MY LANDING EXPERIENCE AND OBSERVATIONS

[kim2011]

Thanks a lot HMISABPK for your prompt reply.

If in case we move to Alberta directly from KSA, will Alberta Health Insurance treat us moving from outside Canada or from within Canada? Kindly advise.
I made correspondence with Alberta Health Insurance, they replied me "If you are directly moving from out of country then your effective date
will be the date you arrive in Alberta."

Thanks & regards

Dear hmisabpk
You are very good human being, brother. Helping people a lots!. Can you kindly answer the question of mine. i heard, if you bring your used clothes, books and necessary things in Cargo with out declaring at the first landing time or B4 form stamped by CBSA ( I did not know that time), You should pay 13% tax. Is it correct? Will I pay tax m used things? I also lost my Landing paper.. it is 3 years back. I could not find it. Where should I need to apply to get my lost landing paper? Thanks in advance. 

Dear Hmisabpk,

Great help-- God bless you! I tried also call form here, but they CBSA did not answer the phone. I will try again. I have valid PR card Until 2013 Aug. and when I will be Toronto, after 3 monthes, I will call the CSI and report my lost landing paper.

Hi, Zero,

That will work. I am think there will be no tax or duty on used personal cloth, books. However you can try these number to make sure before bring any thing to Canada.

The Border Information Service (BIS) is a telephone service that automatically answers incoming calls and provides general information on CBSA programs, services and initiatives through recorded scripts.

                                        Service in English                 Service in French

Calls within Canada
Toll-free    1-800-461-9999                                           1-800-959-2036
Calls outside Canada
Long distance charges apply    1-204-983-3500,                 1-506-636-5064   
                                         1-204-983-3700                  1-506-636-5067

For those with hearing or speech impairments   1-866-335-3237
The information provided by the BIS is divided into the following categories:

* Personal or traveller
* Business importation/exportation
* Currency exchange rates
* Coming to Canada
* We encourage you to listen to the recorded messages before pressing "0" to speak to an officer.

Officers are available Monday to Friday (08:00 - 16:00 local time / except holidays) should callers require additional information.

During high volume call periods, callers will be placed into a queue until an officer is available.

Helpful Hints:

Touch-tone phone users may use shortcuts at any time during the recorded message:

Press "*" to return to the previous menu;
Press "#" to repeat the message.
Rotary-dial phone users cannot make selections from the recorded menus; however when calling during business hours, they will be transferred to an officer.

hope that helps,

Hi, Thanks again, I talked with them. They told me the used clothes/books I should need to pay the 18% tax and furniture is 8%. Now I am confused! So thinking one more time what I should need to bring.

Hey Zero,

Who did you heard from? You can also send an email message to CBSA.  Something black and white are always better than verbally.

I just want to convey this message to everyone as Sadqa-e-Jaria. One of my cousin got lung cancer few months back. That was really shocking to all his family members. Cancer diagnosed was of stage three. Immediately treatment was started from Pakistan most of the art hospital for cancer i.e. Shoukat Khanum Hospital in Lahore. But there were little chances to reverse the disease as it's already reached to stage 3.Than one day somebody told us about a person who is treating cancer by herbs. We went there and he gave us some herbal medicines for ten days. It was really amazing when we saw an improvement in the condition of my cousin in just three days after taking the medicine. After using the medicine for one month, there is no such thing as cancer in his CT report. The doctors of S.K Hospital are really amazed and they talked to the person on phone.(Person who gave us medicine). I'm posting this add because if even a single human life is saved because of me will be a great honor for me. The name of that person is Mushtaq Khan sb, living in Risalpur Pakistan. His Mob#0344-9728499.He is not charging a single penny from the patients and giving the medicines free.
I will request everyone to send this message to your contacts and if we are able to save some one life it's like we saved whole humanity.
I know this is not a proper forum for such things but I just want to save some one's life.

Hi everyone,

So finally i landed today via Niagara falls,Ontario.I am already living in Toronto.

Got my PR visa stamped in person from Buffalo counsellate today and then came back to Canada via Niagara border and underwent my landing same time.

The landing procedure was simple and straight forward.

1).Handed passports of myself and accompanying family members to Officer.She just needed to verify my current address ( i gave my driver lisence) and secondly job letter which mentioned my annual salary and she didnt ask anything else like bank statement.She handed over us landing paper and same time she took care of application of PR card herself (would be recieving by mail in 4-6 wks).

2).Reported to customs and filled up the form asking for household things which will follow later so could be exempted from duty in case if i get it shipped from back home.

So this was all.

And regarding stamping of PR Visa at Buffalo.I stayed overnight in a hotel near to buffalo counsellate and reached counsellate at 7-30 am.There was a line up and every one was sent inside at 8 am.The lady there took the paper of passport request with 2 photographs and passports which were returned to us at 10 am with visa stamped and landing papers to hand over at Canadian border.

I f you are driving from Toronto,you could go same day rather than staying overnight but try to reach at counsellate at 7-30 am so as to get your things done in time.

All the best every one.
