Canada: Hours of Operation for Immigration Services Reduced at Pacific Region Border Crossings
The Canada Border Services Agency has reduced the hours of immigration services at the Pacific Region ports of entry (Abbotsford-Huntingdon, Aldergrove, Boundary Bay, Douglas and Pacific Highway).Previously, immigration services (such as for temporary residents of Canada who leave Canada and re-enter within 24 hours to receive immigration services at the port of entry - commonly called flag-poling) at these ports of entry were available 24/7.
Travelers seeking immigration services at these ports of entry, including applying for a work or study permit or extending their temporary resident status, among others, are encouraged to plan ahead and may also be eligible to submit their applications online instead.
Contact your immigration professional for case-specific advice.
