TITLE: Form I-94 - Important message from Embassy of Canada

Good day,

On February 25, 2025, the US Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS) published guidance for the requirement for alien registration in the United States: https://www.uscis.gov/ on how they intend to implement the alien registration requirement laid out in the January 20, 2025 Executive Order Protecting the American People Against Invasion.  

The new guidance states that any unregistered alien who remains in the United States for more than 30 days is required to register through an online USCIS account. Canadians who enter the United States by air are automatically registered, as are any Canadians with an immigration status or visa. Most Canadians who enter by land are not registered.  This group is specifically listed by USCIS as a target for the new registration requirement.

The process for registration has not yet been implemented.  Current USCIS information online reads: DHS will soon announce a form and process for aliens to complete the registration requirement. 

We are seeking clarification on implementation timelines and impacts. Please refer to Travel advice and advisories for United States for updates, once they become available: https://travel.gc.ca/

Note: I will be checking this site daily and will provide any updates
