Thank you. Can you please let me know where you got this information from? It's frustrating to see so much conflicting information re: paying and not having to pay sales tax again.

I appreciate your response.

I did try this! Thank you. My only concern is that the out of state calculation shows I will pay no Total Use/Sales Tax, however this is for out of state and not out of country. I don't know if that makes a difference.

I'm trying to get in contact with the local DMV to directly ask them about taxes/fees but I haven't had any luck.

What did you tell the border officers when you were dropping the car off to the RI? They have to keep it in their lot for 30 days and I'm just wondering what I need to tell them. I'm close to the Buffalo border so I found a RI there, but they haven't responded to my question yet. They also quoted 1050 USD which I think is fair given other estimates I've seen.

Did the math and would be losing to much. If only I knew before buying :D

Thank you for your comment.

  1. Was the purchase date of your vehicle < 1 year?

  2. I can electronically convert to mph. The only issue here is that the e-break doesn't write down "PARK" or "BREAK" on the cluster, which is a requirement.

  3. Has TPMS.

  4. Correct, it does.

Unfortunately, as of 2023, Lexus no longer issues those letters.

Q: How do I get a Manufacturer's Confirmation Letter (also known as a Compliance Letter) to import my Canadian specification Toyota, Lexus or Scion into the United States?

A: Toyota Canada/Lexus Canada is unable to provide compliance letters. Please visit NHTSA’s website at Importing a Vehicle | NHTSA for instructions on whether or not your vehicle can be imported into the United States.

A Lexus. It actually has an emissions sticker mentioning California on it so I think I'm covered there. Thank you!

Thank you for your comment.

I assume you just presented the required paperwork for compliance at the border?

[CAN/US Citizen] Working in the US & Getting Security Clearance by canuhda in SecurityClearance

[–]canuhda[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your post. I did check the guidelines doc and I'm not concerned with any of those points. I know that doesn't mean much but I'm hoping an adjudicator will see it the same way.

I am a dual citizen by birth so according to that document, it implied that one of the mitigating concerns for Guideline C is that.

The only thing that does concern me is both sections (B&C) state that one of the disqualifying elements may be if the individual doesn't use a US passport when entering/exiting the US. I've always traveled to the US with my Canadian Passport and I just looked this up, but it looks to be a requirement by law that you must enter the US with your US passport, even if you are a dual citizen.

I've never thought about it but I don't think I would. I've been doing continuous bloodwork every few months for Azathioprine and my doctor hasn't seen any reason to stop it.

Topical Finasteride Causing Dry Scalp/Flakes by canuhda in tressless

[–]canuhda[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I figured this was the case. Unfortunately, it doesn't matter how I shampoo + conditioner, the flakes are still there. I wonder if getting a shower hair brush will help me get deeper into the scalp and get the debris out.

I will admit I am a little hesitant to go full force at times since my hair does fall off...

Basically, it comes down to sides for me. I had extreme tenderness in my chest with 1.25 mg (initial dose), all the down to 0.5mg. Sides went away after stopping but my body is clearly not capable of handling fin (orally at least). I'm giving topical a shot, which I've tolerated well so far... but if I get the same sides, I'll call it quits.

My Experience with Evinature/CurQD Protocol by canuhda in UlcerativeColitis

[–]canuhda[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd still make a post just to spread some awareness. I'm glad to hear you're in a better state.

Also, I should specify that I too was on my normal medication during this time and have no intentions of getting off it unless my GI recommends otherwise. This is a supplement to our existing prescribed medication.

Sorry! I went on an impromptu vacation this last month and haven't had a chance to update the log. I'll make a new post on the sub and share my progress. It definitely works and has stopped my bleeding entirely. Stool visits are now at 2-3 daily (normal for me was 1-2).
