Nexus card and RQ?

[itsmyid]

I remember someone had mentioned using nexus card would cause clarity issue when it comes to the record of entering US, is that true? I travel to the US about 4-5 times a year for business trip (each time just a couple of days) but had missed my flight twice this year due to the delay at custom, and wonder if it is worth the risk of future RQ to get a nexus card.

Thanks

Yes it is 100%%%%%%%%%%%%%% worth it, I am a permanent resident and I have a nexus card too, Its amazing how I go through the airport security and also us customs, I will say it is worth it for 50 dollars. I am enjoying my Nexus card.

a nexus card requires 3 years of continuous residence in Canada for PR, so it is considered a positive point in term of citizenship rather a negative as you already been vetted 1 time for 3 years residency

Same here I have a PR card and I'm using a Canadian travel document, a couple times got escorted to the secondary checking room at Pearson airport and I know this will happen again and again, I have no power to change that or make the customs process be more smooth.

This is not necessarily true; my wife came to Canada on a visitor visa in 2012, became PR in 2015, and got her Nexus in 2016. She had to have been living in Canada for three years regardless of whether she was a PR in status or not.

Correct. They just need 3 years continuous legal residency only within these 2 countries (not required to be a PR of either country).
