I have applied for PR on Sep 2012 and got my passport back yesterday. I wanted to do landing by going to US and coming back to Canada. I have US visa but don't have a car so I am planning to go to buffalo by bus and while coming back, take a cab from buffalo to niagara ontario. Has anyone done this before? Appreciate your response.

Don't have a license.

Do you know about any cab service in buffalo which can travel to Niagara ON?

I don;t think CAB service will take you across border. you can check with Bus Operators if they have similar cases before. Ideally if it takes time they should arrange you in next bus.

Thanks!

Any more input guys?

Is there any particular reason you are going to Buffalo?

Why not get a bus to Niagra Falls, Ontario and flagpole on foot at Rainbow Bridge?

I was planning to do some shopping in Buffalo and while coming back do the landing. Do I need to tell the US border that in addition to shopping I also wanted to do landing for my PR?

I liked your idea and I am also planning to go to US and do landing while coming back through taxi. Anyone has any idea?

6 years later, I'll be doing this tomorrow.i tried flagpoling lastweek but they flat out refused. Probably because they were busy with the 4th of July. So I don't want to take a chance this time and I plan to actually cross the border all the way to Buffalo and then done back. I have us visa so crossing isn't an issue.

Can anyone confirm is they have done this recently and have gotten positive news? I'm desperately trying to get it done tomorrow.

Thanks.
