H4 for Canadian citizen at port of entry or Consulate?

My wife is n H1-B and I am requesting entry on H4. I've been consulted by my immigration attorney to bring all paperwork (wife's 797, marriage certificate, etc) to the US port of entry and request H4 status there.

I called the Highgate Springs VT port of entry to be sure that we have everything they need and was told that I needed to apply for H4 at a US embassy or consulate, that I cannot request H4 at the port of entry. Search around various websites I noticed one site that suggested that Canadian citizens CAN simply go to port of entry for H4.

Any help? TIA.
