Hi,
I am in Canada with a work permit (valid until fall) but I am planning to move out soon, to the US. However, to get to the US, I need to leave Canada to my home country to get the US visa. At this point I won't have work or my apartment any more.
My trouble is what happens with all my stuff here and how can I move it to the US? I want to put all my stuff into storage, leave Canada to get my immigration papers for the US. Then drive to the US with all my stuff. My new place in the US is a mere 4 hours from my current place in Canada so it's easy to just drive everything down.
However, because of COVID I am afraid I cannot re-enter to get my stuff. While I would be fine without my belongings for 2-3 months I'm afraid I may not be able to get things for another year or more (during normal times, I can easily enter as a tourist).
Is there any time of exception to just transit through Canada (like landing here, get a truck with my stuff and immideately driving to the US)? (I know there are similar exceptions in Europe).
What would you do in this situation?
