Dear All,
Hope all is well.
I just received my passport request so I am planning to move to Canada in a few months. I have a few questions and any help would be appreciated:
1) I have a lot of jewellery. I am planning to bring some with me at landing, and bring some in the future.
A) How do I declare the jewellery I am bringing with me? Is there a form I can fill beforehand? Do I need to provide photos?
B) How do I declare the jewellery I am planning to bring with me in the future? Is there a time limit? Is there a form I can fill beforehand? Do I need to provide photos?
2) I have money in a bank account back home and I am planning to wire transfer it later on once I establish my residency in Canada. Is there a time limit to which I can transfer them to Canada? Is there a form I can fill beforehand? Do I need to provide bank statements?
3) I am planning to land in Canada for a few months (less than a year) then go back to my country for a bit. I heard that if I want to declare items to have them delivered to Canada duty free later on, I must stay in Canada for at least 12 months when I first land. Is this correct?
Thank you in advance!
Hope all is well.
