Hi all,
My spouse (Canadian PR), 2 daughters (Canadian citizens), and myself (Canadian citizen) moved to Mexico last year. It has not worked well for any of them, so they are returning to Canada. It will have been 11 months of Mexican residency for them. I will be remaining a Mexican resident for at least one more year before returning to Canada.
The majority of our household goods, which we moved to Mexico from Canada, will be returning with them.
Looking at the form BSF-186, the "former resident" option appears to only be applicable if one has been outside of the country for at least one year. The other options (Seasonal resident, Beneficiary, Settler) don't apply.
Can you advise what the proper way forward is? I also have an e-mail inquiry in to CBSA, but I'm not sure what they can say.
Many thanks!
