Visa still valid but can i travel
I currently have a valid Bunac visa that expires Jan 2011 and sometime in Sept i applied for an work permit extension and it was refused because i need an LMO which i cant get because my job doesn't pay me enough and my employer cant get it for me. So what my employer has applied for a PNP for me and that's still in progress its on a long backlog of 14-20weeks which will be way after my visa expires.
So my question is, is it safe for me to go to Seattle in DEC am worried cause i might not be allowed back into the country because on my refusal on my record but at the same time am still on a valid work permit status., i already have a refused work permit. Does anyone have any suggestions? should i risk it or not am

Re: Visa still valid but can i travel
The only way to be certain of the correct information is to get it from the visa office. I would do a case specific e-mail and ask them. With the best will in the world other forum users will try to help...but if Visa office say it will be okay...I would print off a copy of that e-mail to take with you to be sure you won't have any problems. It is way too risky to rely on any unsubstantiated opinion...however well meant.
Hope this helps

Re: Visa still valid but can i travel
Thanks lins and Stef McLachlan for the advice i think that's probably the wisest thing to do at this moment. i don't want to take unnecessary risks.
