Day Three: I went to Judge's chambers and spoke to clerk. She said that they verify compliance by calling the jail. Since they never noted that in my case file, it is just "assumed" that anyone checked. Considering I've come this far and don't want to leave anything to chance, they referred me to Sheriff's Office where they gave me a letter showing dates of incarceration (after taking fingerprints!) This document has nothing to tie back to original case, except date of self-surrender.

At this point I can understand the $3500 cost I have seen associated with having an Immigration Lawyer handle these types of cases. I can provide Statutes and Sentencing Guidelines for my Case that match the Canadian equivalents almost exactly - the issue is that completion of sentence in my state involves Police, Court, Sheriff's Department, Motor Vehicles Department and four third-party organizations (Counselling/Community Service/Home Detention/Interlock). I have compiled documentation from all of these places indicating dates that their portion of the sentence was completed. I need to find one Supreme Authority to Certify that all of these disparate elements come together to satisfy the adjudicated result of the underlying Case.
