Goods to Follow example

[avb519]

Dear forum members,

I will be landing at Niagara Falls with my family at the end of February and coming back to the US after two days.  I need advice on how I should prepare the list of goods to follow. How detailed does it need to be?  Any links to this info welcome.

Thanks.

Well, it all depends, what;s your goals there, I mean why you are going there, is this a recreational trip, holiday's or some business? you can select the things accordingly

The goal is to land and do the paperwork to the PR card.  We'll be permanently moving to Canada later in the year when I settle all things in the US - sell the house, etc.

I heard that you need to have a list of goods to follow so that you don't have to pay tax on them when you import them in Canada later.  That's why I was hoping to get some info on how to do the list and what to include.

Many thanks!

You do 2 lists, a goods to follow B4 & B4a  and another goods B4 & B4a for goods to accompany.  You include all the goods that you intend to bring to Canada.  Electronics/Cameras should be listed with their serial numbers, Jewellry should a photo and valuation if expensive and in the goods to follow list.  Other stuff such as clothing would be listed as xx boxes used clothing nil value, xx boxes housewares $xx.  See: http://www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/menu/AFAF_B-e.html

PMM, thanks for your response.  Just to clarify a few things - clothing, furniture, general houseware should have a $0 value on the form.  Right?  How do I go about determining value for my car, computers, camera, power tools and all other electronics?  All are used.

Thanks!
