Thank you very much Chevy. I'm looking for public transport I couldn't find it ..

Once again thank you very much.

You can take greyhound till lethbridge....then hire a taxi will cost you less for sure, but there is no other public transportation available

the coutts border is the one near lethbridge right? Do you know if you need a US visa to do this? I have heard that if you flagpole without a US visa they mark your name that you were denied access to US which then has a negative impact for future when applying for a visa.

you need visa for sure and dont say at the border u just want to get some paper from canadian immigration otherwise they wont let u in. i told for the officer i just want to spend cpl days in us and thats it . i bought some stuff by the nearest shop and i came back but for me was just a stamp coz i have EU passport. i dont know other countries rules for USA

thanks i'm so confused I called carway border and they told me you don't need a visa to do the landing formalities for Canadian papers. is there anybody who has "landed" at the border without a US visa. And then also applied for a US visa after that and had it approved???

Yes, you don't need a US visa to complete landing formalities.
So the procedure is that you go to US and at customs you tell them that you are here to complete landing for your PR.
They will grant you administrative refusal and you come back to Canada and complete your landing.
Also this refusal will not hamper your future application for US visas.
Good luck.

depents on the officer tho dont forget it. if they say no than he just waste the time and money...... my friend went to the border for landing and the canadian officer was rude and pissed because they just turned back at the border .... they had to wait 6 hours

why would a canadian officer be pissed that someone is coming to flagpole?
and you can't stop anyone from being rude.
They have guidelines to follow and that's one of the ways catcanuck can follow to become pr.
