Importing a Car [Canada to USA] Adjustment of Status

[canadiangirl24 1]

Not every car can be imported. Have you checked with the manufacturer to see if it even complies with US regulations?

Thanks everyone for the advice, I'm thinking at this point to just wait it out!

If the husband is stubborn enough to come with me because he doesn't want me to go alone to do chores after a long day of him working, then he'll just have to suffer! Haha.

I rather not risk it, I am definitely a worrier and getting my mother-in-law to drive it across the border really does make me wary of customs.

Honestly until you have some status in the USA or are included on his insurance (which he should add you to... it will make it cheaper most likely) if there was an accident, it could cost a lot of money.

Wait for your EAD and AP so you can import your car yourself. It's about 90 days. Make sure you can get a compliance letter during that time so that importing is easier. (And actually doable.) You dont have a loan on the car right?

I own it out right, it's a Ford Escape 2008.

And yeah, we were going to go on his insurance once the car was properly imported.

Okay get the compliance letter and import it once you get your AP
