Thanks PMM of all the help

I'm landing at Queenstown-Lewinston bridge from Buffalo, NY

1)If I land and go back to USA in 2 days, will it cause any problem?

2)WHat should I say if the immigration officer asks me when will I return to Canada permenantly?

Should I say that I'm going back to USA in 2 days and will return to Canada after 1 year
(or)
Should I say that I'm moving now itself

3)I'm carrying minimal luggage with me.Will it cause any problem?

The reason why I'm asking these questions is that I have heard/read
from these forums that now a days immigration officers are questioning a lot during landing (probably intention to settle in Canada) and in some occurances denying the landing.

They also are not allowing to give friend's address for Canadian PR card.

Please advice

No.

Tell the truth, if it going to be a year, tell them that.
(or)

No, as long as you have your goods to follow and goods accompanying list (B4 & B4a)

Shouldn't happen

They also are not allowing to give friend's address for Canadian PR card.

Just a rumour., you can use friends address, if the IO gives you a problem, request to speak to the supervisor and ask to see where in the Act and Regs or the manuals that you can't use a friends address. (As long as it is not a postal box or commercial address)
