Hello All,

Don't want to create new topic but other threads are inactive. Hence creating as new topic. Please help.


My brother sponsored his wife and now she got DM after 2 years. She will be landing in ON, Canada. I have following two questions. Please advise.

Question 1: She is planning to bring her jewelry(Gold) around 50-75 grams and land in Toronto. Do we have to declare jewelley ? if yes. How to declare and which forms to fill ? Also if there is any other guidelines. Please provide your feedback. Appreciated.

Question 2: My brother sponsored his wife in Ontario. and now they are planning to move to Quebec. Can they move to QC right after landing in Ontario and settle in Montreal(Quebec) ? Is there any problem with moving to Quebec and apply for Quebec health care after landing in Ontario ?

They don't want to take any risk since she is 4 months pregnant and they want to apply for health care asap after landing. Therefore, Please help and provide your feedback and advise.

Thank you very much for your help.


Best Regards
Arvind.

actually, i don't think this is true. i'm sure senior members will confirm. i believe if the person lands in QC, then the CSQ is needed. If a person lands in another province and wants to move to Quebec, then they don't need to do anything nor notify CIC. I've never heard of someone needing to apply for ontario healthcare first before moving to another province. that doesn't make sense to me, as there is a 90 day grace period before a person is eligible for OHIP. i don't see how Quebec is going to care if someone was already covered in another province. the Quebec healthcare is based on residency in Quebec, and it usually doesn't matter if the person lived in another province before applying to Quebec healthcare... at least this is my understanding.

To the OP, if the PR already landed in Ontario and wants to move to Quebec, then I don't *think* anything needs to be done. After landing as a PR, a person is free to move around the country as they see fit for their life needs. The issue comes into play if you try to land in Quebec after telling CIC you want to live in another province. Then the PR would be required to do additional paperwork.

There shouldn't be any issue with applying for Quebec healthcare, assuming the PR meets the residency requirements for that provincial's healthcare services. you will need to check the provincial services site for information on that. I'm sure senior members will confirm whether my assessment is correct or not...

it's not guaranteed they will send it to a changed address on ECAS. you are better off calling cic about the best way to change the address for pr card processing or sending a case specific inquiry about it.

Thanks Champ for your prompt response.

I have follow up question.

Also she has condition 51 on Landed paper. But both of them moved to Quebec and stay together.

Is it safe to change address from Ontario residence to Quebec Residence ? In Short, will CIC object or suspect why she moved to Quebec since she was sponsored as spouse from Ontario ? ?



Please advise and provide your valuable feedback.

Thanks
