This year I am thinking of planting vegetables where I had my AG last year but last year I used Merit systemic and foliar on the patch. Would that still be in the soil this year? Should I stay away from planting anything we would eat there and if so, for how long?

You couldn't sell your produce as "100% Natural Organic" for 7 years but you're OK for home grown veggies. Indeed many commercialy available edible food crops are treated with Imidacloprid. Corn, Potatoes, etc. Do a search on Google for Provado, Gaucho, Admire, etc...they're all the same active ingredient as Merit.
