Canada	The Vent Part Quatre	Ge the gimp!!!!	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2010-07-23 13:42:00
Canada	The Vent Part Quatre	My inlaws have 2 beagles and in their old age have gotten really yappy. Their neighbors in Tampa rightfully complained, what they ended up doing was bought this collar from amazan that sprays citronella when they bark! Much better than being shocked! After awhile they didnt even need to put any citronella in the device, just having the collar one, was enough http://www.amazon.co...78963637&sr=8-5	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2010-07-12 14:43:00
Canada	The Vent Part Quatre	Depending on ur area, craigslist is a good place to post (for free) as well as http://www.ebayclassifieds.com/	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2010-07-07 19:20:00
Canada	The Vent Part Quatre	Check out what your State has. Some have rental protection agencies! I know VA does as I gave it to some renters in our condo unit! The owner wasn't goin gto give back their security deposit because-----the people above them had a water leak, which of course the water ended up in their unit! They had no personal insurance AND the owner didnt have any insurance. So he had to pay the $1000 condo assoc insurance deductible!! so being the jerk that he is, he told them he wasn't going to give them thier security deposit back! Of course he knew that they were illegally in the USA, so he took advantage of them! jerk!	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2010-07-07 12:07:00
Canada	The Vent Part Quatre	Well lets hope that he has been taken in by a new caring family!!	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2010-07-04 10:48:00
Canada	The Vent Part Quatre	Dryers are a huge fire starter as well!!	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2010-06-30 14:49:00
Canada	The Vent Part Quatre	one should phone around to other insurance co. when I moved here, I think ours actually went down. Sometimes with ATM cards, gas stations put like a $50 hold on your card, and you get that back after a few days! i know some gas stations put stickers on the pumps stating that they do not do that!!

Canada	The Vent Part Quatre	grrrr husbands!!! you know I do understand that he works hard and that when he is home he likes to have some time to himself but how much time does he need?? Enough time for you to make him his favorite Pie!! lol	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2010-06-12 19:42:00
Canada	The Vent Part Quatre	I just love the fact that when I called up Lowes to get a quote for custom made sliding mirror doors (naturally, none of our door frames are regular size bec this house is over 100 years old...), I get a 10 minute scolding about asking these questions over the phone... when I just wanted to get an idea of how much things cost and do not intend to buy doors over the phone. I called lowes last week for a quote for a water heater for my brother n law! Dude said to give him my phone # and he would call me back in 2 minutes as he just had to check the stock--Never call me back,lol	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2010-06-12 15:03:00
Canada	Haven't got my passport back from Montreal since interview	congrats	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2013-09-19 10:02:00
Canada	Haven't got my passport back from Montreal since interview	I'm pretty sure a a supervisor looks it over again after the interview is complete!   Chances are extremely high if your from a country that doesn't exactly get along with the USA, one is going to go into Additional processing. And most will say not to book travel, until the visa is in ur hands.....Best of luck	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2013-09-15 14:29:00
Canada	Haven't got my passport back from Montreal since interview	I think you answered your own question--CHINA, just a hunch though	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2013-09-13 13:10:00
Canada	Web-based job and carrying it over to the USA	Something I would not worry about since it is a CDN company.....its not as if your taking a job away from An American...USA doesnt own the internet....but thats just my opinion	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2013-09-20 08:44:00
Canada	POE flying from Montreal Pierre Trudeau (YUL)	Yep, she wil go through USA immigration in Montreal..all her visa processing will be down in MTL....Once she gets on the plane, thats it, nothing else to do in the USA, except pick up her luggage.      Majority of flights from Canada to the USA--one pre-clears in Canada, only a few that 1 doesn't--such as Saskatoon.  Best of luck	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2013-09-21 20:22:00
Canada	canadian debt collectors	In that case, I would just say, listen I have talked to my lawyer, and I know there is no way you can garnish my wages, and I have no plans to ever moving back to Canada, so if you want your money  back, your going to have to come up with some sort of repayment plan that is in the best interest for the both of us.  If you can't do this, let me talk to your supervisor!   best of luck	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2013-09-24 12:49:00
Canada	canadian debt collectors	Just pay the debt that YOU accumulated. You had no problem making it........	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2013-09-22 16:41:00
Canada	Interview today: approved! Review of Montreal Consulate	Many show up early, so they get a lower ticket #, as that usually (not always) means you get seen faster, thus completed at the consulate faster.	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2013-09-26 11:54:00
Canada	Interview today: approved! Review of Montreal Consulate	Congrats!!  You were almost that 0.1%,lol  As you know--bring copies of all that you submitted!!   One doesn't need a ton of evidence, but copies of stuff you submitted is probably a must!!  I'm sure things get mixed up quite often, hell my Spanish teacher has other peoples stuff mixed into my folder,lol	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2013-09-13 12:45:00
Canada	Montreal date of interview! Reschedule for sooner apt= how?	from my readings on here-----1 just has to keep trying and trying and trying and something earlier may come available	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2013-09-27 14:31:00
Canada	Driving across the border	I am starting to wonder if it isnt better to jsut have movers do it for me.  I called U-haul and it will be over $3000, up front.  Where as I can have a mover do it, for almost the same and what I would spend on hotel and food and gas, I can get a flight down.  It floored me how much a 1 way truck rental is.  What a rip off.   I got about 10 mpg for gas,  I think my gas cost was close to what the rental was from NS to DC,lol   I like to drive, so for me, thats what I wanted to do!!  back in 2011 I drove from DC to Saskatoon, Calgary, kamloops, back to Saskatoon, then back to DC,lol     The quote u get online at Uhaul.com should be the same as what you got on the phone--so double check it. I went to an actual Uhaul franchise at first--and his quote was exactly as it was online.  And don't forget about insurance.  Sometimes your personal car insurance may cover it-----but it may  not--especially it being  a moving truck.  Same goes with your credit card, as soem say they cover rental cars---but thats the basic rental cars--not trucks, etc etc!!  best of luck	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2013-09-30 18:41:00
Canada	Driving across the border	I was in a U-haul truck.....I made a MS office document--table format!  Had headings like--Item, serial # if applicable, approx value (prob not required)   Kept it simple..did no tlist every single item, but grouped things together.  Customs guy barely even looked at it...but best to have something just in case they do care.  For my own use--I labelled the boxes	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2013-09-17 11:55:00
Canada	Driving across the border	If you go with Uhaul--(That is what I used)  ensure you go thoroughly over the truck--Check all fluid levels--tire psi--as Uhaul as a record of not keeping up with their maintenance.  I had no problems with my truck, it was one of the bigger ones, and I achieved around 10 mpg with it, then again, I was not exactly easy on the gas peddle,lol	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2013-08-01 07:46:00
Canada	Driving across the border	One can always google their phone # and ask, some only do it during certain hours	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2013-07-29 11:02:00
Canada	Canadian Passport Renewal from US	Pretty sure  used my American CC.....No reason why they can't use it---one can use ur CC all around the world	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2013-09-25 08:38:00
Canada	Canadian Passport Renewal from US	No not really!!  Unless your going to visit some other country that makes it beneficial to have a CDN passport.	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2013-07-07 21:46:00
Canada	Canadian Passport Renewal from US	did mine a couple yrs back--just sent it regular snail mail (USPS) and had it back in 3 weeks	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2013-05-10 18:08:00
Canada	how to obtain the details of charges	goto the court house???	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2013-10-01 18:55:00
Canada	Working in Canada and living in the US	If people are not sure...they usually do not post.  When you apply for citizenship there is a part on the form where you have to put down ALL visits out of the USA---for 24 hours or longer(hope u have been keeping track).  And if they deem that you have been out of the USA, more than you have been in it, then one may run into problems. In this case I would "think" it may not be a huge deal as you will not have been doing it for that long, only a few months.  There are a fair # of green holders that still commute to Canada daily, but they usually return to the USA after work.  And as part of having a Greencard, you are expected to be spending the majority of your time in the USA, and again, you probably have been up to this point, so its only a short amount of time. Just my 2 cents, which really means nothing,lol	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2013-09-30 21:56:00
Canada	GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN	These politicians need to get their head out of their butts!!   Of course they still get paid..and most are wealthy to begin with---so it doesn't really affect them.	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2013-10-01 10:45:00
Canada	GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN	Embassy here in Nicaragua is working as normal, at least in the short while	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2013-10-01 10:25:00
Canada	Ontario to the USA - Cheapest moving suggestions	I should say a Cdn citizen can bring a rental vehicle into the USA, BUT one has to have some sort of status in the USA...Once u get your green card you can...but of course that doesnt help u out right now,lol.........	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2013-09-25 10:53:00
Canada	Ontario to the USA - Cheapest moving suggestions	So I just checked, now that I disovered how to get a flat rate from the U-Haul Website: picking up the U-Haul in Buffalo setting it as a Buffalo to Atlanta trip saves me $600. Holy moly!   And to be able to do that--the USA citizen has to pick up the truck--the Cdn partner can not	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2013-09-25 09:51:00
Canada	Ontario to the USA - Cheapest moving suggestions	I just did a quick estimate on the UHaul site London to Wilmington NC (it automatically gave 5 days of use so that may not be true...I chose a Thurs pick-up)- cheapest is a 10' truck was $1744.(mostly due to the number of days of use) . 14' was $1822   Pick-ups and cargo vans were not available for that type of travel   Yep--not all Uhaul vehicles are allowed to cross borders, or be dropped off at other locations	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2013-09-24 15:43:00
Canada	Ontario to the USA - Cheapest moving suggestions	What you see is the daily rate. So for a pickup truck, it's a daily rate of $19.95 which is in big bold letters, and the find print says "plus $0.49/kilometer" As long as you have double checked--as local moves vs long distance moves ie not returning the truck to the same location, is usually different	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2013-09-24 15:29:00
Canada	Ontario to the USA - Cheapest moving suggestions	Not sure why you keep mentioning paying per km with Uhual---I never did back in 2004---and when I goto the Uhaul webpage, its a flat rate, and u get so many miles with that rate.  The price one pays when moving to the USA is different than what you would be paying for a local move.  You can get a quote right online at their webpage	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2013-09-24 12:46:00
Canada	Ontario to the USA - Cheapest moving suggestions	You can go online at Uhail and get a quote------ rates I see are a lot different-----if you can rent it out of the USA--may be cheaper and then you have more options such as Penske.    Back in 2004 I used Uhaul, was around $800 from Greenwood NS to DC.  Only obtained around 10mpg--I had a 14 or 17 foot truck. Ensure you really check it over before you accept it.	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2013-09-23 10:04:00
Canada	Exception for getting visa next day in Montreal	Yes some have..so do ask, but like it says, no gaurantee	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2013-10-03 20:22:00
Canada	can i visit?	i agree. be very very careful.   they are going to give you a hard time. expect to provide proof of all of our ties to canada - bank statements, lease/mortgage, employer letter / recent pay stubs, letter from family if u are staying with them, etc. remember, this burden of proof is on you. also, if you are denied entry  - it can negatively affect your case and they WILL ask you about it in your interview.   i'm sorry- best of luck,   Some have been denied entry and it depends of course for what reason, and if it is just for lack of evidence, it is not going to affect ur interview. If one gets BANNED, a ttl different story. Huge difference between a BAN and a denied entry.	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2013-10-05 11:33:00
Canada	can i visit?	All comes down to the POE officer.  As mentioned above others have been denied entry--came back with increased evidence and got in.  Having Immigration paperwork with you is very good as it displays you are aware of the law and doing it the right way.

Canada	When did you quit your jobs ?	From the readings on here---I thought they stopped giving out the stamped EAD a few yrs back	Flames9_RN	Male	Canada	2013-10-07 10:43:00
