I discovered there is no Nexus kiosk available for connecting PAX (CAN to USA) at YYZ. This seems like a gap in the process. Anyone know who to contact to point this out?

I sent my application in mid February, Visa was billed on Feb.28..
and I just received the letter to book an appointment last wednesday. I tried calling that number...and always get the voicemail...and they never called back..??? What should i do? just drop by the YYZ office and book an appointment in person? |

I asked why they didn't call back and they said they are getting hundreds of calls a day and my time probably wasn't available so they didn't call me back. Wasn't pleased with the service, but I guess they are in control. Bottom line if you're planning a trip to the airport, you may just want to stop by and save the aggravation of the voice mail box black hole. |

I was very pleased at how responsive and friendly everyone was at YYZ. I was already a Canpass member. I don't know if that makes a difference or not. |
Got my invite in the mail yesterday - only took 3 1/2 months.

Got my letter yesterday, too. That is after I sent in your application in mid-January. I am not an existing Nexus/Canpass member.
|
can you tell us what kind of questions were asked and what supporting materials did you take with you? Also, are you a TN visa holder? I would think this would make it a little easier?

I asked about the rental car issue 3-4 years ago. No problems either way (sample of at least 3 R/Ts), at least if the car is registered in Canada. And no, you do not have to have a car to use it across land.
Never used Nexus driving a U.S.-reg. rental car. You usually can just show the border guard your rental contract indicating you're returning the car ASAP and they'll let you by. May not want to use the Nexus lane though (I've had to drive a U.S. reg rental car from SEA once or twice but thankfully the normal lanes were pretty quiet). What you can also do is have the non-Nexus cardholders walk to the pedestrian crossing with ALL their belongings. The drop off point is just before the scard scanning station. Only had to do this once. Took some 10-15 minutes but the normal car wait was over an hour. |

The important point here is that ALL of the people in your car must be North American passport holders (i.e. Canadian and/or American; am not sure about Mexico). I did a border crossing at Peace Arch a couple of weeks ago with a friend visiting from Europe, and we were both required to exit my car (I'm a US passport holder, but live/work in YVR, and my car has Canadian plates) so that he could fill-out his I-94 entry card. The process took just 10 minutes, but was required.

Canadian or US citizenship is not a requirement, at least according to the Nexus website. http://www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/travel/ne...g-admis-e.html
Everyone in the car having a Nexus card IS a requirement. =aw |

My interview is in 6.5 hours. I'm sitting here with a NeoCitron, feeling like crap, haven't slept in 2 days. So, do they use the same picture from my Canpass or am I doomed to have a Nexus photo that makes me look like I'm in my 3rd day of heroin withdrawal?

Were you using the Nexus lane? If so and your friend didn't have a Nexus card, that's grounds for losing your Nexus card.
