Default Traveling to Canada from different country.

Hello ,

I got my visa from the buffallo office in the USA. I am planning to go to india for a vacation directly from the USA. Will it create a issiue for me to fly from India to Canada instead from USA to Canada ?

I am asking this cause I got my visa from Buffallo.

No problem but don't get married before you land, if you are single.

It is not "how the western world..." - it is about what is happening with
most Indian fellows after they get visas as per tons of questions being
posted here almost every week. If you browse through past few years of posts
you'll find hundreds of questions from Indian guys who just got their visas
and are asking how they can bring their new wives with them to Canada. Jim
was simply making sure that original poster is aware of the problem and will
not become one of those asking the same question.

Well, everytime someone in the local "desi" community announces his
intentions of flying to India, the immediate response is one of, "Oh, so who
is the girl?" and I found this very strange. I went on to realize that folks
in the western world had gotten used to this concept of indian-origin people
leaving for a quick trip, and suddenly showing up with someone in tow ...

Oh well

Ravi is right !
We can't blame the "westerners" for having this impression because so often
it is true !
Oh well, I hope this thread was only in a lighter vein and nobody was
offended or anything.
