Hi everyone, apologies for this long post.
I think I’m looking at answers from a few pages on here so thought id try to just get the best answer or suggestion from your fine selves.
Firstly, I know this issue is caused by myself but any suggestions or answers is greatly appreciated.
I am from the UK and have just received my COPR. Now the issues I have are below:
1. I was looking at going to Canada in February with my wife (soft landing) - activate my COPR, open bank, SIN card, organise an apartment etc before returning to the UK 10 days later to round UK side of things up.
2. I was then looking at leaving the UK start of March (for good).
Am I right in thinking, I cannot do this by returning by air (as I would need to get a PRTD) - problem being time between my flights is like 10 days (so not long enough to apply for PRTD).
Therefore, I would have to fly to the USA and then enter Canada by land - as I would only need signed COPR/Passport/SIN etc etc????
If this is the case and the best way to get around the issues, how do you suggest I do this?
For clarity, I’m moving to Edmonton, Alberta and my wife (and dog) have booked flights to New Jersey, so the plan was always to drive from NJ to Edmonton (crazy and long, yes I know) but the only way to do it for the dog at the moment.
Do you suggest, renting a vehicle in NJ and driving to Buffalo/Niagara border (dropping off rental car), enter via foot/taxi into Canada and then rent a vehicle in Niagara and then drive to Edmonton??
Im guessing its impossible to rent a car in NJ (USA) and drop off in Edmonton (Canada).
Or
Do you suggest, renting a vehicle in NJ and driving to closer to like North Dakota and then doing the same, dropping car off and walking over border - or is this simply impossible?
Apologies, I know there’s a lot there but I’ve already messed a lot of things up by stupidity and lack of understanding.
Any help is greatly appreciated people., thank you for your time.
