Anime would be nothing without art. This forum is here for artists to discuss the art show and artists' alley.

Artist from Canada wants to apply for AA

Post by The Bourgyman »

Hello everyone,
I'm an artist from Canada, who'd like to join Anime Boston as an exhibitor for the 2014 edition. I was wondering if there were any other Canadian artists here who experienced exhibiting there in the past? Were there a lot of hindrances to it? Any problems getting your stuff across the border? And especially, was the process of getting the EIN NUmber from the IRS and the Tax ID number from the MDOR a difficult one? This step scares me the most, since my spoken English isn't that good and that I don't want to end up entangled in lenghty bureaucratic-induced long-distance calls between the US and Canada (you can't regiuster via Internet form if you aren't a US citizen).

So yeah, anybody have any pointers for someone who'd like to join AN2014 as his first US convention ever?

Thanks in advance!
