I agree with you. it is always safe to follow the rule.Fencesitter said:Thanks for the information.
I have another question: under 'Former Resident' there are a couple of checkboxes...do I select all of them or is the first one fine (the one about being absent from Canada for at least one year).
As for the B4 forms, well, I have already completed them with the excel spreadsheet + pictures of the jewelry + total values for everything. I think it is best to hand those to the CBSA officer and get him/her to stamp them so I never have to worry about these items being taxed in the future. Is my understanding correct on that?
One week and we're off to Vancouver! It seems like forever since my wife was granted the visa....now the next hurdle is to get her PR card before September 2013 when we will make our way to Canada for good...

You should check the box Former resident
and your wife should heck Settler
The customs tariff is different for both. However, as there will not be any duty payable, the tariff does not make any difference.
