Hi All,

Thank you priya86. I had sent the cashier's check. How do I find out if the CIC had cashed my check? Should i check back with the bank?

Thanks for your advise.

Regards,
Siva

Shiva ,

Once they cash your MO ,They will print your file number starts with B******** on MO .So ask your bank for copy of that receipt .
Once they will start your process then your status will appear on ecas.It will take about 2 to 3 months.
You can check it by visiting https://services3.cic.gc.ca/ecas/authenticate.do?app=ecas.

Hope will help,

Thanks arajesh for sharing useful information.

Guys,

First things first - My family and I landed as PRs today. Yes it was successful.

Now, the story - nothing big.

1. One person in this forum helped me with an address in Alberta. I must thank him profusely for it. The address alongwith very useful thoughts from AlbertaOrburst, Manny, AlbertaATJ and Avalap helped me tons.
2. I went to the counter at 11 AM. There was nobody waiting in line. I went straight to the immigration line. A lady officer called me. I went to her and did not let her talk. I said I went there a day ago and that the officer was not convinced with a Manitoba address. Told her I have an Alberta address and am back to complete my landing formalities. She said -- "Thats great". Give me the COPRs. I did. She asked me "Oh provincial nominee". I said Yes. She asked me "When do you intend to move to Canada". I said "In a couple of months when I wrap up job n such." . She asked me to take a seat, called me in 10 minutes and asked me to sign the COPRs.

... Do you notice I used some of your advice here ? lol - even the words in a few places.

Lessons to be learnt:

1. Talk convincingly. It is NOT automatic that your PR is granted at the landing post. Note: I can talk superb. If I cudnt play this game well - that means this task needs preparation. Do you homework - Plan to talk convincingly about how soon you plan to move to Alberta.
2. Have an address in Alberta. The fact that an address in Alberta is not necessary is not completely correct. I did take this part light and it bit me. and Oh - Know what .. I had to stay 2 days nights in the US - all hotels in Niagara Falls and Buffalo were $199 minimum - and thats for very ordinary - no-iron-box-Knights Inn (not an Hampton Inn or Embassy Suites)

and about Canada - I wouldnt relate this to Canada being unwelcoming as a few people tend to think. I think the officer who declined to let me land was doing his work - Check abuse - Check to see if PNPs intend to serve the actual purpose of PNP immigration.

about Service Canada - went at lunch time -so had a good 1 hour wait.

and to the forum - I have seriously not found such a nice bunch before. Kudos guys.

and to myself - A big lesson in life - about ill planning.

Thank you so much .. Srini_72 , AlbertaOrbust, Xprime, Josephdadreamer, Avalap, Manny and AlbertaATJ.

Hi despoimmigrant..

Congrats on getting your PR cards..

Now Im want to take same path,i want to fax canadian address.But im not having any friends or relativies who can send me my PR card.So im guessing to send some mail forwarding service address .My concerns are do this will work.Right now im in USA,i did not provided canadian address during landing ,and now if I fax candian address ,cannot they find out that im not canada now from there landing reports...

Please share your thoughts on it and please provide me FAX number to send candian address..
