Hi all
I have few doubts in the process and would really appreciate if someone can help me with these complexities.
1. I am that not so rare PR card holder who till now havent been able to successfully submit goods to follow list on 2 entries(on my first visit "soft landing" they didnt accept it) i managed to call customer care and get the PR card, this time I entered on PR card but was not importing my car so no GTF lists)
2. I am in Canada, driving my US registered car and plan to export it from USA by end of this month
3. I read about "atleast 72 hours export notice" requirement. Can I meet the requirement by emailing the ITN and VIN, while the car is with me in Canada. 72 Hours window starts after I sent that note. Then after 2-3 days I drive to USA, I am on H1B so I can enter, and maybe after few hours I go to export counter and get it exported? Any obstacles?
4. I shouldnt pay duty or hst as a settler, what should be my argument if they say I didnt have this on my GTF list or there is no GTF list for me? I own this car from past 6 years?
5. If I do export from USA and custom at Canada side create problem and ask me to pay duty and all, how much would be that add-on cost for a 2013 hyundai elantra(market value of 4000) keeping aside the other RIV etc cost. lets call it the "hustle cost". my annual personal property tax considers it as $2400, do I take that receipt to show true car value?
6. Once I import it, do I need to do the inspection and registration within same month, within 45 days, within 6 months? Is there an option to extend this grace period?
7. What is the status of my car after I import it but dont register it in Ontario? Can I still drive it with the US number plate for the period in 6th question i.e. till i go for inspection and register it?
8. I will exchange my DL from US with G license in Canada in 3 months, I can for sure drive the car on my US license but can I still drive this same car after I get G license upto the grace period in 6th question?
