    Goods to Follow List - Moving more than one year after Landing

    Making this entry here to help others who may have the same question in the future. We have travelled to Canada and moved here permanently recently. I did make a revised Goods to Follow List and explained the situation at the airport. The revised Goods to Follow List was accepted.

    Goods to Follow List - Moving more than one year after Landing

    @NZ_ozzie you should follow the process to enter Canada as a Settlor for the first time, i.e. prepare a goods carried list and a goods to follow list (2 copies). Declare both these lists to the Customs officials at your port of entry. Obtain a stamped copy of the list from the Customs officials...

    Coronavirus impact to stay requirements

    Hello, I and my family are in a similar situation as nicmart but with a further complication. We did our soft landing in April 2018 and had plans to move permanently in August 2020, which would have given us 2 years and 7 months to complete our RO, which would have been ample time. However, my...

    Soft Landing Experience

    Yes, that's right, we didn't get asked for any documents. I had only noted this on other forums hence went through the extra effort of carrying the documents. But the links you've shared are pretty clear about this. Thanks.

    PR Card Photographs

    Thanks Bs65. I ended up calling CIC & CBSA to check on some of these queries; turns out the wait starts from the beginning - so we have another 58 days wait :( but on the bright side, she can enter using a PRTD or using the original landing papers (COPR) from the land border (from US) in a...
