I am a Canadian PR living in Vancouver since 2021. I am taking a new role in my company and that will be based out of Seattle on H1B
My plan is to keep my Vancouver condo(my spouse, kids stay in Vancouver), and I would be driving to Seattle Monday morning and driving back to Vancouver on Thursday Evening. I have nexus so border crossing wont be a lot of pain. I will also be renting a small studio apartment in Seattle to crash Monday to Thursday.
The reason I would be doing this is I am not yet ready to move my family to Seattle(kids are set in good daycares, and in a good neighborhood) and we are literally 4 months away from our citizenship eligibility.
What I am not sure is if
1. Would I have to give up my BC driving license and get a Washington state driving license. Technically I would still be a Vancouver resident.
2. Do I need to register my car in Washington state or can keep traveling back and forth while keeping my BC license plate.
has anyone done this before. If yes, could you share your experience.
