I have Nexus. With the dollar this low, getting Nexus maybe a good idea if you travel to US frequently. However Nexus has lots of rules, some are listed below.
- Only the Nexus holder can use Nexus lanes
- Nexus holder cannot drop off passengers before custom (this is enforced a little bit more lately)
- You need to carry the "declaration form" and fill it every time you come back to Canada
Other than that, the application process can take anywhere from 4-5 months. I applied in Nov, and I had my interview at airport in March. My schedule appointment was at 2:45pm, and the US custom didn't see me until 5pm.
