Hi All,

I will be driving from US to Canada for landing.
Planning on carrying cash and checks in USD. Will that be acceptable at port of entry?

Or do we need to carry only CAD as POF?

Please advise since I only have a couple of days left.

Regards, SWA

That's what I had too, USD, when I did my landing. Although I didn't carry too much cash. I just had $300 cash and rest in the form of bank statements and a bank verification letter. It was all accepted with no issues.

Yes, I landed from the US.
I am planning on driving up to Canada. Using a rental car. Did you do the same?
If you don't mind, I'd like to connect with you to learn from your experience.
Please inbox me your number, if you are comfortable with that.

Thanks, SWA
