Any Green Card holders Ever get Authenticated?

if i recall, there was a big issue at the border in cornwall that also caused our CDN border guards to start carrying weapons. So i would imagine there is heightened security, that is probably why this happend. I can't find the article atm but i think it had to do with the indian reserve that is there as well.

k found a link explaining it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cornwall_Island_%28Ontario%29

bascially that bridge was closed opened and closed again and we had to make a temp border crossing. from may til september of last year this happend. My sister a couple months ago crossed to visit the usa and had issues crosssing as well.

unless of course your using the other crossing...iirc there are two in cornwall.

Yes, there was an issue with the Canadian border agents having weapons. Had nothing to do with the US side. I think thats why they probably dont offer Nexxus due to certain issues. Hopefully I will be able to move out of this region one day.

Do you have a Nexus card?

No, unfortunately they dont take it at the border that I cross and they probably never will.

There may not be a NEXUS lane for rapid processing, but both CBP and CBSA accept NEXUS cards as proof of identity and proof of citizenship for any land crossing. You'll go through your normal question/answer process like any other crossing, but the card will be accepted as ID.

Yes, but I have my green card as well as Cdn. passport which I showed them and they still wanted to authenticate me. Who knows maybe they will need to brand LPR's one day.

Hopefully it doesn't come to that. CBP will likely authenticate anyone they need to authenticate; I was only countering the comment that a border crossing "won't take" NEXUS cards; all land crossings on both sides should accept them as ID.

Ok, I was referring to a Nexus lane.
