    I was carrying a Virigina license but I guess it applies for any state when you do an exchange. Yes, they took the original abstract and the physical driver's license at the ServiceOntario location.

    Issue with New Jersey Driver License Exchange in Ontario

    I changed my address (online) to my friend's address and the user id was sent there. After I had the user id, I requested the abstract (online) and the abstract was sent to the same (changed) address. But, yeah, I was disappointed to see that no mention of license issue date which was more...

    A very similar experience. Landed at Toronto City Airport aka Billy Bishop (YTZ); a very small airport and seemed like the cbsa officers aren't fully knowledgeable.

    Passports to CPC Ottawa - April 2018

    Hi, Kindly excuse my ignorance but I am guessing this step is after receiving an email requesting to send passport. In my case I received an email from IRCC.CPCO-FinalRequest-CTDO-DemandeFinale.IRCC@cic.gc.ca. Looking at other related threads, seems to be a legit email and not a scam. Can...
