OK folks, here's the situation. I have an "issue" that goes back 20 years but was serious enough for Canadian Customs to consider me inadmissible. Now, the only recourse I have is to apply for what is called a "Certificate of Rehabilitation" which would settle the crossing issue once and for all as it is a permanent document. I'm not concerned with the money involved (processing cost is $770US), it's the timing that's going to be the kicker. I had planned on reapplying with Trailways next May, but if I have to wait until around October 2018 to Feb. 2019, then it would push my goal way further than I hoped. So Monday, the Canadian Consulate is going to get a call from me and I begin my legwork to get all the documents I need, because if I recall, I can also apply for a Temporary Resident Permit (TRP) sooner, so that would be a stopgap measure until my certificate clears. The reason why I have to do this is because if I am going to drive motorcoach based in a border state, I MUST have the ability to cross the border.
