Ivladman, you u dont need to show your bank statement when u land. That's is 100% sure but some people say just in case bring it. What i did, i phoned CIC and asked them about it and the agent double checked about CEC applicants and he said, it doesn't say u need to show a proof of funds. I said to the agent, i only have less than a $1000 in my account which is true and then he said to me just print it and take it with u and as well as your current pay stub. He said, it is not necessarily but to have a peace of mind just take it with u. When i went to canadian border, he didn't ask for it. Only pasport, COPR and work permit. dont worry Ivladman.lvladman said:

dianna83, the road going to carway, coutts or el bonita, it's like in summer and there's no snow at all just a little bit on both sides. In cardston alberta, before carway border it's totally snowed-free. i think we have the worst weather in edmonton.diana83 said:

, driving to carway, the weather was really nice and there wasn't any snow on the road at all. I was all by myself. At first i approached the US officer at the small booth and she asked my passport & my job title. Then she let me park my car and told me to get inside the double door building. Then i said to the person inside the building, "am i in the right place" and then the officer told me to sit. I waited for only 3 mins then while waiting i was looking at barack obama's picture hanging on the wall. Then the officer called my name, by the way, i was the only person in the building aside from the official who's working there. Then he gave me a white rejection paper and he told me to take it to the canadian border and he congratulated me in advanced. i said thank you to him. After that, i made u turn and approached again a small canadian booth ( canadian border), he asked my passport and COPR and the same instructions from the US officer to park my car and get inside the building. So, i went to the building and a different officer was waiting for me and holding my documents. He gave me a piece of paper and he let me write my address and phone number and told me to wait at the waiting area and wait till he called my name. After 2 mins, he went to the waiting and asked my original visa when i came to canada. I gave him my old passport cause it was in my old passport. Then i got worried for not asking my current work permit. My old TRV was expired already 2 years ago, i was thinking maybe he's thinking that i dont have a valid status in canada. Maybe he will reject me and deport me. Then i waited again for about 5 mins, then he called my name and what i did i grabbed my work permit, i did it on purpose to get his attention and he saw it and he said, give me that and all documents that governtment issued to you. So i gave him all my work permits even it's all expired and he let me read all the information in my COPR and he let me sign the paper and that's it. Oh and he said u will receive your PR card in 4-8 weeks then i said in which address and he said the one u wrote on a piece of paper.pongpong said:Waiting
Thank you pongpong. That is really helpful and congratulations again ! Enjoy every second of it.
I wonder how long that will last -- I heard south of Red Deer is expecting 25 cm today! Either way, if I can land in the airport, I'm good to go. My PR isn't time-sensitive since I have a work permit for the next 2.5 years. Now I guess I need to find all my old work permits/study permits...I moved in July, so hopefully they're not TOO hard to find.pongpong said:
Yeah Diana83, u have to take those with u just in case. Some officers asked only the current work permit but the officer who assisted me he asked for all documents that the government issued to me. I dont know why? but i was thinking that maybe he will compare my work permits with my TRV, if it matches the arrival date in canada until now, and maybe he's checking if my whole stay in canada was legal, cause i remember, he asked me when did i arrive in canada, the exact date.diana83 said:
