US Immigration from Canada

Hi guys

I am a dual citizen now. I plan to get a USA passport but delays are making it a 4 month lead time and I want to travel back and forth between Canada and USA in the mean time (air and land )

My nexus card says CAN on it. I went to global entry office state side to add naturalization cert to my profile. Do I have to carry it with me when crossing the border now or the nexus card is sufficient ? I can request a replacement card online I was told. Would it automatically print USA on jt under citizenship ?

I'm concerned in that case about crossing back into Canada. If the card says USA on it will they automatically recognize me as Canadian when I scan the card at the airport or at the land border?

thank you

To those residing in Canada with spouses in the US - How did you apply for your ITIN? How much did it cost?

I have contacted two lawyers offices who are acceptance agents in Toronto, and they are quoting a fee of approx $500. Just wanted to check if that is a reasonable fee?

Note: I wanted to post this on a Canada specific forum, but did not know how to. Moderators, please redirect if necessary.

Hi there,

I'm not sure if this is the correct thread to post in so I apologize in advance. My K-1 Visa got approved and I have received it in the mail so we are planning my move. I had a couple questions.

1. Other than my sealed envelope, passport and ID, do I need to make sure I have anything else on-hand and not packed? (Do I need to have the xray out as well?)

2. Does anyone know if train is an option? On the welcome to the USA paper they gave me, it says "You can enter the United States by car, bus, plane or boat. Regardless how you travel, allow one hour for processing". I ask because I used the train to go over there on my last visit. I believe Greyhound bus is closed til the border reopens and I had bad experiences with them so I'd like to avoid them if I can.

3. I don't own any furniture, but I can't fit everything into my suitcase/backpack. Am I allowed to mail my miscellaneous stuff to the address we'll be living together at? (I saw a thread on this but I can't seem to find it again, sorry!)

Thank you so much for your time.

Good day.

I tried submitting this through "Contact Us" but the system kept telling me I failed "Captcha." I guess that's the thing that tests whether or not you're a robot. lol. Apparently, it thinks I'm a robot, or else it's not working right. But that's not the reason for my post.

I just wanted to thank whoever was responsible for creating this site where immigrants/applicants can come and ask questions, get guidance, and learn what to expect on their immigration/naturalization journey from others who are going through the same thing. This website has been an INVALUABLE resource for me, and I'm sure others.

I was in the dark when my wife told me she wanted to move back to the USA around 9 years ago. I didn't know where to start, I'll admit. But the guides created on this site, and the wisdom of the moderators and others guided me through the immigration process (as a Canadian).

Now that I've submitted my N-400, I'm finding the site extremely useful, yet again. So from the bottom of my heart, thank you! You've made and continue to make a wonderful difference in all of our lives (immigrants to the USA). I recommend your forum to anyone I know might need help with immigration or naturalization.

Highest Regards,

Brian.

Hi there,

My husband and I are currently completing out I-130 + I-485 AOS application. (He is the US citizen, I am Canadian and currently in the US on a B2 visa) I'm looking for some guidance while filling out form I-485.

For the section regarding my last 5 years of employment history ... do you consider my last day of work to be the day that I chose to come to the states? Or my last day of work? (Although I was initially coming to the US a visitor, plans changed and I now am going to be applying for a greencard)

Just looking for more info/specifics that others in my shoes chose to put down on their application?

Thanks so much
