On March 31, 2022, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (“CBP”) announced the long-awaited reopening of U.S. NEXUS and U.S./Canada FAST Enrollment Centers in the United States. As of April 5, 2022, qualified new applicants for NEXUS – available for pre-screened Canadian Citizens entering the United States – and FAST – designed for truckers traveling between the U.S., Mexico, and Canada – may schedule an interview in the United States. And so long as they are otherwise eligible to enter the United States, they could appear at a reopened Enrollment Center as soon as April 19, 2022. Learn more in this blog.
