**----January 2019 Outland Application----**

So ..what is flagpoling? When you get COPR can you go to any border or are there specific ones? Is queenston-lewiston the only one we can go to..not peace or rainbow? Sorry for all the questions!!!

Just crossing the border and the turning back to the Canadian side. No, any of the crossings should do (definitely Peace and Rainbow are capable of processing the COPR too).

What is your situation? Are you a PR sponsoring?

Im a canadian citizen sponsoring my husband, but hes from iraq so i dont think he can come visit me
Right

Has anyone gone down to the states yet for biometrics? I’m curious wether to mention it when I cross the border or just say I’m coming for a mini vacation (which has what’s been advised) hahah.

oh, thats really good! I applied at the same time as this application and I got the notification a month ago. So it took me 4 months to get it, and I hope there wont be any issue getting the document on Monday.

Congrats! I doubt you will have any trouble. So only 4 months, that's good to know. Well, let me know how it goes and good luck!

Me too. I always spend many months there. The only reason I travelled back to Canada was for the birth of our baby.
I spent much of my pregnancy in CR and plan to go back in 2 weeks until closer to Christmas! Haven't embarked on citizenship there yet - thanks for this info xo

You're very welcome. Congrats on the new baby and have a safe trip. I'll be right behind you, flying out on June 14th.
