    Question About Accompanying Goods & Goods to Follow

    Thank you for your help! I have one more question - when valuing certain items, do you value them at the item at which you purchased it or what it's worth now? Example - When you purchase a Blu-Ray it's like $35.00. But when you try to resell them anywhere, they're normally not valued over...

    Question About Accompanying Goods & Goods to Follow

    Hello all! Finally crossing the border this Thursday after this whole Express Entry process. Very excited! I'm finalizing filling out my Accompanying Goods & Goods to Follow forms, and I just had a quick question - when listing the amounts of every item I'm bringing, is there a maximum total...

    Declaring Items We're Moving Across the Border

    This is via Express Entry though. I got the Express Entry Visa. And it's the "Personal Effects Accounting Document". (I believe it's the b4 form)

    Declaring Items We're Moving Across the Border

    I have a few questions about declaring what we're moving across the border with us. When we're listing items, can I group things together? Ex. "Clothes"? Or do I need to list like "10 t-shirts, 5 pairs of Jeans, 2 suits" etc. etc.? And in terms of stating how much they cost, do I indicate how...

    Proof of Funds at Border

    Thank you! Since it will still be in American account, and not physically on me, do I have to declare it since it is over 10 K? Or is that only if I'm physically bringing it over the border with me? I'm confused by that.

    Proof of Funds at Border

    Hello! I have a question about providing Proof of Funds at the border! What proof do we have to offer the Immigration officer? A six month balance statement/average like we submitted when applying in the first place? Do I have to have my cash or a check physically on me? Or can it all still be...

    Crossing the Border

    And I would just say honestly to the border control agent that I have a return ticket and that's that? They won't find that weird? I just want to double check. I was aware of the requirements of maintaining the PR, but I would feel much better moving up once I found a job. So my plan was to...

    Crossing the Border

    Hello! I just had a random question. Is it possible for a person to cross the Canadian border and deal with Immigration at crossing, but have a return ticket home or just book a new ticket home for a week or two later? Or will the immigration officers frown upon that? For example - were I to...

    Bringing a Car to Canada

    Hello! I plan on driving my Honda Accord to Canada when I cross the border to move; however, I have a question about importing it. It's not paid off entirely yet - the loan, through Honda - still has about $5,000.00 that needs to be paid before it's fully mine. Am I allowed to bring it over the...

    Ready to Cross Border - Question about Spouse

    I received my PPR back in July. Set to cross before the end of the month! I do, however, have a question about crossing! I indicated my wife would not be coming with me; she's a Canadian Citizen (has been living down in the states with me though), and wouldn't have needed papers of her own or...

    Passports to CPC Ottawa - July 2016

    Sent my documents up July 16th. On July 25th received an email asking to send new passport photos. They were delivered on July 26th. I've heard nothing since; return Tracker hasn't been updated. Sent an email this morning to CPC-CTD-Ottawa@cic.gc.ca to ask if the new passport photos I submitted...

    So does anyone know what the likelihood is of receiving PPR and then getting rejected after this fact?

    Passports to CPC Ottawa - July 2016

    Still haven't sent mine - because I'm still not 100% positive I need to send my physical passport or just a copy of it as I'm an American citizen and don't need a Visa OR an ETA to travel to Canada. People on here have told me just a copy...I'm just really nervous because I don't want to screw...
