need help,I already landed,but didn't present the B4

[Heroine]

I landed on nov 18,2014,the officer didn't ask for my B4 form and I actually didn't prepare the form too.after landing my shipping agent told me that I should show the border officer the B4 form,What should I do now?

One more question, my shipping agent said They won't ship my belongings till They have my Pr card copy,saying my signed copr is not enough to prove my identity, is that so?


Thanks

1) Go to the nearest CBSA office for B4 stamping. If Vancouver, the office is on Dunsmuir St.
2) I'm not sure. My shipping agent didn't ask for my Canadian passport. Probably up to shipping company.

Thanks for ur reply,but I won't go yo clear custom since my agent will do it for me in Vancouver but I m actually in Calgary, do I still need it?

ask if your passport AND copr will work. if it's good enough for the government of canada to allow entry and sign up for services, it should be good enough for the shipping company. the pr card is not necessary to get a SIN#, sign up for healthcare, etc. if they continue to refuse, i would remind them of these facts.

technically they are right, the COPR ALONE does not prove identity. however, the COPR + passport *should* be enough to do so.

Yes, you will still need to get the B4 stamping if you want to avoid paying duty before your shipped goods arrive in Vancouver.

Either your shipping company is inexperience or B4 is not their concern!
