Nope I didn't take photos of my jewelries. But I do have my certification and receipts for most of the items.
I landed in Vancouver as my port of entry. The immigration officer only asked if I brought food with me like
chicharon and dried fish or any other meat products. When my husband landed as an immigrant, he asked
the immigration officer who interviewed him about the B4 form. The officer said that they don't really usually
ask for it because if it's for personal effects only and unless you really have any other items to follow or things
for commercial use, you're okay. Maybe it really depends also on the officer. My luggage weren't inspected, and I
brought in two balikbayan boxes in bags.
