HI

Thank you again in advance. This forum is really helping a lot of people like me.
I am new immigrant, after landing, took care of all the paperwork. I returned back to USA
to continue my job. Its almost three months and I am still waiting for my PR card, (I gave my friends
address and he did not receive any). Now i am planning to visit Canada for weekend, Can just use my COPR to cross
border by road. since i am away from canada for 3 months, what questions does the immigration officer ask me?
Can i travel every weekend to canada by road using COPR?
Does Anyone has similar experience,please share.

Thank you again.

Yes you can.

since i am away from canada for 3 months, what questions does the immigration officer ask me?

Normal border crossing questions like - What are you bringing into Canada?


Can i travel every weekend to canada by road using COPR?

Do you mean - every single weekend?

thank you baloo, appreciate your help.

Yeah, since I work in USA, can I travel between
Canada and USA every
weekend by road with copr till I I get my pr card?

Also, I am little concerned about my 3 month absence,
does immi officer ask me where I was last 3 months?
How should I answer this question?
Can I say I was in USA for 3 months or should I say
only two weeks

thank you again

Nearly every time I cross the border, officers ask me the same question. The truth doesn't hurt.
