Thanks, Leslie. I came across the border last September and haven't been back to the states once since. My mom has Alzheimer's disease and is in assisted...
Thanks, Mary. I never looked at the form since I'm not near applying for OHIP yet. I guess I should. At this time they're still on Jan 10 applications for...

Thanks for the welcome Mary, I appreciate it alot. We plan on settling in the Vancouver/lower mainland area surroundings as of now but that could change of...
Christine, why don't you call the good folks at the border where you'd cross and see if you can get them to give you a letter acknowledging that you have...
Hi Mike and welcome to the group, :) I just wanted to give you a tip on your security clearances. Most state clearances seem to get done rather quickly, but...
Terry and Nic...you don't have to land but you could and just put your car on your goods to follow list. That's what I did. Also just FYI, if you are traveling...
