Lewiston Queenston Bridge, eh? That's a very busy bridge! Seriously, check the bridge reports the day you are traveling as the Peace Bridge may well be your better option. Either way, I'll stand at the side of the road, with a big "Welcome to the USA" sign, waving as you guys drive by!!

Thanks Julez!

And thanks for the tip. I just put that bridge b/c that's what I got when I put directions into google maps. Are the two bridges very close to each other? Plus the Peace Bridge just sounds so much more... well.. peaceful.

The Lewiston-Queenston bridge is slightly before the Peac Bridge, but its a muchh smaller crossing. It used to be very efficient, but these days it tends to be the bridge with the longest wait times. In fact, Griff and I made the mistake of using it when we were coming back from Niagara on the Lake last summer and we waited for over an hour!

The Peace bridge is much larger, so it can process people much faster. Plus, they are more likely to know what to do with a K1 holder!

Good luck in your decision. And if is a factor at all in your thought process, the Peace bridge is closer for me to get to for my welcome sign holding expedition!!!

you funny.

I really appreciate the tips actually. I would definitely prefer a place where they may be faster with the processing of the actual visa. I wish I remember which bridge we took back in 2004 when I activated my TN visa moving up there... but I have no clue! And TNs might be more common than K's. I remember we were there for maybe 10 minutes, they put it in my passport, and we were on our way. I think the K will take longer.

Thanks, Aly. Here's some more:

POE: 06.16.08

But we don't have a neat & tidy airport code to fit in the little box since we are driving across the border. (Look at my signature; try to fit that in there!)

Well - I made up a code just for you let me know if it changes though - I will have to invent a new Bridge Code

That is awesome Aly, thanks! But now I'm thinking we'll take Julez's advice and use the Peace Bridge. Hmm, what to do. That doesn't work as easily into a 3 letter code as QLB did.
