Can we pin this thread? It's so useful!

[pocheros 101]

I agree this thread should be pinned. It even listed some things that I didn't think to do and I've been in the US for 4 months now

lol I'm freaking out because I don't know when I'm moving exactly and this list is haunting my dreams. I don't want to lose track of it

Is the Canada Post mailer (in the http://www.visajourney.com/wiki/index.php/Canada ) still applicable, or has this been phased out with the DHL courier requirements?

[Nuke and Tsy 1]

Found the answer in another thread, that yes the mailer has been phased out by the DHL courier requirement.

we have Cheese Whiz here in FL but it comes in really small cans and if you can find large its a canadain small lol

I went looking for Gravol one night and after looking all over the store i asked the pharmacist who had no idea, after looking up the drug name up on wiki they gave me Dramamine, also branded as Driminate, Gravamin, Vomex, and Vertirosan.

and we get my parents to send us timmies

oh and i noticed the Ketchup sucked but i thought it was just me lol

i would also kill for cheese curds

To apply for US based Visa card for some one with TD Account on either side the border, utilizing good Canadian credit history. Here is the application that you can fill and fax or mail it to the address in it.

If you don't have TD account, you can open one by calling 1-877-700-2913. Get your Canadian PP and Driver's license ready. They will ask you some unique questions supplied by TransUnion that will make your head spinning. Actually they will ask random questions from your previous residence address to your branch address or work address or phone number. They are all MCQs so you just have to pick the right answer. If all goes well, you saved yourself a trip to East Coast (where the TD US branches are located).

I'm adding a link to this thread as many members have had similar problems with the TPMS requirements.  Very good thread but we have too many Pinned threads to Pin it. This is the next best thing.
