Hi All,

I did the landing formailities on May 6th, 2011...... we drove to CARWAY border (~ 3 hrs drive). It is between Cardston, Alberta and Peigan, Montana.

What a sunny day.....we had an excellent drive from Calgary to CARWAY reaching there around 2 pm. As guided by the Canadian Border Agency officer, We crossed the border, reached the US Visa Officer Window and informed him that I came to do the landing formailities from Calgary and need a document (basically kind of rejection document from US side...showing that I crossed the border theoretically and the US visa officer rejected me entering into US, as I already informed him about the LANDING formaility as an Immigrant).

With that we came back to Canada Border Agency office and told the VO that we crossed the border and are back for the further formailities. He gave a yellow chit and asked to park in no. 3 parking, specifically meant for residents and then go upstairs for further work. The VO upstairs helped us in other proceedings and also with the PR Card application. He informed that we will get out PR cards in around 7-8 weeks (30 business days) at our Calgary address.

We decided to do the STATUS CHANGE also on the same day. For the same, we decided to stop by at Lethbridge and get the SIN number changed from Number 9XX-XXX-XXX (Work Permit) to 6XX-XXX-XXX (Permanent Residents). But bad luck, the Service Canada office was closed by the time we reached there....they close by 4 pm and were just late by 10-15 minutes.
Anyways, we got the STATUS CHANGE yesterday and got our new SIN number....will be updating the Bank and other credit rating agencies soon.

Finally we are Permanent Residents of Canada.......Thank you very much to all of you. This forum rocks......so helpful to each other........my salute to all of you....feel free to drop me a message if I can be of any further help.... I might not be visiting the forum that frequently anymore. But if you drop me a message, I will surely see it and reply back. Good Luck everyone.
 
One more thing to share

Before landing my status changed from IN PROCESS to Decision Made - after I saw my passports were dispatched from there.



After landing my status changed from DECISION MADE to COMPLETE

and it says following, when I click on the STATUS


We started processing your application on November 23, 2010.

A decision has been made on your application. The office will contact you concerning this decision.

You entered Canada at the Carway office on May 6, 2011 and became a Permanent Resident. - this line got added yesterday
 
Bye Bye Bye Bye & Good Luck to all
