    Question about covid test exemption for cross-border workers

    Anyone traveling across the border regularly for work now? What's your experience with the covid test exemption? I am required to work fully in person and will need to start to do so soon.

    H1B visa appointment availability

    i think so. I was able to change the pick up location, though both locations are in the same province. i don't see why you can't change it to a different province. Note that there is a deadline to make such a change, and it is based on the time of your appointment. if you encounter any problem...

    i think a letter of employment stating your job title and the date that you'd return to work in person will work.

    H1B visa appointment availability

    just would like to share the info in case it would benefit anyone else. I requested an expedited appointment and got it. My appointment was in early 2020, then canceled 3 or 4 times and rescheduled to 2022. I need to go back to work in person in late Aug. Requested the expedited appointment a...

    I-94 travel history became unavailable?

    Don't worry. I had a similar situation and started this thread a while ago. My record has been restored, and I can view the full travel history now. I don't know exactly how it works. I am guessing it's a technical error or update?! Just wait for some time (mine took a few months) and check...

    My June 15th appointment in Calgary has been canceled (I live in the Toronto area but got it a while ago because that was the earliest one available). Now the next available date is Feb. 15th, in Toronto. Has anyone successfully requested an expedite appointment? I work from home now, but need...

    I-94 travel history became unavailable?

    I did check everything many times, and I am pretty sure that they are correct. I could view my travel history earlier this year, and before. Then it suddenly became unavailable. Right now, I can still see my most recent I94, just not the travel history. I suspect that it is a system data error...

    I-94 travel history became unavailable?

    Thanks. I've tried both but neither is showing up. When I crossed the border, the agent could see my record though. It's just not showing up on the website.

    I-94 travel history became unavailable?

    Hi, all, I regularly check the i-94 website (https://i94.cbp.dhs.gov/I94/#/home) to track my days in Canada and make sure that my commute is recorded correctly, but recently, my travel history became unavailable even though I entered the same info as before. It says "no record found for...

    Rumors about an executive order that bans the entry H1b holders around.

    Hi, all, I completed a web inquiry on CBP asking about AVR after 6/24. And here is the reply I received this morning. It looks like everything is going to be OK for AVR travelers! ----- Thank you for contacting the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Information Center. There have been no...

    Moving stuff from US to Canada in a UHaul truck

    We moved using a Uhaul. They did not even take a look at the truck... Basically, they process your paperwork at the counter, and then you are done. However, on the safe side, make a detailed packing list and mark your boxes clearly. I did that and tried to show the packing list. The person did...

    Rumors about an executive order that bans the entry H1b holders around.

    No. I commute once or twice every week, so still renting an apartment in the U.S. for the nights I stay in the U.S. The drive is too far for the daily commute.

    Rumors about an executive order that bans the entry H1b holders around.

    Yes. I am in the same situation (expired F1 visa), COS from f1 to h1b last year, and have been commuting using AVR many times. It is OK. The only thing is that not every agent at the border gate knows this rule, and sometimes you will be sent upstairs for document check (about 1 out of 3 times...
