    US ID proof for commuters for doctor's appointment in the US

    I showed my passport with my visa stamp once, I dont think there are any laws that mandate to show any ID with address. They just want to ascertain you are the one who is insured and you are who you say are. If they insist on state issued, get the state id whats the big deal? One thing make...

    TN VISA

    As far as I have seen last around 10 years, TN visa adjudication is lot more rigid. Substitution, equivalanecy and evaluation as same or similar, has limited success.

    Some may argue, say I filed AOS when I was physically present in US and then I travel on other non immgrant status H1b/TN. In this case naturally AP will be denied without affecting rest of I485 petition. But other non immigrant status gives you flexibility to travel, does that give you...

    Weekend commute from USA (NY) to Canada (Ontario)

    Weekend travel is fine, as long as you have the H1b stamped (preferable for US entry) and PR (or any other visa for Canadian entry). As for daily travel Rochester to GTA, that is not feasible.
