We went to states via road/driving went Seattle for weekend - was told I need to fill in visa waiver green form paid $10 they stapled the green card to my UK passport gave me the full visa waiver for 3 months in states


On my return at Canada border they never stamped my passport - how would they know they gave me another
reset of six months if they didn't stamp a entry date?

So driving to states and driving back into Canada resets the six months? Visa
Yes, it resets it. They scan all passports and it'll reset.

Intresting.

I dont think you get another six months when you cross the border back into Canada. They (Canada) never stamped my passport when i got back from a couple of days in the states.
When I applied for extension on my visitor status, they added that to the date stamped in my passport when I arrived original at the airport.

Coming back to youre original message. If they didnt gave you a hard time at the airport after overstaying for 2 days I dont think they would now.

Goodluck with youre application
When you drive, they don't stamp, they just scan in your passport.

You have nothing to worry about. CIC doesn't care about overstay if you are married. You overstayed because you are married.

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/department/media/releases/2005/0504-e.asp

Just file your application pronto!! You are allowed to stay in Canada for the duration of your application process and as soon as they receive your application, you are on a somewhat 'implied' status.

Good luck :D

No - that's not applicable to the applicant as he is filing outland and not inland. Implied status only works for inland applications.
