We are planning to land next month and would like some clarifications -
1) Do we need photos to submit at the POE ?
2) Do we need Canadian auto insurance while crossing the border. We have Geico, and they offer coverage for travelling purpose only. Can we use that for landing, and buy new when in Canada?
3) Which is the best Auto insurance in Alberta ?
Question about buying a vehicle now here in the US and do landing couple of weeks. Can i do that? If you got some inputs/experience kindly share. Thanks.
We should contact RIV on Monday to clarify. I'm in the same situation. But we will have to pay the taxes like other Canadians importing car as the vehicle should be six months in use by the Settler before landing. Even then it will be cheaper to take from US then buy in Canada.

Thank you so much for the info. I called the doctor and he said he had a copy and he is going to call Ottawa and found out what is going on. and he also told me if necessary he will send a copy.

The practitioners usually keep a copy of the results. This is not the first case it has happened don't panic the doctor is the one that has to get in touch with Ottawa and get the whole issue sorted out. I have talked with my doctor quite a few times because my file was stuck in NY and I thought it was due to the medicals so I went talked to the doctor and he sent a message to Ottawa to make sure everything was in order and it was so they do have the power to contact cic and get thing right. Good luck
