Does anyone know how much time I get to bring over my goods once I've land and gotten my goods to follow list stamped? Is there an expiration date to the list?
Also, my spouse and I are landing separately; can each of us have our own goods to follow list? or can only the primary applicant have a goods to follow list?
your help is much appreciated!! thank you!!
you can have one list. You can ask the custom officer these questions. But as far as I know the list is stamped with the primary immigrant. If you talk to them they are very helpful. I think you get 1 yr to bring in the goods.
One thing that is important is the Jewlry : please take photographs of each pc . get it valued there. then when you come in,get those photos stamped buy cutoms. that way when you take it back for a weding or somthing you wont have a problem bringing it back into canada. this is somthing the customs officer specifically told us. we had taken photos but they were not valued . its very expensive to get it valued in the states . From India you will find it easier. we added all the amount to the assets we were bringing into the country. I think it helps when you give this list during the time of application too.
thanks Janmeja
when you say make sure you 'get it valued there' - where is there? at customs? Can't i just take photos of each and value each piece myself and present that to customs for stamping?
thanks

We just brought photo's without any valuation. This was in 1995. Since then I've heard poeple say you should get it valued too along with the photo's. The valuation should be done in the country of origin by any authorised valuer.

get reciepts and valution done by a jewller in India, that would be cheapest. it will come in handy when you take it back for a wedding

ONCE AGAIN WRONG.
There is no expiry date for goods to follow list.
