Question About Accompanying Goods & Goods to Follow

[AmericanMovingToCanada]

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 amount I'm allowed to bring? For example, my "Goods to Follow" totals over $40,000.00. I wasn't sure though if there is an allowed maximum.

Could anybody shine some light on this for me please?

Thanks for your help!

Happy Holidays!

You have to declare more than $10,000 in money, however not sure about goods. Call the Canadian border service and ask.

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 $5.00 maximum most places. So would I value it at $5.00 or the initial price I purchased it for?

Call CBS and ask them for that. Most people here aren't at that stage so can't advise.
