I will land to Quebec by plane in August. Then I intend to leave within 2-3 weeks, probably without receiving PR cards for me and family. I Count on my relatives at designated address to receive PR cards by mail and DHL to me. However, I'm told there's a small risk that I may be called before card issuance ( bad photo etc.) in which case cannot re-enter Canada because I don't have PR card !!! If I fly to States and drive to Canada some suggest I can go in, but surely laws are the same for drivers and fliers ?? I assume they suggest I can avoid "boarding refused" by airplanes, but question is will the border officer let me in ? I assume I'll have to say "I just left Canada for a week or so to attend business etc" ?? Thank You

No its not the same. If you drive through you can show the forms that show you have landed and re enter with that. This was also told to me by the officer who completed my landing procedure. If you fly in you have to apply for temp travel document to re enter

Information on Landing
Hi,
I have applied for canadian PR in March 2005 and I sent my IA docs on May 2006.
I'm waiting for the canadian consulate to request for Passport.
From reading the forums,I found that I should do the landing before my medicals expires or within 1 year from the passport stamping.
1)My H1 visa expires in Nov 2006 and I have applied for H1 extension.
In case if I receive my passport request and need to land before Nov 2006,should I fix an appointment with US consulate in canada for H1 stamping(for my extended H1 visa)? Or can I enter back into US after landing in canada within 30 days?
2)In case say I land after NOv 2006,and have my H1 extension,Is it safe to get H1 stamping in Canada?
3)Where is it safe to get H1 stamping(India/Canada)? I'm planning to take a vacation to India in may 2007.
4) When landing in canada,I'm planning to return back to US say within a week.So if the immigartion officier asks me about when I'm planning to move to Canada what should I say?
My friend recently landed and when the visa officier asked him when he would move to Canada , my friend said after a year.So the officer told him to apply for PR when he moves to Cananda after a year and guess he gave my friend some paper with which he can enter Cananda after a year.
5)So is it possible to get PR,by just saying that I'm planning to move to canada next month and return back to US.If the officer asks for a reason for going back to US,which is the safe answer?
6)Which is safe?Can I have both Canandian PR and US H1 at the same time?If so why did the officier tell my friend to get the PR later?
7)When should I apply for SIN?
8)I'm planning to fly to canada,so should I take my I-94 before getting the passport stamped in the airport...just to be safe?
Thanks.
