COPR received today. Issue date April 22, 2014.

I will probably be going to the Peace Arch crossing to use my COPR.
I'm hoping it will not be too busy there tomorrow in the morning.
Sweet man! Congrats! :) What's your ECAS status??
Peace Arch is always a hit and miss. I would suggest going EARLY in the morning, before 600am or
between 1000-1100am. That's when I experience the least of a wait, both north and southbound.

Let us know how it went when you get back.

Finally Landed :) :)

So i got the COPR in the post yesterday and landed at the Niagara Falls Rainbow Bridge yesterday evening. The immigrant visa was iiused on 25th April.

I never travel to States from there, as they are so busy and their attitudes are too much to handle.. but i went as my friend insisted and yet i was proved right. So the lady takes my COPR and informs me to wait for 5 mins. she comes back and asks me to sign and we are done. No explanation, nothing. This lady at rainbow bridge was super rude; no questions, no congrats.. no soft skills at all. We didnt speak a single word to each other. I would not recommend the rainbow bridge to anyone for landing.
I have been for my friend's landing 4 times on Lewiston–Queenston Bridge and at Peace Bridge. They are so nice and they spend atleast 10 mins explaining the entire process and what to do and what you cannot do and a lot other general info. ..

Well at the end i am now a PR. Best Wishes for folks who are still waiting and are nearing.. Have a good one,

Nick

It's been quiet this week, there aren't that many PPRs...Even on Trackitt, CIC kinda clears the backlog with earlier applications. Hopefully we will see some action this afternoon or tomorrow :) Good luck everybody :)
