Hey guys!

Bryan has his visa in hand, and is starting to plan his drive down next month. He'll be driving through the POE at I-5 in Washington/BC, and is wondering if there's a specific time he'll have to go to have an officer activate his visa? Is it a 9-5 thing, or would he be able to drive through anytime?

Thanks!

He can drive through at any time. Just make sure he goes to either Blaine crossing and not Sumas or Huntington.

I just entered on a K1 visa through Sumas two weeks ago. It IS a 24/7 crossing and it went as smoothly as you could imagine! In and out in about an hour with no problems what-so-ever.
