    Landing and declaration of assets - Experts please help.

    When do we declare all assets (stocks, bonds mutual funds, deposits etc.) ? I understand that at the time of landing we need to declare only those assets, in excess of CAD10K, that we are carrying in bearer form (cash, cashiers check and stock certificates or other bearer instruments)...

    Moving to canada - what to do with investments

    As far as I know one doesn't need to declare ALL assets when landing. Only the cash/cash-equivalents like CDs or cashier's check need to be declared. When these assets are brought into Canada at a later stage, then one needs to show source of income. Probably some experts like PMM/Toby/Karl...
