Goods to Follow Form

[Abhi1982]

Hello all, I will be landing in Canada next week on PR. I am working on the goods to follow form. My questions are: Question 1: I have a personal car that I will be bringing in from the US. That car was being sold by the dealer at X USD but he offered me a discounted price of X-5000 if I gave them my old car. So now when I am filling up the goods to carry form, what price (in CAD) do I mention? Question 2: I have some personal gold jewelry that was gifted to me by parents and family at the time of marriage. When filling up information for it, I dont think I have the price of it from 14 years ago. Shall I put in the price as per current gold price? Question 3: In general, I am putting in price of all my personal electronics as per current market price of same new product. I just dont remember the prices at which I bought these as these are in use products bought over years. Some of the product models dont even come any more so I am putting what price I can track from google. Am I doing it right? Thanks

Use black book value for vehicle. Get your jewelry assessed. Laptop, cell phone, etc are very likely exempt.

-Automobiles are completely separate issues and a book can probably be written on that. I don't know much about it.

-Getting expensive stuff like jewellry assessed is probably a good idea - will usually be useful for insurance anyway. If it's personal items, there should not be duty. If it's not particularly valuable, best guess probably ok.

-Prices you put in for most other things - honestly just use your best guess, I used what I thought replacement value will be. Since most such things are exempt if personal, it really does not matter that much; I did not see CBSA showing much interest for any common household items / electronics. Keep in mind the amounts you put on forms MIGHT also be the insured amount by the mover/carrier.

So basically it sounds to me like you're doing it right (leaving aside the car on which I have no comment).
