Hello all ,

Just a couple of questions , if someone could help . So , for Alberta --

1) Which is the closest border and best option for landing in terms of smooth process without any hassle . Which one is better - Carway or Coutts , what are their working hours for landing process?

2) What all documents we need to carry with us at the border ?

3) Can we do landing on weekends or weekdays are the best options ?

4)If someone accompanies us , how does it work out ? ( I mean does that person sit in the car , does that person need any documents for own )

5) Do we need to carry anyother application forms ( like PR CARD application , SIN application etc )

6) Do they give us SIN number at the border ?

Answer to all these questions would be much appreciated .

Thanks in advance.

Hi Folks, finally got the much waited ready for visa email this morning :D :D

Btw, in the ready for visa email they did NOT put my apartment number but the house number is correct. Do you guys think I should ignore it? In the visa stamp on your passport or in any PR documents, does the address have to exactly the same like the one on Ecas?

Thank you! Single applicant.
I hope you all get DM and PPR from CIC soon.
Seems like some December applicants are getting their CoPR back in 8 business days.
