Since Nexus expires 5 years on one's birthday, I wonder if the renewal expires 5 years later or if it's up to 6 years since it seems to take about 12-13 months to renew. Example: Birthday is March 1. Nexus expires March 1, 2023 (but automatic extension pushes effective expiration to March 1, 2024 if a renewal is in progress). Apply for renewal now (September 1, 2022) and get approved September 1, 2023. New expiration would be March 1, 2029 (5 year plus time to next birthday)?
Another idea is if it is possible for US residents to pay CAD50? I thought that all credit cards are processed as Canadian but I found this to not be true, even if using a Canadian issued credit card.
No. If your Nexus expires March 1, 2023, your next expiration will be March 1, 2028, even if you apply Feb 28, 2023 and it takes 2 years to approve your renewal application. Just renew now and save yourself the possibility of losing your Nexus privileges because you forgot to renew in time.
And no, it is USD50 for processing, whether you are Canadian using a Canadian credit card or an American using a Canadian credit card. USD50.
