Can anybody help me with this. Actually I done with my landing procedure , still waiting for my PR card. And I am planning to visit US next month by car and come back to canada. So will I be needing any travel document for this or COPR and passport would be suffice for reentering canada?
You have to re-enter Canada with your PR Card and not your COPR please.

It does not matter if you close your account because bank draft will not be with reference to your account. Once bank muscat will receive the payment from you for the bank draft it means bank muscat is liable to pay the money.
I deposited in TD bank and it took 45 calendar day to cash being available in my account. So make sure you carry sufficient cash to cover those 45 days
Alright. Thanks for the clarification.

Hello everyone,

In proof of funds there are some funds I wont be able to carry along. Can we show the bank statement at POE as funds to follow. Will it be taxed when brought in later?

Several people have already done so, quite recently.

Suggest you read back through this thread & also look at settlement & housing boards here, as well as settlement.org.

I am planning to travel to canada during Jan 2016, and want to return after 2 days.
I came to know in the forum that, we can return in the next flight and there are no issues.
But I also, learnt from this forum that, IM officer will ask, how days you intend to stay,
so should i say 2 days or should i say i will be returning back by 4-5 weeks or should i say, i will
continue to stay on for ever...

Thanks
Rajanat

Hi,

how can we respond to photos rejection letter and send new photos although the one is outside Canada?
After landing, they didn't dispatch PR card but they asked to submit photos again by mail and the person is outside canada. So, what should be done in this case?

thanks.

Send the photo to someone in Canada and then the person will send on
your behalf to them.
Good luck

By the grace of almighty, landed in Pearson Airport Toronto today and completed PR formalities.

It was a smooth entry, immigration and customs officers were helpful, they were actually happy to see I was prepared with necessary docs/forms. This preparation also helped me to save significant time while my family was waiting!

So my suggestion to all complete the B4 form, not necessarily details in the form itself, complete in a excel spreadsheet with a summary value, put same value in the form. That will fulfill the purpose. But you need to take jewellery photos, all documents/photo should be 2 copies, one customs keeps for their records, the other set they will return stamped.

That's it!!!

Best wishes for your journey to Canada ;D

Friends,

I am bit confused about b4 form, many posts suggest I need to take two print outs for goods accompanying and goods to follow. How do I differentiate that in b4 form?

Goods to follow means things I will bring later or things that will come in shipment in the current trip?

And do I need to fill b4a form too?

Customs forms B4, excel spreadsheets, jewellery/valuable goods photos - whatever you submit to Customs should have 2 copies, one for you, one for them.
