I am hoping to have my interview in August and make the POE that month; my husband lives in a border town one hour from my hometown where I work. My boss has asked me to stay on till December 2013 ....the commute is doable.....Can I do this once my CR1 is approved? Can I live in the USA and work in Canada?

You can do it for the rest of your life if you so wish!! You wil stil be deemed a non-resident of Canada and I believe NOT entitled to Health care. Fellow Cdn VJ'er Neiks has done this for a few years. And I know she has discussed it on here--so if ytou search out her posts, you should find a lot of info

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
