Has anyone RECENTLY applied for the NEXUS U.S.-Canada traveler program? (Also posted in general, if that's ok)

It looks like you have to undergo two interviews, one with U.S. and another with Canadian officials. Can we do both at a Canadian airport, or do we have to go elsewhere for the U.S. interview?

It’s a pain — we live in California, and there aren’t any interview offices anywhere near us.

Thanks for your all’s help!

The Nazis in the current administration will never pass anyone who is not a proven Trump ass-kisser. Just my opinion.

I don't see any advantage with this card.

my dual-citizen spouse goes to visit her when possible. We only used to go once a year for the holidays, but aging parents and kids mean we would be traveling there much more frequently. Especially with my college-bound dual citizen kiddo, it seems like it would be helpful, especially given the current climate.

Do you have one? I’m curious to talk to anyone who went through the process recently, as the interview locations seem strange.

in June, but the last time I was in Canada was quite a while ago!

I do not have a NEXUS pass, but I do have TSA pre-check, and that works really slick. I'm assuming that the NEXUS pass would work about the same. It also includes Global Entry upon returning to the US which would also be convenient!
