Those applicants who are eagerly waiting for their visas should read the quote below
and plan accordingly as they won't be able to travel without PR Card.

Immigration Manual states the following:

With implementation of the PR Card, issuance of the IMM 1000 will be discontinued.

Effective 28 June 2002 clients selected for immigration overseas will be issued a
counterfoil visa to facilitate their initial journey to Canada.

A new Confirmation of Permanent Residence document (CPR) (IMM 5292) will also be
issued. This document will be printed on non-secure stock and will contain the same
data elements as the IMM 1000, with the addition of the holder's height, eye colour
and photograph.

The CPR will be verified by an officer and signed by the client upon being granted
permanent residence. Once validated, this document will be microfilmed, for CIC's
archival records, and the photograph and signature will be digitally recorded for use
in issuing the PR Card.

Note: ** The client will retain one copy of this form for information purposes, but
the CPR will not be valid for travel purposes.**

Permanent residents in possession of an IMM 1000 may continue using this form as a
historical proof of having been granted permanent resident status within Canada,
but the PR Card will be required to board commercial carriers abroad after 31
December 2003.

P.S.

All new immigrants will have to provide their **contact address** in Canada during
landing process. After landing they will have 180 days to provide CIC with their
**residential address** in Canada where the Card should be mailed. So all those who
are dreaming about mail boxes etc. should start thinking again as all government
offices in Canada can instantly verify any address if it is a residential or
commercial one.

If no **residential address** is provided within 180 days then already issued PR Card
will be destroyed and normal application process will be required to obtain one.

P.S. #2

Just to clear some confusion one emailer already indicated - of course they will be
able to land ("facilitate their initial journey to Canada") with their counterfoil
immigration visas, but after landing they will need a PR Card to travel.

Just a Small Question here. If my wife lands in canada from USA , Is there any
problem for her to come back to USA if she does not have a PR card.

Thanks

Andrew Miller

Did your wife received IMM 1000 or the new Confirmation of Permanent Residence
document (CPR) (IMM 5292) with counterfoil visa?

If IMM 1000 then it will be stamped "Not valid for travel after 6 months" and she
will still be able to use it when entering Canada. But how Americans will treat it -
you must ask them.

So that means when I land from this point on, I will not be able to leave Canada
until I get my PR card in the mail?

I'm asking this because I have some relatives in the States whom I would like to
visit after I land in Canada.

Does anyone know how long it will take between landing and getting the PR card
in the mail?

Where can we download the Immigration Manual from ? I tried to look for it in the
cic website but couldn't find it.

Thanks

You are not precluded from traveling out of Canada. the problem will be in returning
to Canada without a PR card. It remains to be seen how long it wil take to issue PR
cards but I understand CIC has promised fast turn around time, whatever that means.

I don't know of any place you can download the entire Manual from at this time (if it
will ever be available for free download in it's full version as we pay dearly every
3 months for subscription to it). There are some bits and pieces (mostly drafts) of
Manual available on CIC website here:

Thanks Andrew

Americans Will not have any problem as long you have a valid visa and a valid I-94 to
enter USA . They are really not concerned what status you have in canada as long as
you have a valid visa for USA ..(My experience)

Thanks and Regards

Andrew Miller

But keep in mind that Americans rarely grant admission to newly landed Canadian PR
who cannot demonstrate that they are well established in Canada. Plus, if "Poppy"
counts on visa free entry to US for Commonwealth citizens who are Canadian PR (if he
is one) then it will not work without proof of PR status (PR Card) anyway.

SALI

Mr. Miller,

Although I do not argue your statements made time and again on the forums that
"Americans rarely grant admission to newly landed Canadian PR who cannot demonstrate that they are well established in Canada",
it still surprises me how people still manage to land in Canada while holding onto jobs on H-1B in US and also enter back to the US immediately after landing. Moreover it is so easy for many to get RRPs more than once while on H-1Bs in US.

I hope you have gone thru my earlier posting on a different thread where I mentioned of a similar case of one of my married friends.

If it is actually true that Americans do not care what status the individual is, in Canada and vice-versa, then what use is the linkage of immigrations databases between the two countries if violaters cannot be identified - whether in US or in Canada.

Andrew Miller

You will have 180 days from landing to provide CIC with your permanent residential
address, so it should be plenty of time to settle.

Yes, if IMM 1000 is stamped "Not valid for travel after 6 months" then it will be of
course useless for travel - why anyone would put such stamp on it otherwise?

Because they either hold a valid H1 visa or just get lucky. My posts relate to those
who don't have a valid US work/student or other visa and want to gain admission to US
shortly after landing as a PR in Canada, mostly citizens of Commonwealth countries
who hope to use Canadian PR status as a backdoor to US.

Just wondering...

Will it be a problem going back to Canada being a national of a Country included in the visa waiver program?

I mean, you can always "board" a commercial aircraft, but will Canadian customs/immigration officers enforce the use of the PR at the port of entry?
