Thanks for pointing that out, a typing mistake on my part.. banks statements are used at the time of application and not at the time of landing.jazibkg said:Thank you for your response. However I'm sorry I don't still get what you mean. You have kind of contradicted yourself here in this sentence.
I myself am a relaxed, carefree and frequent traveler, my parents however were panicking so they gathered such documents (proof of funds). Different people told my parents different things and scenarios, so their level of panic kept increasing and they kept wasting time in such things. I myself spent time in printing off the photos of the jewellery and all. However, no stamping was done at the airport. But other travellers have different experiences.
The CBSA officers did know we were entering the country as landed immigrants for the first time (you have to show your passport before you get anywhere outside the airport gates - and we must have showed our passports with the entry visas as well as landing documents to at least 3-4 different groups of CBSA officials). I think you are right in that we should have to demand the stamping of the forms, however this request of ours was declined. However, I think we brought anything we wanted to within our luggage and no more goods should follow apart from personal effects whilst travelling.
Will edit my post now.
If you don't have anything taxable coming in later anyway, then you are good to go... Welcome to Canada
