Congrats suki!
Hi all I had a question about visiting my girlfriend. I am a US citizen living in the USA and she is in Quebec (she is sponsoring me as common-law partner) and I wanted to go visit her for 12 days and come back because I work and live in the US at the moment. I wanted to know if I need to bring anything when I cross into Canada besides my US passport? I don't want the immigration officer thinking I am moving there already. Our application was sent Aug 24 and she has not be approved as of yet.I'll cross driving my car.
(I've read topics on this in this website but it is still not clear to me as to what should I bring or expect)

Thanks all!
Make sure you bring as many ties to the U.S. as possible. Lease, utility bills, paystub, bank statement, etc...
The more you have, the better.

Good that the duration has not increased. Another good thing is that they have gone ahead with 7 days :)

Hello Everyone,

I sent my husband's application on August 19 and they received it on August 22.

I just checked the CIC website and they're now working on applications received on August 15, 2011!

That makes me happy! =)
