Thanks Kimbear, well actually, and please let's not divert topic, but I kind of didn't let them know I had moved :innocent: So as far as they know, the check is going to my former canadian address and the check was supposedly being deposited in my canadian account...

I can't believe I'll have to wait two months now... :girlwerewolf2xn:

Not to scare you or anything.... this is just a story. A couple of years ago, my best friend didn't receive her cheque for ages. When she finally contacted them it turned out that someone had stolen all the cheques from the mailboxes on that postal route. Can't recall if it was the postman or just some random person following the postman. With that said, Canada Post SUCKS. And so does Canada Revenue. :hehe: I'd be willing to bet you'll receive it shortly. Did you not use direct deposit in previous filings? If that's the case then I'm not surprised it didn't happen this time.

You know, that happened close to where I was born too!!! Crazy stuff! No, this was the first time I'd asked for direct deposit... I guess we'll see what happens this week... I'll be there on Wednesday, so I might go to an office and see what they can do..

Mail delivery in Saskatoon (at least in my parents neighborhood) is contracted out. They found out the contractor was stealing the mail!!! They would take the cards that looked like bday cards, or nay type of mail that appeared to have $$$$, gift cards in it!!!!

Canadians Visiting the USA while undergoing the visa process, my free advice:

1) Always tell the TRUTH. never lie to the POE officer

2) Be confident in ur replies

3) keep ur response short and to the point, don't tell ur life story!!

4) look the POE officer in the eye when speaking to them. They are looking for people lieing and have been trained to find them!

5) Pack light! No job resumes with you

6) Bring ties to Canada (letter from employer when ur expected back at work, lease, etc etc)

7) Always be polite, being rude isn't going to get ya anywhere, and could make things worse!!

8) Have a plan in case u do get denied (be polite) It wont harm ur visa application if ur denied,that is if ur polite and didn't lie! Refer to #1

I'm amazed you are getting your refund from Canada so fast! Last year it took 9 months for them to process my return and then send out the refund. My refund was only about $50.00, so I actually completely forgot about it until it came in the mail 9 months later... I guess that's not a normal experience?

Back when I lived in Canada I requested direct deposit on my GST checks three times and I kept getting checks in the mail. I even called them once and they confirmed they received the request and the next payment would be direct deposited. It didn't happen, and eventually I just gave up!

Wow, three times, CRA is quite effective! :lol: Yeah, I've always had my refund within 2 months of filing them, so I'm not too surprised about that part... But it doesn't matter now anyways since I don't have a penny to show for it... :angry:
