Hey guys,

I got my passport back and COPR in the mail (yay!) buuuuut our old address is listed on it. Even though I gave them our new one. I'm wondering if it'll be an issue with the IO when trying to cross the border. Does anybody have any suggestions as to what to do? VO won't tell me anything. I'm stressing out (again)! Help? Huh

Hi pegasusyt,

No problem for old address.
When you cross the boarder you will have a brief questioning by the officer at the boarder to whom you hand over your passport and original COPR. Tell him/her that your address is to be changed. That officer will update it instantly. Good luck.

oh, really? okay, thank you.. I hope it will be fine!

Does anybody know whether the goods to follow and accompanying  goods lists are an official form, or something you have to make yourself? I went to the border services website but couldn't find a form..
