Well I arrived in the US on Nov. 14th. No problems at POE International Falls.

Applied for SSN on Nov17 and it arrived Nov. 23.

Green card arrived yesterday Dec. 7 - guess I'm done for 2 years.

Also found out I can just transfer my Ont. driv. lic. to a Wisconsin one without doing the test. Best news.
