How to crossing the border with the United States and Canada?
After several years in and
out of the United States and Canada with the van, you end up realizing a number
of details that can simplify the tedious border crossing. It will always be
annoying, but if you follow these simple rules, the possibility of a bad
experience is much smaller.
These tips apply to all,
but especially for those traveling on four wheels, van, road, car or limousine.
Note that immigration
agents are human beings who are led by their impressions to guess your
intentions. Did you ever see the TV series Lie to me? Well, I'm sure they did
not see, she studied.
Take your vehicle ordered.
If you go to check your vehicle and find that is full of clutter, you may do so
completely empty. That's what happened to Zulema a grandmother Argentina a few
years ago made the trip to Alaska with her dog. She wore so much in its road it
was not possible to check what was behind the first line of boxes. I still
remember their obscenities online.
He speaks English. No
matter that the identification of the agent who serves you say Lopez, Martinez
or last name. As far as possible into the country must speak the local
language. Especially in the United States and Canada.
Do not be sympathetic, or
funny, or friend. Do not try to befriend the customs inspector or immigration
officer. First, because they already have their own friends. Second, because
even though we think the world should not have borders, they take their work
seriously. And your job is to keep the borders of their country. You can only
loosen the formal rictus if they start an informal conversation. They are
human, and you may like to travel.
The first or second
question is usually 'what comes to making our country?' Or 'where are you
going?'. It's your chance to make clear that X months or years you're traveling
and your intention is to make tourism, know your country, get to Alaska ago.
Pick out all 10 spots for those who are spending and the reciting. Nor will
pass the line and give them a lesson in geography.
Always have on hand a
direction in the United States or Canada. No matter you do not know the person
who lives there, for them is an important box to be filled. In addition, an
address in the United States will help you get insurance for your vehicle.
Immigration agents and
bloody / fussy customs are beginners and those who were born in another
country, who immigrated to the United States or Canada and got their citizenship
after many years of work. Of course there are many white but, if you follow the
three previous recommendations and crosses for an important step, usually arise
less doubt that Latinos (we touched on entering the first time in Canada),
Filipinos (the second) and Pakistan (third between Point Roberts and Vancouver,
British Columbia).
Never question his orders.
If you say that you park in a certain place, you do not ask. If they ask you to
open a door, you open that door. If you ask what's in a box, you tell them
what's in the box. Carefully read the signs around you, in some places you have
to stay in your vehicle or stop in a line or particular orientation. Do not
draw more attention than necessary.
If you have a passport
which does not need a prior approval, do not forget to fill out the ESTA
online. It is a form where you give all your data before traveling to the
United States. A few months ago Anna renewed his passport in Spain and should
have returned to complete the form before entering the United States. But he
did not. Fortunately the immigration officer had a good day and allowed him to
fill in the ESTA on the land border with Canada.
The final visa you would
get at the border, beyond which you have brought the visa in your home country
or you do not need a prior visa. The agent who serves you at the border is the
one who has the last word. Be kind and patient. Impatience border does not get
you anywhere.
If you are traveling,
always carry documents confirming your story. May be the address of a website
or blog where you counting your trip as you go, a relatively current summary of
money you have in your bank or your insurance valid for travel US or Canada
vehicle. It helps to have names of cities, countries, flags and maps on the
outside of your vehicle.
Not seen as a tramp. I
know the clothes we use is part of our personality, but it is important to be
clean, that does not smell bad.
Always try to crossimportant steps. On the border between the US and Mexico are accustomed to
travelers but not so between the United States and Canada. There are small
steps, almost neighborhood, where ever you want to look suspicious to cross
there. Remember that good border agents are important steps, and the wicked
fools and are inexperienced in the secondary steps. If you have everything in
order, these are the ones you can create problems.
Now prepare your best
poker face and good route. United States and Canada are full of amazing places
worth visiting. Another tip? Forget about the cities purchase the annual pass
to national parks and jumps National Park National Park without paying
entrance.
