Hello All,
This summer I was approved for a WHV which can be activated untl mid July 2016. However, at this moment, I am planning a long vacation in Canada where I will not be looking for a job or working.
My plan is to arrive to Canada on December as tourist and spend a full season in a ski resort. As of now I do not have a return flight as I do not know when the season will be over or if I will fly back or drive/bus out of Canada to Seattle, and return a few days/week later. However this will be around end of May, beginning of July.
I might be in US or Spain a few days/weeks and return to Canada before mid July 2016 and active the WHV
However, I've been reading online and spoken with other people that had a similar idea and their visa got activated upon arrival when intended to arrive as tourist.
Does anyone have experience in this situation or knows if at the border it will no problem to access as tourist?
I already have the housing booked, the ski pass bought, etc... I will be, for the first 6 months, on vacation with no intention to work.
Regarding this, will I need a return flight? If so, does a bus ticket (Vancouver to Seattle) be good enough?
Thank you all!
