Personally, I wouldn't even consider crossing the border with an Inland application pending...just to go to your partner's favourite restaurant, and for leisure?!?!?! Can you imagine how devastated you both would be if the CBSA was in a bad mood when you were simply trying to come `home'?MisterBob said:Hello!
We were also advised not to travel during the In-Land application process as it does say "in-land" and supposed to be stayed within canada and no gaurantees for re-entry. The border officers say that it should be no problem as long as the person being sponsored has the documents of the sponsorship process and most importantly the document for legal status entering and exiting Canada. CIC has said that it should be fine that the person being sponsored can enter and exit but cannot gaurantee it. The border officers suggest that the person being sponsored do not exit Canada without a good situation such an important family member being ill oversea, unlike just leaving for leisure going on vacation as the person above has mentioned.
Anyone that reads this, can you please comment and share your experience about applying inland and traveling in and out of canada to the United States such as Seattle or a city across the border without problems? My common-law and I want to go to Seattle to her favourite restaurant and for leisure but is worried about affecting our application.
Thank you for reading!

Me and my wife have been together for 3+ years been married for 1+ years we sent over 200 pictures when we sent our app initially and sent another 100+ pictures 5 months after with our joint account and credit statements. Just send many proof as you. We sent letters from friends, family and also the church we attend our pastor wrote us a letter too. Just send as many proof as you that will be my suggestion.Mrs_Canuck said:AH! CONGRATS aakpawan!
I'm seriously considering sending more pictures/proof to CIC... though they might hate my husband and I already because we gave them something like 100+ pages of text message records along with a bunch of pictures with our app originally. Is is even worth it for us to send more pictures/proof? If yes, how would we go about doing this? It's always a difficult call because hubby and I were only together for 9 months before we decided we wanted to be together for the long haul and got married. :/ I'm always worried that they'll only see the number...

I have been thinking of sending more pictures(sent about 20) also. But, the consultant says no need to send any yet. I don't know if I should listen to him.Mrs_Canuck said:AH! CONGRATS aakpawan!

I dont think any harm will be caused if you send more information.guri3577 said:I have been thinking of sending more pictures(sent about 20) also. But, the consultant says no need to send any yet. I don't know if I should listen to him.
@ Salsal31 and Line.a thanks for your guys input. I am now thinking to apply for gcms notes this week and see if they believe relationship is genuine. If they don't then I will send more and hope for no interview.Line.a said:Absolutely not, but why not just see if they request some more info before sending them off? Saves time and money if you ask me!
