1 COPR (IMM 5292B) : Theses are the form you got with PPs. confirmation of permanent residence forms
2. POF. What is POF???? : Proof of funds, cash or DD you have to take with you at the time of landing it depends on your number of family members, normally $ 10,000/person you can check it on cic website for updated one
3. PR Card Application (IMM 5444E). -carry it filled pre-printed, for ease. Where i will get this form and i have to fill it before flight??? No need to fill it, would be done by POE officer
4. Goods to Follow List (Form B4 / B4A). -carry it filled pre-printed, for ease. I am not carrying anything with myself because going for a day.so do I need it???: Yes you need goods to follow list bc when u land again these items would be free of duty otherwise you have to pay tax on the items you would import later., yes pre printed two copies each i think.

Dear Captain please correct me if wrong.
5. Goods Accompanying List. -as above, a table of things u r carrying on person (value & Totaled). Not clear???

Unless asked, you don't need to explain the reason why you need to return to UAE. They will know sooner or later that you would depart Canada because they have the airlines manifest.

1) COPR = Confirmation of Permanent Resident = PR visa; one of the document that you need to proceed the landing formality in order to get the PR card
2) POF = Proof of Fund; You need to bring a certain amount of money in the form of DD and equivalent to prove to immigrant officers that you are financially capable of supporting yourself and your family for a certain period. Read this older discussion for details:
http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/landing-next-month-and-country-of-origin-has-restriction-on-foreign-currency-t130689.0.html;msg1993880#msg1993880

3) The immigration officer will complete that
4) No, bring it again when you intend to settling Canada for at least a year period
5) Same as Goods follow list
6) You can get the SIN application form from Service Canada office across Canada.

This is incorrect. CIC has set minimum POF amount which are updated every year:

1) What does it matter if they know or not? It doesn't matter! Once you arrive, you can depart Canada the same day if you want. :)
2) It's up to you
3) Yes, that amount is ok
4) Type or handwrite in the B4E form. If you need more space, attach the item list in plain paper

Hi folks,

I received passport request via email however the only requirement for me to do is only to send passport and prepaid courier and no request for COPR and new photo ID. Do I need to send ID and COPR though not requested? or is there new rule that ID or COPR at not needed anymore?

Thank you in advance.

1) True. But you don't need the PR card if you have a visa exempted passport. Or if you enter Canada via non commercial vehicle, you don't need the PR card anyways.
2) In the CBSA website: http://www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/publications/forms-formulaires/b4-eng.pdf

COPR is generated by CIC. It'd automatically come in the returning package with ur stamped pps.

While en-route to Canada, we've to change the plane at London Heathrow to board our final flight to Canada.

We were told last night by a well wisher that even to change the plane at London Heathrow, one needs a transit visa which came as a rude shock and something hard to believe as it's only a short transit of hrs.

We're flying in next 2-3 days and there is no way we can get this transit visa if at all it's really required.

Pls confirm asap.
