Crossing the Border- No Ties

[MapleLeafBaby 1]

I've never been asked for any ties or had any issues...and I always said I was visiting my 'fiance'

But I do think the letter is good proof...

I think you should be fine

Good luck!

Wow. My husband was asked for proof of his ties to Canada EVERY time he came to visit me, even before we submitted our I-129F. We're talking 10 or more times. They asked to see his return flight tickets and asked him how much money he had with him.

I looked at him quizically after reading all these posts and told him about how none of you all had been asked for evidence of your ties to Canada. "Maybe they just didn't like your face," I told him.

He smiled, "Well, I AM pretty handsome."

But seriously - I don't get it! Oh, well. I guess it doesn't matter much now!

Driving cross they probably wouldn't even ask for proof or anything if you, your sister adn your mom went and said you were just going shoopping for hte day to David's Bridal. Because your fiance is American they may ask some questions (the 3 of you toether might raise flags) although if you have proof of your interivew date with you I'd say you have a very stong case that you will return!! The last time I crossed in a car they didn't hassle me at all because I was with other people and although we were meeting my husband we were going on a climbing trip. They can look everything up in their system (immigration forms filed/where you are in the process) but I don't believe it appears on their screen or anything unless they physically look it up!

You should make sure your finace has proof that he has a return flight/plans to go home to the US after the end of his visit or he may not get back in to Canada after your shopping trip!

I never did see my bride's maids dresses in person until just before my wedding. We ordered my dresses for my bridesmaids (2 of whom where Canadian and my husbad's sister who is Amereican) from DB and one of the Candians had never even tried hers on either! It all turned out fine!

I'm sure you'll be fine. I used to cross regularly to go shopping and was never even asked about anything immigration related.

I've even crossed with my fiance and when they asked our citizenship and he said American and I said Canadian, they just asked him how long he was in Canada and it was fine.
