Question:

I'm on the executive of a non-profit board. Once a year I travel to a conference to the US on behalf of this organization and thus have to deal with Customs. I have NEXUS/GE.

When I went to the conference in Florida at the beginning of May, I checked off that I was traveling for business even though I am not compensated for the work I am doing. (I am paid a per diem plus air and hotel, but on the whole I spend a few bucks to go.)

It occurred to me that what I do may not be considered business. I'm not selling products or services. I'm going on behalf of our members and I report back to them.

Business, or personal?
