    Shipping Personal Belongings

    Hopefully someone can help me here. I just moved to Canada from the US about a month ago. I had some of my personal possessions shipped because I couldn't fit them all in my car. I know that these were supposed to come in tax/duty free. I just received a letter from FedEx saying that I have...

    B4 form - Jewelry

    Hey everyone, So I know that I have to take pictures of any jewelry I may have and have it all appraised before I cross. Can I assume that this is only on anything of value? Example: My $10 necklace I bought at wal-mart doesn't need to be appraised and photographed.

    CPR copy

    So I just got my CPR today, and it looks like they sent me 2 copies and not the actual document. It has a water mark across it that says "Not valid for travel". Should I be worried?

    Just got my CPR today. I'm a little worried cause it's a copy, and it says "Not valid for travel" as a watermark across the paper. Is this still good? Just posted that question on the site, and someone confirmed it. So YAY! Got my CPR (no visa cause the US is exempt). I'll be landing in March!

    We aren't big on pictures either; we started saving emails, and I sifted through thoses and printed out a whole stack over the course of a year and sent that in. I also sent in copies of what pictures we did have, and copies of items that I saved from trips we had together (ex. the brochure...

    No I didn't. Based on some of the other applicants on this forum, I've noticed that some it's taking about 250 days since the application was recieved by the CIC. That would put us in aroud Jan 8th, 2013. So we might not hear anything till then :(

    Wait....fill me in on this. I'll be moving to BC also (as soon as the CIC get's me a PPR) and if my husband's MSP coverage is current, I can get added to it right after moving without having to wait? Am I missing any information?

    I'm getting really nervous now. I'm wondering if the letter was delivered to the wrong address, or maybe they sent an email, and I deleted it by accident. ???
