PIREP on Flashpass

[RobertE]

I don’t know about you but I’ve studied the process for eApis and there is nothing intuitive about it.  Well, I just downloaded an app called Flashpass and it makes everything simple and straightforward.  It’s available in the Apple App Store and, I assume, on the google equivalent.  $60 per year.  I’ve heard enough stories of US Customs horror stories that, cheap bastard that I am, I couldn’t resist.  No regrets.

Also you can simply type in custom sticker number "pending"and pay them when you cross the border

I believe that's outdated info Kelly, the border stopped selling the stickers years ago. The only source is online and I believe you need a real number to file. But within a day or two you can see your new sticker number on line well before you get it in the mail. So just get your sticker number online before you depart and print out your reciept and the border guys will be fine with that.

I wrote my own XML interface years ago when the system first came out. Takes me just a couple minutes to file both outgoing and incoming manifest.

For about $50 a year, folks can join Bajabush and use their free system for filing both Mexico and US eApis. But frankly they have improved the US government website alot over the years that I don't think it's so painful anymore.
