Yes for sure! Just make sure she has all legal documents and a consent letter from her parents allowing her to be with you.

Charlie

She needs a letter of permission giving your mother permission to take her out of the U.S. It must be signed by both parents and notarized.

Make sure you have an emergency form signed that gives your mom permission to seek medical care in case of an emergency. As long as you have all of her paper work there should not be any problem.

You will need a consent letter from parents allowing your friend to travel. Prepare a letter of consent from the parents and mention your friends name, passport number, current address and the address at the destination. The letter should also say that the parents are giving your mom permission for take their daughter on a vacation. Don't forget to put the dates you are planning to be there. Hopefully this will be ok. Good Luck

i dunno i dont think this is the right place to ask this type of questions because some people will just say "yes" or "no" so they can get more points or stuff, so if i wewre you i would call like an airport or something

Pretty sure it is a go. I go across the Mexico border once a year. Same story. Just put your mom as a gardian when you cross.

You can be 16 and driving, and if you have the passports and stuff you could get across all by your self, so you should be fine.

As long as there is an adult present, they shouldn't have a problem with it.

Yes you can as long as you have all that stuff. i went to Canada with a friend when i was a minor. there was not a problem.

yes didn't you hear about that one guy flew his daughter and her friend to Mexico but then the small plane crashed killing himself his daughter and her friend

she can go without a parent as long as she is taken care of by an adult. get her pasport stamped, they are so cool

You should get a letter of authorization from her parents and call imagration and make sure that is all you need. Happy vacation!

It's really best to simply ASK legitimate sources.
With all that is going on in the world you don't want to have any problems.

Give a call to your Canadian Consulate, that is what they are there for.
OR....even the public library!
They would know!

With a birth certificate, yes. But a note from her mother might also be useful.
