Re: IEC or PR? Travelling with common law partner

Thank you for this. What is "flagpolling"? From what you're saying it doesn't sound like something I need to be wary of but I have no idea what this means.

My CRS score was 484 when I did it...

Re: B2 visa application and previous travel questions

Yes this is absolutely my concern with planning for 90 days. People do hike the PCT in long sections so we could do it over two years but would be putting ourselves in difficulty with jobs because we...

Re: B2 visa application and previous travel questions

Thanks for this. What does "no go" mean exactly? Does this mean travel to any of these places means we won't be able to get any visa to the States, ESTA or B2?

Re: B2 visa application and previous travel questions

Re: Pet Insurance
