[rohitnar]

Hi

Are there any online applicants from the USA in the month of June/July that have recieved a SP? Please post details./

Also where should I look for my online application status. It currently says application submitted. Will the status change to "processing" or "approved". ? Please post any information you know about where to look for application status for online applicants from the USA. Thanks

No need to check there, just check your email address regularly, because CIC will send you a notification, saying to log into myCIC account and view the message!

you can't check your application status if you apply online as the application is processed directly. If anything is required you will get a mail.

shradzsaraf : Do you plan to go to Canada by Road? If so what items - household and other - will you be carrying? I am looking for information on if I can move by Road, like uHaul. This way I can save on setup costs like furniture, car etc.

I know that the strike is delaying processing. IMHO, our constant worrying about it is not going to change anything. I would rather b + about the whole thing and plan for the move. Anybody who has information or who has moved by road from US to Canada, please post your experiences on the same.

i was trying to do that and i suggest u look up moving companies they have lot of information about customs and requirements. I am not suggesting use moving companies but just get information from them

Mead: Good suggestion. Will do that. Although I see only one issue with this. The moving companies don't know the differences between a student and a PR status. I am looking for what one can bring to Canada as a Student. Most of the rules on goods to follow are for PR status. Any information or links on what Students and Open Work Pemit -spouses -holders are allowed to bring will help.

Thanks

Hi. I will be going to Canada by air. I would either get my stuff to canada by UPACK or United Van Lines movers. These are trusted movers. I have loads of stuff to take there so I would have to hire movers. Cannot get all the stuff by myself. Students are allowed to take all the normal stuff that anyone else can take. All household goods, clothes , shoes, eatables etc. Only dangerous stuff would be banned . Rest all should be fine
