Bring copies of ALL documents uploaded to e-SAFE, for verification.
The receipt of Form I-192 confirmation email notes "You MUST bring the original uploaded documents submitted for verification to a designated e-SAFE port of entry".
As I uploaded a copy of my passport (for citizenship), I figured my actual passport would satisfy verification as the "original" document. Well, perhaps semantics and just silly me... no, apparently I should have had a photocopy of my passport. Thankfully, the agent went to the opposite wing of the building to make a copy. To my surprise, after verification that copy along with every other document presented was returned to me.
Application is for a 7th consecutive waiver. Reported to, at Peace Arch (Blaine) port. No fingerprints nor DNA sample taken. Except for having to begrudgingly photocopy my passport, the agent was quite courteous.
And, as others here have posted. The US agent gave me a form to present Canada Border Services indicating I did not enter the US. This addressed the current return to Canada requirement for a negative covid test. The CBSA agent did ask to see proof of vaccine.
