Hi

My friend has just got her permanent residency approved to Canada. She is planning to visit me here in the USA after she gets to Canada. Does she
need a visa to enter the US from Canada? How long can she stay in the US?

thanks

I suppose you are a citizen of India which is a commonwealth country as per the law a commonwealth citizen
does not require a visa to enter US but since you a have got the candian PR very recently the border officer
will not allow your friend to enter US so easily and will turn her back

everything depends at the discretion of the borderpatrol which in your case is very weak

I know many persons who were turned at the border cases similiar like yours

only solution is to wait in canada for some time establish some identity have a job show some ties with the country
and then try to enter US things will lot simple them

gud luck

 
 
so
 
Kalpa!, You can make it through

One of our firends landed in Toronto from India, and after a month or so he visited his brother at New jersy. Go ahead and try at the border, you will be alright.

I would really appreciate if anyone could provide any advice to me.

I am currently on H1B visa in U.S. I went to Canada in November 2001 to stamp my landing papers for Canadian PR. I stayed there for 4 days and returned back to U.S. I am planning to go to Canada again for 3 days in March 2002, just so that I don\'t violate the 183days rule. Would Immigration officials in Canada would cause any problem since I have been residing in U.S?

I guess my main goal is to have my Canadian PR as long as I can untill I can get my Green Card in U.S....Is that possible?

Any advice would be appreciated!.....Thanking in advance
