FAQ:
Does someone have to go thru the different CRI levels if they are offered, or can they be 'fast tracked'? If they are a 1* can they enter all 3 levels and if so, can those runs be concurrent or do they have to compete at each level separately?

The USEF answers: A 1* rider can only compete in the 1* division and so on with the 2* and 3* riders. We can fast track a rider which happens a lot as some of the top NRHA or AQHA riders have never shown in FEI. It wouldn't be fair for them to compete in the 1* division.

FAQ:
What are the requirements for United States Horses, Riders, and owners as far as the memberships or registrations/passports they must have to compete in a CRI?

¨ Riders must be a member of USA Reining, USEF and have an FEI registration.

¨ Riders do not have to compete on their own horse.

¨ Horses must be 7-years- old, using January 1 as their birthday.

¨ The horse owner must be a member of USEF.

¨ Horses must be Life Recorded with the USEF, be micro-chipped and have an FEI registration and an FEI passport. Obtaining an FEI passport can be a lengthy process and it is recommended that horse owners begin the process as early as possible.

¨ Horses must meet the requirements of the FEI Veterinary Regulations, specifically those under
Article 1028, prior to arriving at the competition venue.
