Application process and interview were fairly straight forward. One hiccup was I got pulled into secondary crossing peace arch. Officer seemed to be suspicious that I haven’t used the land border crossing for about 10 years. I was 30 mins late for my Nexus interview due to that, but pleading with the front desk lady (shout out to her she’s the MVP) she was able to talk to the officers and they still went through my interview.

Hello,

I got conditionally approved today and have scheduled my interview. I declared that I had previously used a different name. I have been using my current name for a long time and all my documents are updated. I was also not born in the country I currently reside in.

Will I need to bring my international birth certificate and my name change certificate to the interview?
