The BEST thing to do is read the law for yourself...since you have been given a great deal of misinformation. See site below. Adults now need a photo I.D. and birth certificate and children need a birth certificate to cross the border by land.

nope you don't need a passport for "LAND & SEA" travel to Canada....you need a government issued photo ID i.e drivers license and your original birth certificate.You need a valid passport if you're flying.Passport requirements for Land & Sea travel delayed til Summer 2009

Until June 2009, US citizens don't need a passport for land or sea travel. You need one if you're flying.

not yet but soon

you will need government issued photo id and your birth certificate to drive in,if flying you must have a passport

if you are a resident and not a citizen you will need proof of US residency

No you don't.
I travel back and forth between the US and Canada at least once a month and as long as you aren't traveling by air (which I assume you're not) all that you need is photo ID and a second piece of identification such as a birth certificate, study permit, or certificate of naturalization. I've never been asked for a passport. Hope that helps :)

Not if you are driving, at least until the summer of 2009. You'll be asked basic questions by the Canadian border patrol.

I doubt you need a passport. I haven't been there in a few years so laws may have changed. It would be smart to have one. I went without a passport.

However they do check criminal records, so if you have record of any kind, they may not allow you in. They are very tight about who they let through.

And they check I-pods and computers and such for illegally downloaded torrents and files

I think you do now. I went last year and all I needed was my birth certificate. But I believe that now you do need a passport. Security has grown tighter.

Yes.

No. But you have to go through customs. They will check your car inside and out. Cannot bring animals, birds, any kind of fruit, or meat I think. Not sure. But I do know you cannot go over border with animals or birds.

when crossing borders from or to the us you need a passport even by car

Beth

As of 2008 yes, you do. Canada and also Mexico are now required to have passports to travel in their borders
