    Customs and Immigration Declaration upon returning after 3 years

    Are you referring to the online declaration when you are saying Number 1? I did not make the online declaration, I am expecting the on-flight form that is given out before landing.

    Customs and Immigration Declaration upon returning after 3 years

    Thanks for the reply. I stayed for about 3 months, left in the beginning of 2019. Since its been 3+ years since then, should I chose Visitor in the form? https://www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/publications/forms-formulaires/e311-eng.pdf

    Customs and Immigration Declaration upon returning after 3 years

    So number 2. What do I put in for the total value of goods? Total of everything I have with me including clothes, personal electronics? This is quite confusing.

    Thanks for the reply. I landed already and had to return but got stuck for the Covid-19 situation. Now I am returning with a valid PR but after 3 years.

    Activating Health Insurance Plan after Returning to Canada

    Thanks for your reply and explanation. I understand. Though it is still in the future, but in such cases, would you advice to wait for meeting the RO and then apply to renew PR card?

    Activating Health Insurance Plan after Returning to Canada

    What happens if I am reported? I already know that when I will ask for PR renewal I will have to justify why I did not meet RO. But what happens if someone is reported?

Source: https://www.ontario.ca/page/apply-ohip-and-get-health-card Does that mean I will have to be without Govt. Insurance for this 6 months (not planning for private insurance)? Also, since I will be...

    Hi, I landed in British Columbia in 2018 however before I get the Health Insurance Card I had to return to my country. I had to stop the service because I would have returned after one+ year.

    PR Obligation and Renewal Process

    Got it. Can this happen when a person is returning on a date from which RO cannot be met? For example, if someone is returning after 3.5 years of getting their PR.

    PR Obligation and Renewal Process

    Understood. Thanks for clarifying. Someone in an earlier post said that the officer in the border can also report an immigrant who is returning late and in that case that person will have to go to court, is that correct? I am trying to understand the legal process involved in these situations.

    PR Obligation and Renewal Process

    Thanks for the quick reply. Canada approved vaccine were not available everywhere. At that time Canada did not accept Sinopharm and traveling without being vaccinated always had the risk of getting Covid and the subsequent consequences including death. But my question is, if I miss the residency...
