I tried to call the local RCMP to arrange for the CRC appointment as well but they told me I will need a specific document that explains why they need to take my fingerprints?? Has anyone else had this issue or can suggest any solution? I do not have any such document to provide the RCMP

I am searching for an answer to this very question now myself. did you happen to find the solution Karim2018?

My fiancé and I have committed to going the route of a CR-1 visa and are now trying to plan our wedding quickly so that we can get the ball rolling. The current plan is to fly into the USA and apply for a marriage license, Sign it and after a required three day waiting period we will have a small ceremony in her yard with a pastor and her kids and a few local friends to bear witness. I will then return to Canada to start my 14 day quarantine and we can start the CR-1 process. We do have a concern about me entering the country with the intent of marriage. I do have to be truthful about my intentions when I am at the airport going through customs. And when I tell them I am intending to enter the country to marry my fiance and return to Canada are they going to believe me? Or is it likely they will refuse my entry? Does anyone happen to have any knowledge or experience on this subject? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Thank you all so much for the information. It was all exactly what I was hoping to hear and will help us out a lot 😊😊

I am a Canadian citizen and my fiance and I are considering going the route of cr-1 visa. I am wondering if anyone can tell me whether I am still permitted to visit her while the visa is pending? A Google search advised me 

"It's possible to visit your spouse in the United States while your marriage-based green card application is pending. ... First, you would need to convince an immigration officer that you plan to stay only for a short time and would leave the United States before your tourist visa expire"

Is this the case for a Canadian citizen as well? Is it easy to convince an immigration officer of my intent to return? If anyone has some insight on this or first hand experience I would be so appreciative. Thank you so much
