Would like to know if anyone knows if there is any rule regarding length of ownership of the Car in the US before it is imported to Ontario.

I heard from one of my friend that we need to own the car for at least 6 months in the US before it can be imported to Ontario.

Have read the links in this forum but did not find this particular requirement stated anywhere.

Can anyone please she some light on this?

The 6 month rule applies to all items and not just car specifically.

No, each PR card is mailed individually and processing time starts from the day each member lands.

Not sure if it is necessary, but obtain it as schools may ask to see where/which grades they were in.
Yes obtain a school leaving certificate, etc. Try to ensure it is issued in English/French.

Have their latest report cards, etc as well.....and immunization records are a must for young children. [under 18]

If it's in Arabic get it translated.....

Hi friend,
Can you please clarify whether immunization records required for children under 18 or under 16.
In another thread I read under 16.Which is correct.
My son turned 16 in 2013August.I got the landing papers in Nov 2013.No immunization forms where provided in the landing papers.Does this mean that is required only for children under 16 years?

Check CBSA site

Ownership, possession and use requirements

To import goods duty- and tax-free, Settlers must have owned, possessed and used the goods prior to their arrival in Canada and FORMER RESIDENTS must have owned, possessed and used the goods for at least six months before returning to resume residence.

For settlers moving in as PR for the first time there is NO 6 months ownership
Requirement.
YOU MUST OWN, POSSESSED & USED BEFORE YOU MOVE IN

It is a valid question. In Canada, it is a criminal offense under Section 293 of the Canadian Criminal Code to have more then 1 wife.

http://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/acts/C-46/page-150.html#docCont

The maximum punishment carried for this offence is 5 years in prison. Though no one has been prosecuted in Canada for this offence for the past 60 years, there is a known case of women in British Columbia who was denied permanent residence and ask to leave country after 10 years in Canada for being in a polygamous relationship.

As for your question on who to inform, the answer is no one, as your case will be denied. Choose 1 wife you want to immigrate with, as this is what all the other people who have immigrated have done.

Sorry if this is not the answer you were expecting.

I think if a person enters a country which allows polygamy (using a non-Canadian passport) and lives there, the person would allow to have more than one wife.

I will be doing my landing this month. This is going to be a short trip, only for 4-5 days. I would comeback later with my family for moving permanently.

Is it mandatory to have a GTF list even though this is such a short trip? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
