Crossing into USA from Canada

Post Sat Apr 01, 2006 12:40 am

I am a landed immigrant in canada and i applied US Visitor's visa twice councillor rejected my visa stating that i dont have strong ties with canada.
Now after 2 yrs am a canadian citizen and planning visit US.
Can i still go to US and at the port of entry do they check my background that i got rejected visa twice..
In case if i find a job can they still approve my TN Visa.
Kindly reply

I would make sure you have your Canadian citizenship card when you cross the border. I think that's required.

Why don't you give the nearest US consulate a call? They'd know best! Just explain the situation, it'll probably be fine.

Good luck!

I think the moderator means your PR Card. (Permanent Resident Card).

I'm curious as to how you were able to obtain your citzenship so quickly. Normally you need to be a resident for 3 years and then the processing time can take up to another year.

For more info on how to get your PR Card you can check out the government website.

If you had issues in getting visitor visa earlier, that may be an issue in getting TN visa provided your qualification and job offers are genuine.

Can I go to the border crossing for a TN-1 visa and then immediately cross back into Canada to later leave for the US with my belongings? Are multiple entries into the US allowed on a TN-1 visa?

Yes, it is a multiple entry visa. Do Not surrender your I-94 until the expiration date.
