Hello,
I'm a Canadian citizen living abroad for a number of years, and will be moving to Canada in a couple weeks with my husband (family class PR) and our two kids. We'll be shipping a few boxes of personal effects, and I'm wondering if we should fill in a single BSF186 (personal effects accounting document) for the entire shipment, or should my husband and I fill in separate forms based on his belongings and mine? In the latter case, our kids' belongings should go on my form or his?
Thanks in advance.
Just going to reply to my own question in case it could help someone else in the future!
I called CBSA and the agent said it's totally up to us whether to fill in separate forms or a single form for the entire family. He said it doesn't matter that we're entering under different circumstances (me as a returning citizen and my husband as a new permanent resident).
Since I've been residing in Canada, when I go to help my wife move, she gets to bring her household goods but I'll personally be limited to the regular $800/48hr rule.
Hi...Iand my husband have received PR for Canada through express entry and are moving to Vancouver on 13th March. Please someone clear my doubt whether we need to take a personal effects accounting document list with us of all the goods that we are carrying in the luggage.? We are not getting any goods shipped later after our arrival.
