Canadian visitors to Montana may face nearly $1,000 in additional costs due to a new border rule.
The rule targets "snowbirds," Canadians who spend winters in warm places like Florida and Arizona. It introduces extra travel authorizations, new tracking systems, and a fee that can quickly add up with multiple trips.
Retirees with winter homes in the States may need to hire a service to navigate the tax code and documentation, making the snowbird migration quite expensive.
The new rule could slap Canadian snowbirds with almost $1,000 a year in paperwork and fees.
