LOL Amazing.. good for you!!!

 

My hubby bet me that the US women's and men's team would both take gold. I bet him that Canada would take both. I won. He had to run down the street with the Canadian flag screaming that Canada had the best Olympic teams and that we ruled the Olympic hockey world while wearing a sign on the front that said Team Canada Olympic hockey rocks. Foolish man he never should bet against the power of red and white. rofl.gif

Oh I know about all that.. Don't worry.. I know this process is not cheap..

I was mainly wondering about the medical.. Thanks for the info.

 

EDIT - Just noticed you live close to each other. That should help cut down on costs but not as much as you think. Remember that once is all and done you need to get married and file all over again for adjustment of status and then two years after that for removal of conditions.

 


ya I will be..

I found the page you listed right after I posted my original question lol so it answered a lot of it!

Thanks- silly me.

Also wondering.. when it comes to the medical... how do you know which doctors you are allowed to go to?

Are there some for most major cities.. or I should expect a drive somewhere out of the way?

Hey guys-

Just a quick question..

Haven't received NOA2 yet.. but I just wanted to get an idea..

Fee wise once the process comes over to me (the petitioner) what fees as a Canadian I'm looking at from start to finish..

I know it is different for different countries.

I'm most curious about the medical.

 

Thanks.

CanadaA rant on attempting to book medical...

Wow.. Ya that really does suck.. I'm sure it will work out though.. I agree with the last person that posted... Plea your case... and see if there is a way they can squeeze ya in..  If not it might end up being something more inconvenient.. which really blows.. I'm sorry... Vent totally justified.

wow.. lots of info..

THANK YOU..this is lots of help.

What make and model is the vehicle?  This matters in helping determine whether you can import it, and how easy it will be to get the necessary documents.

 

Moving to Redwood NY?

When we went though the Alexandria Bay CBP, the guy we spoke to wasn't entirely sure how to do the process and had to look it up and chat with others that had done it before.  He gave us 3 forms, the 2 listed above (hs799short.pdf and 3520-1.pdf) as well as a http://forms.cbp.gov...P_Form_7501.pdf and made us fill them out while we were there.  The CBP7501 will most likely need to be completed with their help, but I remember they wanted the value of the vehicle on this...though they pretty much just guessed.  NYS DMV will not accept the import without the VIN on all 3.  On the 7501, they just wrote "See attached page", which the DMV did not accept (CBP later said to write the VIN on it ourselves and go back).

 

As for the NY side of things, use the Visa in your passport (or the I94...can't remember) and your Ontario drivers license to transfer your license.  You should get a 1 year license ($64.50 according to DMV site).  Once you get your green card, go back and have them remove the 1 year restriction, I think that was a $12 fee for us. That also means don't wait to start the AOS process, I don't really know what your options are if you don't have the green card by the time your license exipires.

 

If you use an insurance company that operates in both the US and Canada, youmight be able to transfer your insurance policy down.  NY requires that your insurance be through a NY agent, so you can't use your Canadian insurance.

 

For the vehicle itself, start with the NYS inspection.  You can get it done at any dealership, most repair shops, and some oil change places.  Make sure your check engine light is not on...otherwise it will fail inspection.  I think the fee is still $21.  This has to be done every year on the same month, and you get a little sticker for the corner of your windshield.

 

Once you have the inspection and insurance, then you can register your vehicle.  In the end, you should get a "title" which you keep at home, new license plates, your registration card, and a registration sticker which goes next to that inspection sticker on your window.  We had some trouble here, we got everything except the title fairly quickly.  In the end, they wanted to see a copy of the purchase agreement/receipt before they would issue the title...so bring that with you to the DMV when you get it registered.  $25 for the plates, $50 for the title, and the registration fees vary depending on the vehicle, but around $35.

 

NY requires this to be done within 30 days of becoming a resident, which starts the day you enter NY on the K-1.  I know I wrote a lot, but I think I covered everything I could think of.

 


Thankfully I own it outright. :)

 

Also an important question to ask if there is a lien on the car or do you own it outright?

CanadaHere's a question for ya

was it difficult?

I'd love to hear about what you had to do

 

Might be better having this moved to the Canadian forum - many of us have done it
