Congratulations!  Black's usually does photos to specific specs but they are relatively more expensive. Check with Costco if you're a member - many do photos too on the spot. And, take the spec sheet with you! Most folks seem to be sending copies of every page in the passport (nobody wants to take the risk!) so probably best to do that!

These are just some thoughts based on the information available, what I've read, and my experience. I am not an expert; if you want the facts, cic.gc.ca has a wealth of information. Good luck with your application! Hope you have a wonderful day *smile*

If I remember correctly you use the B4A form for goods to follow which is what I will use since Im not bringing anything and most of my stuff is already here.Can you add a vehicle as goods to follow or do you have to bring it when you land?

You can list it as goods to follow (make sure you list the VIN) but of course you still have to go through the export and import process.

I use to have all this figured out on what to do for landing but its been so long that I forgot everything I had to do.So I still do the import/export on my truck even tho Im not bringing it.I wont need the letter from the finance company until I bring it hopefully.

For the finance company letter from what I read you need one for the U.S. side saying its ok to export and a seperate one for the Canadian side saying its ok to import.So help from someone that has done this would be great.

Sorry, no, you list it at the time of landing. You do the export/import at the time you bring it to Canada.

Congrats!!! I went to Loblaws to get them done. Just bring the specification sheet with you. I've heard some Shoppers locations can do them as well. I sent a photocopy of my passport- every single page of it. Learned there are Native Americans and various other things on the pages haha. I've never looked at my passport that closely.
