Hi,

Yes we got those back yesterday around 11.30 am. Don't worry you will get it soon.

Congrats Randi...Can you let us know the expiry date of you immigrant visa or COPR?

Priority mail is also an express post but have next day delivery..so my friend is confused

Priority and Xpresspost are two different services (please see http://www.canadapost.ca/cpo/mc/personal/productsservices/atoz/prepaidenvelopes.jsf).

I believe it's better to send what CIC asks for, which is Xpresspost.

Thanks Can_Vin. Our visa expiry date is 18-Jan-2016, which is amazing. However, we won't wait that long...

Congrats! Nope, either way you get an administrative refusal which does not affect your US immigration/visa etc in anyway in the future. I have also heard that sometimes they will just turn you around without even giving one.. Good luck and don't forget to share you landing experience!

Thanks kelbc, I strongly considering the option to have an interview with local Immigration office , does anyone knows the number to call ? the number they mentioned in visa letter have many options but I cant find the relevant one.

I Agree I strongly recommend if you have no time issues , book an appointment with local immigration office, I went for landing at coutts and I was asked by the officer why I didnt do landing procedure at local office, they were not at all happy with me showing up at border for flag polling. And for those who said that this was just one officer having bad day, I was asked the same question by two officers.

Hello Sana,
Any updates on your landing front. Did you try to get an appointment with Local Immigration office?

Thanks

Guys need help.. My friend is in weird situation .. He sent his passport using express post n now he checked his status online it says item is ready for pickup.. When he called Canada post they said CIC have designated person to pick up..

Was someone in same situation .. Can someone post their tracking number or message me to check so that we can talk to Canada post that the *censored word* they are saying is not correct

I sent my PP on (22-Jan-2015) via Canada post, they should receive it by 23th.

Got the passport back today and COPR.
