Maybe, you will be able to help me. I arrived in Canada on May 30th with an opened working permit, valid until June 2005. I would like to visit my family in France for Christmas, but am not sure if I am allowed to leave Canada. I know that when you are a tourist you're not allowed to come back in North America for 3 months when you leave a country. I don't want to lose my visa with going back to France. So, where can I find that info? What do you think, allowed, risky? Thank you so much!

Their official website is: http://www.cic.gc.ca/ and their website is available in French as well as English. I used to live in the states and know in the US that we had to go to the US Immigration & Naturalization offices rather then the embassy, so I found Canada had similar office, and found their website that way. Good luck and hope you make it home for Christmas w/out losing your work permit in Canada. :) Reply    Reply with quote    Contact priggipisa   ta-shy Joined: Jun 02 Points: 4008 Posts: 166 Posted: 2004-08-23 03:45:00    Good health and high spirits! where in Canada r u right now? you can contact immigrantion and citizenship in any major city. here is the link for it in French. http://www.cic.gc.ca/francais/index.html For information on citizenship and immigration 1 888 242-2100 (in Canada only) call them and see what they say --- LIFE IS AN ATTITUDE!
