Waiver application processing times

I am pretty sure that was not Adelaide.

@Michelle I figured you probably had a bad experience. You deal with some tough borders. I would do the exact same thing if that happened to me. We have a small bit of snow today (first of the year) barely any accumulation on the grass. So I expect an emergency to be declared any minute now and the army to come to our rescue.

I also want to point out to everyone in the forum that most people in this industry are NOT like Michelle, and her attention to detail is what makes her great at her job. Having possibly TOO MANY forms is much better than too few, even when the waiver is done properly.

This is also why when I have calls from Saskatchewan I refer them to Michelle. She is not only local and knows the border, but I know that the great job she does will reflect well on me.

Well as much as I love to brag about all the waivers, I do are granted...I just received one that was denied...It is for a 2002 conviction, and although I cautioned client about the possibility of a doctor review and then a denial. The USA went straight for the denial. I won't provide any details about the conviction, as it is a uncommon one, and client might be on here. I am putting this out here, to explain that even experts can run into issues, and that the USA can be unpredictable at the best of times. A person can do on their own or hire a Professional, and have success or failure. I think it is important to show this, and as always, I will continue to assist this client until they eventually receive their waiver.

I've read through this forum just to find some information that would be pertinent to my case and there's obviously some childish very dull, imbecilic Bozo trying his best to troll and imitate various people on here.

Not sure what ends that achieves other than most likely some yahoo with a very low IQ. As my aunt used to say "the devil finds work" so word to Bozo - look for meaningful work and you'll feel much better about yourself.

I was actually recently referred to this forum by a colleague who got his situation straightened out with a long ago weed charge. No way I'm paying a lawyer for information I can get on here. I'm hoping to drive to Blaine to hand my waiver package in but may actually get in touch with one of the folks on here to possibly do a professional job with it since it's gonna be a first time thing for me. Since I'm in Kelowna it doesn't seem like there's someone out here with an office (other than a lawyer) who handles this stuff. Perhaps I could find someone in the Vancouver area. Not sure if this Michelle handles stuff west of Saskatchewan.

I don't know John Rogers but I'm pretty sure he's correct at #2023.

I'm sure Adelaide's post #2021 about "being given several years" and being transgendered is complete BS. Her posts have all been very consistent and thoughtful. From what I can tell she has an overstay of some sort.

John Rogers seems to have a solid head on his shoulders too and obviously has kept it professional. But it also seems there was another one of him on here as well.

The Bozo trying to troll is probably some Scheer loving mfer who can't read and quite evidently can't write as well. Simple sentences, simple mind.

I don't know Michelle either but I'd be surprised if she fell for that BS - her post at #2022 seems like BS to me as well. It seems there may be more than one Michelle on here.

Anyone know anybody in the BC area who handles this stuff? I suppose since we live in the internet age it really doesn't matter what part of the country we're in as I'm sure at some level the stuff is all uniform across the country but I could be wrong. Anyone wanna expound on this or are waivers pretty much the same across Canada?

@Magnus

I would suggest making a phone call to both Michelle and I if you are considering getting the waiver done. There are subtle differences in how we process waivers, and you should use whoever 'fits' what you want to do. The result will be the same, I am confident in that. We do deliver our waiver services slightly differently, and you might like one approach over the other, so ask lots of questions.

Your going to do your fingerprints locally, so that will be exactly the same. The best question other than "how much" is:

-what will the client be responsible for doing
-what will Michelle or I be responsible for doing

I do a few waivers in BC (I have 3 ongoing right now) but obviously do the bulk of my work in Ontario. BC is the province I know "second best". Being a bit closer, Michelle might do a few more than I do there.

Obviously, with WEXIT in the works, Michelle in the future will probably accept both Canadian and WEXIT dollars. I will ONLY be accepting Canadian money. (This was of course meant to be funny)

@Jazzsax1 I will always accept your "Bison Bucks" when Manitoba as well decides to leave Canada. Of course, it will take years for the rest of Canada to notice.

I have discovered that the rogue person who tries to post under various other's names has to use a slight variation of the name in order to use it. Example..using an 0 instead of an O..these differences do not show up on a computer..but do show up on cell phone..if u r unsure about the post..check your cell phone..u might have to look closely. .but the difference is there..

So I'm away for a few days and some muppet by the name of George S posts some nonsensical dross at #2014.

Is there more than one George S on here? Tells us please George S.

Same sentence structure, same inability as the other muppet aliases being used to understand that "English" is a proper noun and needs to be capitalized.

Here's his comment to John Rogers at #87 under the thread for "I-192 Requirements".

Quoting you now Georgie (HatsBooties) Last sentence of your post at #87 on the aforementioned thread:

“I don't think you have basic understanding of the english language.”

Hmmm.... "english" is mysteriously not capitalized.

NOW LET"S EXAMINE THIS:

Here's the FAKE Adelaide at post #1993 - but really anyone with any iota of intelligence knows that Georgie (Hatsbooties) is also the FAKE Adelaide and a number of other aliases. Here's the exact quote at #1993

Quoting you again Georgie (Hatsbooties)

“Once again, that is not the real Adelaide. We should congratulate he/she/them for trying so hard and giving us all the impression they are experts of the english language.
The fake Adelaide has made a crucial error that only the true Adelaide can detect. The E in english was capitalized in their comment. English, in this case, is an adjective and shouldn't be capitalized. Off course, a first grade elementary student will notice the mistake and call it out right away.”

Since Georgie(Hatsbooties) is being busted for the hebetudinous muppet that he is and perhaps, to try and cover the paper trail he's leaving, he will delete the comment at #1993 (since the REAL Adelaide can't do that) Let's see if comment #1993 now becomes mysteriously deleted.

John Rogers is too intelligent to fall for the Georgie(Hatsbooties) dross being spewed by this muppet.

#2030

Georgie(Hatsbooties)

Bless your heart...

@George S

Just curious is this a DIRECT QUOTE from you at #2030 ???

“I will just ignore you from now on.”

Seems you're not a man of your word. Of course.

Thought you were ignoring me. I'm disappointed.

@George S

Sure thing. Reread your post at #2014 and then get back to me about the "staying on subject" part.

Or are you still ignoring me like you were supposed to in #2030?

@Adelaide don't bother posting about the misrepresentations. Just "# so and so is not me" it pretty clear its not you.

@George S who is probably HatsBootsHats....please stop and let people get the information they need.
