Hi Everyone!
I received my OWP August 02! Just wondering if anyone has traveled outside the country while awaiting for PR once they had their OWP? I am in Edmonton but from the USA and would like to go home and visit my family. I know they advise you not leave the country during the entire PR process being that you are at the mercy of whatever immigration office you encounter coming back into Canada and if they do not let you back in your application is voided. I have been in Canada on a different OWP for the past three years and have absolutely nothing that makes me inadmissible so I'm almost positive I wouldn't have an issue. Just interested to see if anyone else has done it and what their experience was like!
