CanadaIssue with my medical yesterday. I need some advice.
Get your tests done and the results to him. My daughter has been having problems with her tonsils and I took a note from her dr. stating she had tonsilitis. He didn't have any problems with that. So once he knows it's been taken care of and submit proof of what it is/isn't, he should complete your medical.

I have to pay to go to Canada from NYS. Sure it's only 3.25 but I don't pay it to go home to NYS.

CanadaPOE Lewiston

I was told that the visa in my passport with the stamp is my temporary green card. Asked if I would have any problems moving my stuff the following weekend and was told no.



Husband called before we activated our visas as well.

Sdw-Ahh..That makes sense.....Queenston/Lewiston it is then!
Lol..I dont care for the rainbow bridge either (unless I'm going to Niagara Falls)....they don't do POEs well..lol.....
Again, congrats on crossing over...Welcome to NYS and America!

Hi Sdw,

Congratulations on having a successful POE! And thanks for sharing about that experience here on VJ!

Lol...So what made you decide to choose the Queenston Lewiston bridge for your POE?

Nevertheless, glad to hear that al went well there, with no problems...

Welcome to America and to NYS, Sdw and Family! :star: :dance:

Good luck with your move and good luck with the rest of your journey too!

Ant


Thank You

Decided to POE at Queenston-Lewiston because that's the bridge I use more often than not when I was visiting my husband. Don't care for the Rainbow bridge at all, and Peace bridge is out of the way.

Yvonne and I would likely enter there, too; I usually stop at the Smoking Joes location on NY-31 on the way home for cheap fuel. :D


Hubby stops there too.

It was, we had no hassles at all. The Officer we had seemed to know what he was doing.

Decided to do POE today to save time next weekend when my dad is helping us move. So got to bridge about 9 am today, got to booth and told Officer we need to activate our visas. He was very nice and told us we had to go inside and made sure I have the Do Not Open envelopes, which I had in my lap. He said be sure to take those inside, then told us to pull ahead to the officer there and he'd tell us where to park and go. Once parked we went inside, sat for maybe 15 minutes before we got called to the counter. Once at the counter the Officer asked for packages(myself and my 2 kids), told us to go back and sit down. He did some paperwork before calling us up for fingerprints and signatures(He asked if I minded him doing the kids). Then we went back and sat down for a few minutes before he called us up again and gave us our passports back stamped. Explained what to show when crossing the border and that our actual cards would be sent to the address on our paperwork. Ask about moving my stuff next weekend and he said I won't have a problem as it's our personal belonging. We were out by 10, although didn't seem like we were in there for an hour.

CanadaGreencards came in today.
Actually did the DMV on Friday. They accepted the stamped visas along with there birth certificates.



Sdw-Congrats for you and your kids getting the green cards and SSNs. Wow, that was quick, indeed!
Btw..When you went to the SSA office, did you just show them the stamp/visa in the passport, since you didn't get the actual green cards yet?
Just wondering...As when I just showed them the stamp, after my AOS was approved...They gave me problems and delayed because of that...(lol..this was years ago though, at a different NYS SSA office...lol...maybe I should have gone to the Niagara Falls office instead....)
Now onwards to the DMV for you! Good luck with the rest of your journey too.

sdw, did you go to the SSA office on Niagara Falls Blvd, near the thruway? Hows my wife going to go there, we don't want her to have to take a day off, especial;ly when working in Canada...someone else said I can't go for her?



I didn't for myself I checked the box on my DS230 and it came. I had to go to the office on the Blvd. for my kids. Checking the box on the DS230 only works for people over 18, my kids are 12 and 9.


Thank you everyone.

Hope you get your stuff soon LGG.
