Yep because they don't like to hear about work being farmed outside the US. It's part of the NAFTA bs. I dealt with it a few times before. The best thing to do is say that you are part of the canadian branch of a US company, they can't give you bones about it then because you aren't in violation of NAFTA, you just need someone at the company in the US to "confirm" it.Comment

NAFTA is all about give and take.
Canada gives everything to the US and the US takes everything from Canada.Comment

Next thing you know they'll start to ask for DNA samples.. along ofcourse the passport... starting in 2008 i think.. Me think they should focus a bit more on the south border instead.. lolComment

I don't recall ever going through immigration while leaving Canada through an airport until I reach the US.
As for the passport thing......That, I was not aware of. I thought a passport was now required for any travel into or out of the US. hmmmm.Comment

My sympathies, went through the EXACT same thing 2 years ago
Its infuriatingComment

that's stupid...If you were a mexican saying you were about to go pick oranges, you would have been swiftly let in.Comment

Same shit happen to me. In my case I told them if I was going down to the US to work, wouldn't I have a laptop with me with all my saved work. It's kinda hard to work on the beach without my laptop. After that they let me in like they were doing me a favor. Little did they know I had everything backed up on my server so I could work when I got down there. Dumbass. lol!Comment

See, it's that attitude right there that probably got you denied...
Now if you were more like this guy, you could have breezed right in:

Better luck next time...US customs officials allowed Gregory Allan Despres, a clearly troubled person, into the United States from Canada. There were good reasons to worry about Despres:
He was carrying (presumably in his car) a homemade sword, brass knuckles, pepper spray, a hatchet, and—get ready—a blood-spattered chainsaw.
He was clearly delusional, talking about how he worked for the President of the United States.
And, as you can see from the photo, he could easily compete with Richard Reid, the wannabe shoe bomber, in a Most Likely to Be A Murderer photo contest.
Now, obviously, you can't detain a person because he looks creepy, and there were no outstanding warrants for Despres. Unfortunately, he was a murderer, and the blood on the chainsaw came from his victims.

100% forsure u would have been flagged they keep track of peopleHeh, yes well... they don't know that.
And I really did have thoughts about going back through, but on the slim chance that they do pull that crap again, I'd be screwed. Plus, I'm pretty sure that I am now flagged. I doubt they'd spend that much time on me there and not try to screw with me somehow (other than how they already did today).
who goes back to the border and try again .
ESPECIALLY the same day that it happened . It is
better that you don't even try cause you would
be double red flagged

that's not good.but it's way better than coping all your papers, passporrt, id's, driver licence, papers of everything you own just to prove that you have no intention to stay in the states, and still get no visa...That's bullshit
still life goes on

I find it much easier to enter the US with less questions if you fly from Canada and go thru customs at the airport. But if you live close to the border its so much cheaper to fly from the US than Canada.XXXRewards - Karups - Boyfun - Jawked. Paying on time since 1997. Contact me at brent [at] xxxrewards.comComment

Stu - have fun trying again next time. You're flagged. When I was immigrating I had to go back and forth a few times and I always got pulled to the special room where they confirmed my itinerary. I had to have addresses, dates, names everything laid out before they would let me in and they documented all of it.
They don't mess around anymore - and let's be honest driving to FL for a 1 week vacation just sounds fishy these days especially for someone who says they are a programmer.Comment

Yeah he did have a flight from Buffalo so its not as bad as saying your driving to FL for a week vacation. But they are always leary having you drive in with your own car if they suspect you could be heading down to work for someone else or for yourself.Stu - have fun trying again next time.
