsor your wife while you both are here. She should be able to get an open work permit while waiting for application approval. I think if you add your wife now before getting the PR, your application will start over from the beginning.

If the envelope from the university is properly sealed as per WES rules, you can send it yourself. It doesn't matter if it is mailed as a separate letter or within another as long the seals are not mended. I would also add a letter of explanation saying that your university does not send such...

I weighed all pros and cons and decided not to do landing this weekend. Will take a day off next mid-week and do all properly. Instead, will spend this weekend celebrating :))) Thanks guys for sharing all this helpful info, and good luck for ones who are still waiting!!!

Yes but there are multiple reports saying that the border crossing in Niagara Falls is no longer an option on weekends to validate COPR. Just Tue-Wen-Thursdays from now on allowed. I do have US visa, but reluctant to do 300kms round trip for nothing.

Anyone heading to Niagara Falls to land this weekend? Just received the COPR letter, not sure what to do.

Sorry, my post was a little bit misleading. Just recalculate your CRS score with 3 years of experience and if the new score does not fall below the minimum ITA score for the round you're applying, you will be fine.

You can claim points for a max of 3 years of foreign work experience. If your "experience in hours + part time exp. in hours" >= 3 years of full-time hours, then you will be fine. Just make sure you aren't short of days - only full years count and not a day less. If you don't then decline the...

Yes, but you cannot just waltz in from the street, you actually need to fly out and back in to access the immigration area. Or can you?
