went across at 615am Monday/Blaine - back into Canada around 6:40am through Peace Arch and..
...
...
randomly selected for covid test.
sheesh -
anyways, its not that much of an inconvenience i suppose. the border guy hands you a test kit, you setup a virtual/video conference call with a lifelabs tech who guides you into completion of the test (to make sure it is done properly), and then you can either ship it off (prepaid label) or drop it off at a lifelabs or shoppers drugmart. results were back within 24hrs - negative of course.

Lol what a fucking joke, you’ve got to mail the test or take it into a life labs?
I’m sure every person is completely isolating in that meantime.. ffs.. this is getting insane

I think you can also go into Shoppers and have them do the test on you to skip the whole video thing... I saw one person in this thread did it that way.
Setting up the video call is painful on the Lifelabs website.

For the people still waiting for ur renewals to be approved. Did u guys pay for ur renewal already or are u waiting to pay? My memory is abit cloudy but i think i remember them giving me an option and i elected to pay beforehand. Maybe thats why my approval was so fast?

Pretty sure you have to pay at time of renewal. I seem to remember a check out page when I renewed in January.

Got a question for u guys. Im taking a family trip across the border. But 1 member of the family doesnt have there nexus. Is it ok to drop them off at a the designated pedesterian crossing and then pick them up on the other side? And do the same thing on the way back?
I did this once b4 but only on the way back and got in trouble cause everyone needed to be in the vehicle that originally crossed with me

Basically everyone traveling in Nexus lane needs to have Nexus. The method you are describing is circumventing the condition that grants you Nexus in the first place and you and everyone in the car can lose your Nexus privilege.

what's worse is that you not only lose your Nexus privileges forever, but you'll be flagged as untrustworthy. you will be harassed each time you cross the border both ways for the rest of your natural life.
that's if you get caught
totally worth the risk
do it, do it, do it

I swear this is one of the first things the agents tell you at your interview about using nexus.

Has anyone applied for a child's Nexus? Any different than adult process as far as the application goes?
Do you have to make an account for the child?

It's conditionally approved. Just a matter of finding a time slot for the interview

Crossed at Osoyoos and US border guard asked for vaccination paperwork for the entire family, which is the first time we have been asked crossing into the US since the land border reopened  Thankfully my wife still had the documents on her phone.
