    I want to know what is the procedure to take after receiving landing papers.

    I am assuming you already have your medicals done sometime back? For me they ahd asked for landing fees when they sent the medical letter, so I had sent my medical, FBI, landing fees together and then it took 2 months to get visa. I think if you alrady have your medicals you should reveive...

    I want to know what is the procedure to take after receiving landing papers.

    4.I declared $18000 (CND) to bring to Canada with me, should I carry that amount, because I am planning to go alone right now. You dont need to carry that much money with you. Bring some for immediate needs. Its enough to show bank statements as proof of funds.

    You can not go for medical before actually gettting the letter because CHC will send you part A of the medical form which you will have to take with you to the doctor.

    status problem..please help

    I dont think asking for your work status has anything to do with old or new rules or 9/11. Even with old rules at the time applying we submit company letter and all pages of passport including H1 stamping. And you obviously didnt submit that which would have made them suspicious. These people...

    I had applied around June end 2001. Got file no in Sept 2001. Medicals in May/June 2002 and final letter in Aug 2002. So it took around 13-14 months for the whole process for me. And my interview was waived. (BTW I delayed sending my medical by 1 month so maybe it would have taken only 12...

You have to send just the Fingerprint card and the small stamped form which FBI would have stapled to your card, to canadian consulate. Dont forget to send a cover letter giving your file...
