| Quick Canada/USA border question
My mom is planning on bringing her friends son(17years old) to go shopping in Seattle. Im wondering if hes even allowed to come with us? Since he's under the age of 18?
Would it be fine? Or would he need to have written consent etc? Thanks. Posted via RS Mobile |

You can get a letter at a notary that clears him to go with your family under your mom's supervision. That's how my brother went with a friend's aunt when he was 16/17.

I used to work at a camp in point roberts and they required a signature from the parent of the child for us to take the kids over to the camp. This was about four to five years ago. So you might need to go to a notary now like ConeringArtist suggested, but we never needed one.

you have to have a signed consent form to go into the states if you're under 19?

Seriously though border guards are.. I've came back from the US with 4 people in the back seat(for 3) and a person beside me, on top of that I had my N on the back of the car. That was a long time ago though.

Parents traveling with children under age 16 and infants are required to provide proof of citizenship for each child. That may include original or copy of Birth Certificate, Consular Report of Birth Abroad, Naturalization Certificate or Citizenship Card. If both birth parents are not traveling you must have written authorization from the parent(s) or proof of custody. Failure to provide such evidence may make you inadmissable to Canada.
| Quote:
Parents who share custody of their children should carry copies of the legal custody documents. It is also recommended that they have a letter of authorization from the other custodial parent to take the child on a trip out of the country. Such a letter will confirm that the child is not being abducted or taken against his/her will. The parents’ full name, address and telephone number should be Included in the letter of authorization.
When travelling with a group of vehicles, parents or guardians should arrive at the border in the same vehicle as the children.
Adults who are not parents or guardians should have written permission from the parents or guardians to supervise the children. The permission letter should include addresses and telephone numbers where the parents or guardian can be reached.
CBSA officers watch for missing children, and may ask detailed questions about the children who are travelling with you.
