PR/Green card is for re-entry to the US - it's not a travel document - your passport is your travel document.

For most countries you would need what ever visa you would (or not) that anyone from your country of citizenship would need. For Canada - I believe your PR/Green Card is all you'd need.

Hello everyone !

I am now living in the USA with a 10 years GC . I would like to know if I can travel to Canada without a visa . Thank you for your time and help . :dance:

Your green card is all you need!

We live 6 miles from Quebec (which IS in Canada, though the Quebecois do not like to admit it) and we go there all the time. Montreal is our "nearest city" and where we go for dinner, shopping, etc. My wife shows only her green card to enter and return. No problem.

VERMONT! I Reject Your Reality...and Substitute My Own!

You should always travel with BOTH your passport, AND your green card. Even if they only ask to see your green card, you should also always have your passport with you when you cross international borders.

divorced - April 2010 moved back to Ontario May 2010 and surrendered green card

PLEASE DO NOT PRIVATE MESSAGE ME OR EMAIL ME. I HAVE NO IDEA ABOUT CURRENT US IMMIGRATION PROCEDURES!!!!!
