These can include: Drivers license, Student ID card, OHIP/health card with photo. People travelling with a Canadian Citizenship card must have a photo on it and it must bear a resemblance. While U.S. authorities currently do not have a legal requirement that Canadians carry a passport, Foreign Affairs Canada strongly urges all Canadians travelling to the United States to obtain and carry a Canadian passport before leaving Canada. It is the only document that conclusively proves that you are a citizen of Canada with the right to return to Canada. Remember that a Canadian passport is still the best internationally accepted evidence of your Canadian citizenship and the best possible photo identification. Entering the USA - Identification of Permanent Residents and Landed Immigrants Persons with landed immigrant status in Canada must obtain a Non-Immigrant Visa in order to enter the U.S. (except for citizens of countries that have a visa waiver agreement with the U.S.) Visas can be purchased through the US Embassy or a Consulate. Temporary Visas may be purchased at a US border crossing station at a cost of $12.00 US Non Canadian citizens must also have a valid passport from their country of citizenship. If their citizenship is in a country that has a Visa Waiver Agreement with the US, then they must have a special type of passport called a machine readable passport - for more info on this, go to: http:// travel.state.gov/visa/temp/without/without_1990.html PLEASE NOTE: All non Canadian citizens should be prepared to be fingerprinted at the border at a cost of $6.00 US. Entering the USA - Identification of students under 18 years of age Regarding students under 18 years of age - adults (chaperones) who are not parents or guardians should have the children's appropriate identification (including a photo ID). The type of ID depends on whether they are a Canadian Citizen or Landed Immigrant. Also, the teachers must 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 guardians can be reached. Please note that if children are using a passport as their ID they must have their own passport rather than be an addition to a parent’s passport. Returning to Canada – Canadian Citizens Canadian citizens are required to have two forms of identification including photo ID. Returning to Canada - Permanent Residents / Landed Immigrants Permanent Residents / Landed Immigrants in Canada require valid passport and as of December 31, 2003 a Permanent Resident Card in order to return to Canada. Anyone without their valid Permanent Resident Card will not be permitted to re- enter Canada. They will be required to contact the nearest Canadian embassy or consulate to obtain a temporary document (which cannot be guaranteed) for a fee of $50.00, and will have to return home at their own expense. As a parent/guardian, it is your responsibility to ensure your child has the proper documentation to leave and re-enter the country. Here are some related web sites for more information. Passports – Future Travel to the USA Though passports are the document of choice for travel, Canadian citizens do not currently require a passport to travel to the United States. However, Passport Canada encourages Canadians who are considering travelling outside Canada to obtain a passport, as it is the most widely accepted proof of Canadian identity and citizenship. On April 5th, the United States Government announced the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative (WHTI) requiring all visitors to and from the Americas, including Canadian citizens, to present a passport or other accepted secure document (still to be determined by the United States) to enter the United States by December 31st, 2007. The WHTI will be implemented in three phases as follows: December 31st, 2005 - All citizens (including Canadians and Americans) transiting in the United States en route to or from the Caribbean, Bermuda, Central or South America will require passports December 31st, 2006 - All citizens (including Canadians and Americans) traveling by air or sea to, from or through the United States will require passports December 31st, 2007 - All citizens (including Canadians and Americans) traveling by air, sea or land to, from or through the United States will require passports RELATED WEB SITES 1.
