I don't know if any of you remember, but I've been fighting with Revenue Canada for almost a year over money they said they deposited in my bank account and wanted repaid. I've had threatening letters, talked to half a dozen different people, and almost given up hope that it would ever get resolved. Well, miracles can happen, boys and girls!

Yesterday I got a phone call from them telling me they had traced the missing money and were clearing my account. No apology, of course. No "you were right,we were wrong", of course. No "we deposited it in the wrong account, oops", of course.

Oh well. At least I'm not on their most wanted for tax evasion list any more. :no:

congrats!!!

Canadians Visiting the USA while undergoing the visa process, my free advice:

1) Always tell the TRUTH. never lie to the POE officer

2) Be confident in ur replies

3) keep ur response short and to the point, don't tell ur life story!!

4) look the POE officer in the eye when speaking to them. They are looking for people lieing and have been trained to find them!

5) Pack light! No job resumes with you

6) Bring ties to Canada (letter from employer when ur expected back at work, lease, etc etc)

7) Always be polite, being rude isn't going to get ya anywhere, and could make things worse!!

8) Have a plan in case u do get denied (be polite) It wont harm ur visa application if ur denied,that is if ur polite and didn't lie! Refer to #1

CCRA is sooo slow. I sent in my Cdn taxes before my USA ones, and I have already got my $$$ back from the IRS. About a month in ttl for IRS. I got a call early this week from CCRA about my taxes, I then asked how much longer, and he said 4-6 weeks!! That would be like 3 months ttls!! Guess the international side of the house is slow!!
