Thats what am talking about Malfeas13.
First of all congratulations on becoming a P.R. You came you saw you landed.
Booking an appointment saves you time and money and not to even talk about the fact you are not even sure of the harassment at the border (U.S or Canadian). The IRCC agent i spoke to told me taking an appointment is better than flag poling because of the unnecessary drama that may or more not occur at the border.

Malfeas13 said:Good Evening guys,
I just had my landing interview at IRCC office in Etobicoke. I received PPR on January 10th, send my documents to IRCC on January 23rd, 2017 and received back my COPR on February 01st, 2017. I immediately called IRCC to book an appointment to an inland office in order to avoid the rudeness of the boarder officers. IRCC replied me back 2 days after, on February 03rd and they gave me my appointment for today, February 20th, 2017. Ok the process was simple and fast. The immigration officer just asked me if I had a criminal record or if I have been refused entry into Canada or other country. Then, she asked me if I was working and I told her yes and showed her my T4; however, she never asked me for proof of funds. Then, at the same office, the immigration officer send me to a service Canada officer in order to change my SIN, of course after saying: " congratulations, welcome to Canada." What I can say is that IRCC officers are more polite that CBSA officers and my landing process was very pleasant and fast. I thank all of you guys for your support during this long journey and I wish the best to all of you. I'll continue in this forum in order to help with my experience all those who need advise. Thank you again and the best for all of you.
