The ban goes into effect tomorrow, with a few exceptions.
Definitely check with CIC to see if you can extend your COPR if required. Our top priority now should not be the landing, but rather the health and safety of ourselves and our loved ones. Would recommend zero travel - international or domestic.
Thanks @deepac. I am trying to call IRCC but they have high call volume. I will keep trying. Do you know if this cancellation is for scheduled appointments?
I called CBSA and they said the ban starts at noon tomorrow. I land around 10:15 in Toronto. Will airport IRCC processing continue?
If cancelling trip is a simple option I would do it @ak45 . It is complicates with my visa apartment lease etc
Thank you for your help @panditji. CBSA confirmed on phone that travel restriction starts at noon. Air Canada website has same time. Hope my landing goes well. I waited 2 years for tomorrow
Does anyone know if they will close borders for even landed people in US?
There is news that US and Canada can give joint statement in 24-48hours about this…
I was thinking to move my car permanently next week… so not sure what to do if that ban happens…
“permanent resident applicants who had been approved for permanent residence before the travel restrictions were announced on March 16, 2020, but who had not yet travelled to Canada”
Just take precautions. (Gloves, Masks, Sanitizers etc)
“ Exemptions to the air travel restrictions will apply to foreign nationals who have already committed to working, studying or making Canada their home, and travel by these individuals will be considered essential travel for land border restrictions.”
US always tries to lock even citizen out if they are not ‘american’.
Hi Guys
Does anybody know if anybody can still enter Canada from the border from US by car?
Can we still take our personal car or do we need to take a rental car if somebody wants to go for a month there?
or Can we still import our car in current situation if we want to move permanently there?
note: This is not for soft landing. The person already landed last year and has PR card already.
