You question is not clear.
Canadian Customs don't fill any form for you ( or any person landing)
There is no problem at all if you exceed the limit of declared POF, carried with you while landing.
As per Canadian law, you should declare any amount exceeding $10,000/- for each person while landing.
Question:
What is the benefit of not declaring, if you have excess amount than $10,000/= with you?. Why you should think about a violation of the Canadian law, at the first day of landing itself?. Any how such violation can reach up to a level of confiscation of excess money, if detected or caught by CBSA.

Dear All,

Me and my family are planning to be in Toronto within the next 2 months and thus at this stage, it's very important for us to know from you as to:

Q). How did you managed your Cargo / Luggage when you travelled/landed for the first time in Canada.

Specially for the people who travelled from Middle East, did you guys booked any cargo as well, apart from your luggage. If yes, then what's your advice on that.
Would you like to refer any good Cargo movers to us. Newspaper are filled with these adverts, but you don't wanna risk your life belongings with some newbie in the market. So pls do let me know if you know of someone credible as movers.

Thanks in advance and kind regards,
New Comer to Canada

I shipped my furniture and other personal belongings from Hong Kong to Vancouver BC last year. In less than 2 months, from first contact with the relocation company the goods safely arrived in my new home, it was a hassle-less and wonderful experience. It was a door to door.

Before the goods arrived in my new home, I had to visit the local customs office in Vancouver couple of times. First to submit and stamping of the B4 and second time was for customs clearance of the arriving shipments. After clearance, I can make arrangement with the agent to have the shipment delivered to my new home.

I don't have any suggested companies for you (because mine doesn't office in middle east), but I do recommend to avoid using these relocation companies - Executive Mover and Royal Moving and Storage. Reasons as follows:

Whichever companies that you would use in the future, you should double check with the insurance company to ensure you have the necessary documents to be compensated if some of your shipped belongings had been lost/stolen. Good luck!
