Hey, I have a question for you guys.

Do the customs agents/border security know that you have an application in to the CIC for PR when you come into Canada?

I'll be headed up in 8 days, but I still have yet to even receive an AOR from my recently-submitted app. I don't know if I'll get AOR before I land, but it's possible since I'm at 15 days already. (It'll be 23 days on the day I'll arrive in Toronto since the app was received.)

I don't get my checked luggage until after I'm cleared, so I'm curious how they'd know you were "moving" vs visiting? It's not as though I'm coming up to the counter with heaps of luggage behind me.

Thanks for your insight, and serious congrats you all you lucky people who are springing through this process! :D

I answered this in the other thread you posted with this exact question.
Short answer yes they know.
If you are submitted to a search then can deduce your trying to move by what is in your luggage.

Sorry. I didn't see it.

No need to be curt.

Thanks for the info.

Edit: That wasn't me you responded to, by the way. That was MrsHBKelly. We asked similar questions, but I had a few unique ones; no one responded to mine.

Hi! I just called CIC, I got Decision made last Friday but not SA email yet... Apparently I was approved as a sponsor, but the agent who was very nice, told me that the email was the definite answer. She told she would sent a notification some where so my letter is sent. Why are they taking so long to sent the SA emails? :/

It's usually taking 8 days between the date stated on (we have sent you a letter..." and you receive the e-mail.
Just wait a bit. At this time your application is already transfered and in transit to your VO abroad.
