Exit stamp is missing

[wcikkk]

Hi all,

I just noticed from my passports that I have no exit stamp from Canadian border.

Is it normal that they don't stamp when we go out of Canada?

I only made three trips during last four years, but none of my stamps are exit. I only got stamped when I entered Canada.

The thing is my home country does not provide entry stamp. They only stamp when I exit country, which is completely opposite to Canada.

That means passport stamp can prove entries to Canada but it does not prove when I exit Canada (No exit stamp in Canada, No entry stamp in Home Country)

How could this prove that I meed residential requirement?

You don't need a exit, enter stamp on your hc passport.
You can request CBSA record.
The question has been answered couple of times.
Check old topics.

canada does not stamp exits. They just monitor entries and if you come to canada and go to automatic kiosks at the airport and scan your pr card then they don't stamp your passport. During land entries they scan PR card and usually don't stamp passport. If the airport does not have automatic kiosk then you will get stamped at the entry.

CBSA records are not that precise neither.
For me, the CBSA report missed totally my trip to US by land.. Called them but there is not much can be done .
Bureaucracy is the theme of this government.

If CBSA is not accurate, how CIC confirms residential requirement exactly?

Do they have any other source?

I was in the same situation. I printed my etickets, but was never asked for them. There was no problem.

Not all the time they stamp the passport - the only swipe the passport/PR so I dont know why these people looking for stamp in passport and creating more problems for us.

Hello, if entry stamp is missing from your home country when you enter in your country, would it create any problem in immigration process ?

No, not necessarily, unless you are asked for additional information through a residence questionnaire to prove residency requirements, in which case it may be a challenge to prove without a stamp supporting it.
But for normal routine applications, it shouldn't be a big deal.
