We will finally be landing on May 24 ;D

Any advice on the process would be greatly appreciated. We are doing it by car and will have a full load.
We'll be landing the 22nd with a car, a U-Haul truck, two cats, and a VERY tired Canadian spouse and US applicant! The biggest tip I've found from these forums is to FULLY complete all the paperwork first, esp. your B4 lists of goods to be "imported." Are you importing your US car to Canada? If so, you'll need to "export" it from the US first, and will need to submit your paperwork to US customs pronto! I don't have time to give complete info--still MANY boxes to pack!--but you can search the threads for lots of info. CSBA has much helpful info, forms, and links to other agencies on its site.

And remember to breathe and smile! ;)
 
Congrats!

I'm starting to get anxious. Here's to hoping for some action for December apps. :-)
 
I know! Seeing moment for November has got me so nervous and anxious!
Congrats to everyone with good news!

Canadian spouse and US applicant here too. No car to import but we do have a dog. Anything special with regards to him. We always carry his up to date rabies certificate.

Hope your landing goes well. The exhaustion will be well worth it ;D

I'm pretty sure that all you need is the rabies certificate to come from US to Canada
 
Looks like this has been a busy day. Congrats to all. Received my COPR today also, just in time for my trip to PEI on Thursday! 8)
