Hello all,

When flying to Germany without a PR and only RTD, should you always take direct flight? (air canada or Lufthansa) or are flights with Stops in dublin or Paris okay? Since we can enter Germany with no visa..

Unfortunately it has to be one of the professionals listed on the check list.. if your friend is a PA (Professional Accountant) a PEng (Professional Engineer) Police, Teacher, etc.. he/she can sign.. if not, you'll have to complete form PPTC 326 at any Passport Program regional office...
If i fill the form,will it work?i mean is that enough to fill that form to get the travel document?

Not yet... still waiting..

the Interview was pretty straight forward.. they asked if I had a job, where in the U.S. i'm planning to go, for how long, if I've been in the U.S before, if I have any immediate family in the U.S. and they asked if my previous visa was cancelled or revoked to which I answered it was seized by Canadian authorities.. after that the VO didn't ask for any supporting documentation on my answers, and said "Your visa is approved".. I did not handle a single sheet of paper to the VO.. just my RTD..
Hello!! Have you received any response? How long did your Visa take to arrived?

not sure how is the process as I used my family doctor as guarantor.. I think you have to fill that form, take it to a Passport Office closer to you.. they will sign or whatever.. and then you enclose that form with your application..

If someone have taken that path, please help this folk here...

Hey Guys, FYI I was in Germany and Croatia this summer, entered both with no questions asked, one question reason for visit = tourism and they stamp.

I took a direct flight to and from Toronto/Berlin with AirCanada, and from Germany to Croatia, I flew Berlin to Dubrovenik and back with airline EasyJet.
Hello ,

I have a question :

Croatian customs officers in Dubrovenik have they put you a new stamp, or they have been satisfied with the German stamp that was enough? ... Thank you

No they have to do another stamp, cause you are entering a foreign country, Croatia is not part of Schengen, so he stamps it.
