I had my Nexus card confiscated about a year ago at the US border because I had failed to notify Nexus of a status change – I had gotten a TN1 Visa. i now have an E2 Visa and want to re-apply. is there anything I need to know or do before re-applying?
You should attempt to address the reason you card got confiscated. If you can’t do so in the online application, be prepared to do so in the interview as you will get asked about it if you get that far in the process.
I just got a DUI in Alberta and have a Nexus card-am I required/supposed to inform them of this? Also will this cause my card not to be renewed when it expires (not til 2020)?
Yes, you are obligated to inform them of your charge. If you have been convicted, it will likely result in the confiscation of your NEXUS Card.

looking for a letter of consent form to apply my daughter for NEXUS. This form is to be filled out by my ex.

I have a Nexus card but my husband does not because it was refused due to a DUI 2 years ago. Can I use the Nexus Lane and him the regular lane or because I travel with him I have to use the regular lane and not benefit my Nexus card? Also, when I filled the request and sent it by mail, I have specified his DUI, called his lawyer, called Nexus, etc. He was accepted for his interview and they refused saying we did not mention he had a DUI, then it could cause problem for a false declaration which is not because it was on the original request that I sent to them after the interview. Will this cause a problem for him to enter the USA now?
You can use different security lanes at the airport, if you must, but you cannot use different lanes at the border unless you are driving in two separate cars.
The DUI likely disqualifies your husband from NEXUS but shouldn’t have an affect on his entering the US as Canada tends to take drinking and driving more seriously than the US. It also depends upon which agency refused his NEXUS Card, CBSA or CBP.

There should be an option to indicated “Retired.”
I have applied for a NEXUS card and entered my current passport information. This passport expires next year. Will the card be transferred to the new passport, or will I have to redo the application?
If you have been approved for a NEXUS card once your passport expires, you can update your NEXUS membership at an enrolment centre. If you get your new passport before you are approved, you should bring both your new and old passports to the interview.
I have just applied for a NEXUS card. I have had three surnames that I have used; my maiden name, my (first) married name (which was hyphenated) and my current married name. What documentation is accepted for each of these names? Do I need a marriage certificate for both marriages, a divorce decree and marriage certificate for my current marriage, or is my current passport sufficient?
You should bring everything to the interview to be safe. They may or may not ask but, if they do ask, you want to be prepared to explain everything then and there.
