Three technical questions :
1. After finishing the landing (but without a PR card) can I visit my friends in the US in Detroit ? Will we need a US visa ? We have valid visas except for one of my daughters. US no longer allows Canadian PR card holders visa free entry. Your daughter will not be allowed to enter US without a visa. Also unless you plan to drive back from US, you will not be able to return to Canada without the PR cards.
2. The jewellery that we want to bring later should be photographed and officially evaluated by a jeweller with their stamp or just our estimate with pictures will suffice ? I did a self evaluation and printed the photographs and had no problems whatsoever, however another member encountered issues recently with the visa officer when he did not have a jeweler's evaluation.
3. The electronics, namely iPad, computer and camera and lenses will also follow later. Do these also need pictures and serial numbers or just a list will do? The things you have mentioned, are common devices one would carry on their person when going to another country. Just mention taxable items, as that is the purpose of the list, to allow you tax free import of the items you will bring later.
Thank you.
