Re: Can anyone answer this tricky question?

There was a recent thread in which I was told that, being a US citizen, I could visit without landing. Another US-citizen poster said that he had visited twice (entering once by car, once by...

Re: How to visit without landing?

Thanks! Then unless the policy has changed I can drive or fly, use the passport, and have no problems. That puts my mind at ease. :)

Re: How to visit without landing?

Re: Points Skilled Worker

Is there a list of the history of the passmark anywhere? I know it was at 75 a couple of years ago and is at 67 now. Has it ever been higher than 75?

Re: Can anyone applied from US help on the notarization process?

If I understand you correctly, the banker neither verified your signature (acnowledgment) nor witnessed your swearing to something (jurat), nor even verified the correctness of the copies, but...

Re: TRV visa interview at Buffalo

It's contiguous to Canada, but not to the 48 other mainland states. Americans usually mean the lower 48 when they say "contiguous United States".

So the rule is that a permit holder can leave...

Re: TRV visa interview at Buffalo

Do you really mean to exclude Alaska and Hawaii, which are not part of the contiguous United States? Or do you just mean to exclude territories and possessions such as Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin...

Re: Can anyone applied from US help on the notarization process?

The text of the notarial certificate ("subscribed and sworn to before me ...") is correct, though (at least in California) it would be better if the state and county were directly above that text.

Re: Can anyone applied from US help on the notarization process?

With the caveat that I don't know what CIC will and will not accept, yes, I think you have it. The main point is that the notary (at least a California notary, which is what I am) CANNOT notarize...

Re: Can anyone applied from US help on the notarization process?

For me to tell you what to do would constitute the unauthorized practice of law. I can tell you that, since I live in a state where notaries can't certify copies, when someone asks me for "notarized...

Re: Can anyone applied from US help on the notarization process?

I am a notary in California, so I can tell you some things definitively. A notary is considered a (minor) officer of the state, who serves as an official witness. There are two common kinds of...

Re: landing question

The fact that you can do it later is addressed by another reply.

You say "a RESIDENTIAL Canadian address" (emphasis mine). I haven't seen a requirement anywhere that the address be residential. ...

Re: Landing by air in Ottawa?

Unless you went through the Quebec provincial process you have to land outside Quebec. Other than that there are no restrictions.

Re: One Two Three

I can't see why the DMP wouldn't tell you what will be in the medical report to CIC. It's a report on your own health, after all. Our DMP called us the day the lab and X-ray results came back and...

Re: travelling back through detroit with no greencard (new passport)

I don't know what your nationality is. If you have a passport from a visa-waiver country, you should have no trouble. If you require a visa, the fact that you're just going to the airport makes no...
