    PGWP and SOWP - ways to keep spouse's job

    Customs declaration card

    Thank you very much for the response. From what I understand from the website it doesn't matter if it is traveler checks or cash, all type of money you carry on you is counted in the 10000 CAD. We just didn't understand if it is per person or for both of us together. Thank you for all the tips!
