Alborada...Look at the date of the post your replying too....one year old...it's just as the ACE program was starting...in the olden days we did a lot of faxing.
After reading about what all you people are going thru with these crossings no one has even mentioned your dispatch!
Does not your dispatch do anything?
Our company, we fax the paperwork to them and THEY fax it to the right broker and confirm reception and then check what time we can cross and get release numbers and all. We do not approach the crossing till dispatch gives us the green light.
If theres a problem that I didn't see on the original paperwork they can get them fixed while on route.....This is why we pay them!
I've seen so many drivers literally stranded by there dispatch, I find this completely unprofessional and reflects badly on any company that does not back up thier drivers.
I call the broker to confirm the fax is received and the PARS has cleared . There is no way I'd want a dispatcher in the process .
No PARS needed. The ACE Electronic Manifest makes all this talk of brokers, PARS and having to sit and wait days (days? really? on an ACE clearance? Really?) at the border for the paperwork to clear, pointless.
With all due respect Turtle, we at the Fed are still using our paps along with the Ace manifest AND the inbound cargo manifest....the Fed does the faxing after we fax to them but they are still requiring all of the paperwork named above.
This is a seventeen-month old thread that someone unnecessarily replied to, that brought out-dated and obsolete discussions into the present, that deals with coming into the US from Canada,
No PARS needed.
GGGRRR.... OMG <drops head, places hands on either side of head, pulls hair out of head>
No need to be rude.
Therefore, no PARS [are] needed [when you bring a load into the US from Canada]. That is exactly the point I was trying to make..... PARS STICKERS NEVER WERE NEEDED TO COME BACK INTO THE US FROM CANADA.....THAT STICKER IS CALLED PAPS!
SHEESH!!
Please Mr Turtle have patience with us peons....sheshhhh....The way you typed it and they Me and DD read it was 2 different things... We were the ones confused WHY you said about pars when the thread dealt with loads coming into the U.S. Some say tomatow some say tomawtoe... We all cool???
PS...It was YOUR buddy that resurrected this one from the dead...
As my cousin Rodney once said,"can't we all just get along?" DD.
