Hello,

We got Express Entry - PR of Canada. I am travelling to Canada in January.
We are landing at Toronto.
I want to bring some cash amount as once we land we need to purchase some house holds. So I thought better to carry some cash amount that we initially require.
One of my cousin live in Saskatchewan, Canada. He is coming to India in next month.
What if he will bring CAD that I require and I pay him here in INR.
So my QUESTION IS :

Should I need to show any purchase receipt or any type of receipt for cash I am bringing to Canada?

Please guide me through this.

Thank you in advance....

Assuming if cash is just for household goods is not going to be over 10k Cad but worth anyway checking the rules for how much cash can take into India just in case without declaring.

Yes except this cash I need to carry 16000 CAD as proof of fund. But that I think I will carry as forex card. Then is there any issue??
