How do I get the title in my name? Apparently right now the Title is in the name of BMW Financial services/the BMW dealership who I purchased the car from.
I told them I would like to have the Title of the car in my name, but they said they cannot put my name on the title with a Canadian address? Not really sure how this works.
How have others overcome this problem?
Thanks.

When you go through CBP (US customs), you need to present them with:
1. Title or Certificate of Ownership
2. Bill of Sale or Invoice
The combination of the Title in the seller's name and the Bill of Sale documenting the sale from the seller to you will prove that you are now the rightful owner of the vehicle. CBP will then stamp the Title stating the vehicle is now exported. You can then take the vehicle and the Title (and other documentation) to the CBSA (Canadian customs).
