thank you! i had no idea about preclearance. appreciate it.

Hello,

My husband will have a late flight into Columbus airport (Ohio) from Toronto this friday (around 9pm) and he is hoping to make that his official move date so will get his temp i1551 in his passport stamped (with the e-packet)...I cannot find online if the airport officers can process any time of day...or do you have to arrive during regular hours..like 9-4. thank you!

got it...he has the immigrant visa that hasn't been endorsed yet....entry will be by land jsut for the weekend, so im hoping they don't endorse it right away.

my husband is in the same boat, canadian citizen and was just granted temp 1551 (greencard) in his passport...i have a wedding to attend in the US in May and I would like for him to attend but am worried CBP will activate his greencard and then he will need to quit his job in canada and move...

is this the correct link for the privacy act? http://www.rcmp-grc.gc.ca/en/making-requests-the-privacy-act

Guys i have a question.Just got interview notice for my spouse next month in MTL. He listed his indian passport on all forms up until now, including DS 260. He just obtained a Canadian passport last month and that is the passport he would like to enter the US on. When we go to register for the the interview appt online, it says to enter passport details: The information entered below must match the applicant’s passport and DS-260 Number application. Any discrepancy will result in delays in the return of the applicant’s documents.

Should he enter the indian passport details here? and then just take both passports to the interview? Tried calling but they weren't too helpful. thanks.

received IL april 12..PD Dec 12/02/16

received IL for April 12

looks like there has been some movement for montreal! nov 18 filers have gotten ILs!!

nope, nothing here.

it looks like Jimmy the tulip above who got an interview had a CC complete in September..so that's interesting if they go by docs qualified date or PD date.

Hello @inrainbowsany news with your case? I am document qualified Oct 16, F2A, but I did not receive any interview date in January 2019, I am just wondering when your document qualified date is? Thank you.

I was DQ'ed on Oct 10. But my priority date is not yet current, Dec 1/16. I haven't seen much F2A interview movement in Montreal so not even sure which months they are working on now.

Any updates for anyone in F2A waiting for Montreal?

Does it matter that we never lived together while we were in a relationship. We are married now but still living separately in US and Canada while the process goes thru the phases. I read on the EI website that co-habitance may be necessary to be eligible?

Question if anyone can help..My spouse was indian citizen when I filed. Case is approved at NVC, waiting for an interview. He will be a Canadian citizen in a month and will renounce the Indian citizenship. How does he need to update his application/case? Thanks!

The way I did it was I printed off the checklist that the doc had on his website, took it to a doc at a walk-in clinic and asked them to do the titers.  I returned after the results were in (about a week) and got the booster I needed and the flu shot.  The doc completed and signed the form from the immigration doc’s website.  I took a copy of the titers and also the completed, signed form to the immigration doc.  The immigration doc I saw (in Toronto) had a specific form for the GP to complete, but I don’t know if all docs have these.

The form cost $25 to have completed, but the titers were covered under the provincial health care.

Hello, can you provide the name of the doc and/or website with the checklist? I'd like to provide to my spouse to do the same in advance. thanks!

Similar to a couple posts above, i had a question if it is possible to apply for EI if under the F2A category (immigrating spouse through Permanent Resident). Thanks for any info.

i had an rfe sent to me about two months ago. after i sent the response back, i had to wait 4-5 weeks before i received my noa2 in the email. the website was never updated and still says that they mailed me an rfe back in april. hope that helps.

Forgive me, but I'm curious about this.  If you were studying in Canada for 4 years....and only "visiting" the US on summers and holidays---how many days total have you been outside of the United States in the past 5 years?

 

Permanent Residency means most of your time is to be in the US...studying in Canada for 4 years sounds like most of your time was in Canada?  Either that or you're cutting it really close with the number of days outside the country. 

Hi going through..thanks for the replies. So, I've been in the states for the past 2 years continuously. Prior to that I was in school in Canada for the 4 years, during which I visited the states on breaks. Im definitely just meeting the physcial presence requirement, but I'm anxious to apply because I have a spouse in Canada whom I am living apart from for the time being.

i did have authorization to work in Canada being a canadian citizen..I am just hoping that they give some leeway since it was an internship. I did report the foreign income.  Very stressed About this though...I didn't really pay attention to this stipulation when I was a student 

For the foreign dorm address, would I just list a cumulative date for example, 2012 - 2015... or should I break it down by each semester I was there

thank you!

Hi all..appreciate any insight.

I am a US PR, canadian citizen. i studied undergrad in canada for 4 years, visiting back and forth on summers, holidays, etc. ive just met my physical presence requirement. i have two questions:

1)do i need to list my dorm address in canada where i stayed for 4 years? or can i use my parents address in michigan,since i was financially dependent on them.the michigan address is also my official address

2) after graduating i took up a paid internship in canada for 5 months. would this be grounds for denial? i am currently employed in michigan, and its been 2 years that i've been working in the states.

thank you for any assistance!!
