Can I travel to Canada via USA?

Question

In october I'm going to be working for a year in Vancouver. I was looking at flying into Chicago from London on a return ticket 7months later(The latest i can book my return flight) And making my own way across the USA to vancouver. Will i have any problems with immigration doing this. I will have proof i am returning to the UK with my flight ticket, my working visa and letter for Canada. And i intend on buying a separate multi-city flight from Chicago to Vegas to Vancouver.

Will this be a problem or am i going to be ok?

Should i just book a London to Chicago and Vancouver to London ticket instead?

Any informative help would be most welcome

thanks

Answer 1

You will have no problems with this - you will be given a green visa upon entering the US, and will give this back when you leave. Connecting flights to Vancouver will be no problem.

Good luck!

Answer 2

If you are eligible to travel under the visa waiver program you have only to show this and your passport at US points of entry and departure. Have fun.  :0)
