Hi all,
Can someone please give me the right information? I will be moving along with my husband to Canada in September. He has a visit visa and I have my student visa. My questions are as follows:
- should we get his work permit and spousal visa before entering Canada or would it be better to get it done from there?
- since we are planning to move our furniture too. I wonder if there’s a rule that doesn’t allow you to take your furniture if you have no PR. Is that true.
Please help. I have posted before but no one replied. I would be really thankful.

There will be some concerns about your husband if there is any indication that he is moving. He is a visitor so he is only allowed to bring stuff a temporary visitor would bring. If he is planning on moving to Canada yes you should apply for a work permit for him. If he isn’t moving make sure to travel with information about his US lease and job.

Hi!

Which forms did you use for declaring the goods on a work permit?
Can I use form B4 for "goods to follow" on work permit? If yes, do I choose the "settler" option?

Thanks.
