Great news ! We had applied for our daugthers PR in Jan. Today the process is completed and we have got the passport back from them with a single entry stamp. Now the Q is they say we have to go to the border and make an official entry into Canada.
Where do we do that ? We are in the GTA. Do we have to cross the border and get into US ?
Which is the least busy border ? Any list of documents, photos that we have to take with us for her ?

Any help is appreciated...

Also once we make an official entry when can we expect the PR card ?

You could always drive to Niagara and cross the border there.

If we had the money I would insist on a trip to NYC or Boston

no i cannot cross the border as i dont have a visa to get into US and i would need one !

was your baby born outside Canada? As for your visa for the US, if you are on a British passport you can apply for a visa waiver for the US.

His previous posts suggest his child was born in the US and so the child is a US citizen (but he seems not to be).

no im not a US citizen. child is a US citizen. But do i really need to cross the border to get the PR landing done or i can just go to the border on the canadian side and meet the officer there ?

Hi

Nope, you have to leave Canada, go to the US Immigration, state that you are returning to Canada to have the child "land". They will give you a rejection letter, which does not effect admissions in the future. Then you return to Canada and see Immigration who will process the landing.
