Re: timescales for PNP/ Pr applications from outside Canada
The admin refusal shouldn't cause entry problems at a later date as many have done it. Nearest place to shop is Grand Forks an hour south of the border and there is very little else in between. Have you considered flagpoling at Boissevain south of Brandon? Only problem I see at that port is finding a CBSA officer who knows how to do a landing 
Yes you still need to pay the $6 entry.
Yes you still need to pay the $6 entry.So even on an admin refusal, you still need to pay $6 each?

No only if entering the US. They can do it however very few officers working at that port are Immigration trained so they send their clients to Emerson or North Portal.

Unable to sell UK house, need to get mortgage and 7.5 hour a week casual work just doesn't cut it.
OH starts a new job on Monday - local to where we are renting so means I can use the car to commute to Halifax if need be. Bit of a long commute and wouldn't want to do it forever but it opens up a wider area for me to jobsearch. Got an interview in Halifax on Monday - wish me luck!

That's the root of all our financial problems....sell it and we are £££s in (or even $$$$s in).
Hopefully if we both have full time jobs, we'll get a mortgage and can pay it off when the house finally sells. That's the plan anyway!
Renting isn't really working out and I don't want to keep moving the kids from one unsuitable place to another. We need a 4 bed house and they are in short supply to rent, so we've had to take what we can get and it's not ideal. Much more to choose from if we can buy.
Good luck to you too.

Mortgage without employment? Oh, you must have sold your UK house.

OH has been offered 3 permanent teaching positions, so that's why we are not wasting any time in getting to the border.
Funny thing was we were able to get the kids into school without PR?
Anyway off to prep my goods to follow etc etc. Should be PR by this time tmrw.
Have a great weekend
Drew & family
