Hi.. Did you enter Canada under Dual Intent? If so, how did that go?
Thanks
No, my husband didn't enter under dual intent. On this trip, I (the sponsor) moved back to Canada and imported all my personal belongings. My husband was with me as he helped me drive the U-Haul truck from Texas (USA) with my stuff.
When we arrived at the border they asked where we lived. I stated that I was moving back to Canada and my husband said he lives in the UK. He was only staying a week so they just processed him in as they have for all other visits. We actually didn't know about Dual Intent until reading these threads today, but we were prepared with copies of everything from our application so far in case the officers had any questions.
For my part, I am happy to say that moving back was a great experience! I spoke to an officer that checked over my paperwork for all the belongings I was bringing in with me. He stamped me in (including a stamp in my passport that says "RR" = Returning Resident) and welcomed me back to Canada.
Now with that said, the way it is looking now our application won't be finished processing any time soon so my husband likely will be visiting under dual intent by the end of this year. Sounds like that shouldn't be too much of an issue but can let everyone know how that goes IF he has to do that.
