Hi,
I am planning to move from Chicago to Toronto via rented car.I am a Canadian Landed immigrant working in USA for last two years and now moving back to Canada
I have couple of question regarding carrying US doller from USA to Canada via road
Q1: Is there any limit that I can carry with me.I know at POE I need to declare to Canadian Custom if I am carrying more than CDN$10,000 but do I need to give proof of my income or could there be any other issue?
Q2:At POE do I need to declare to US custom also if I carry more than US$10000 with me?Do I need to show US custom officials my proof of income?Do I need to pay any duty?
Q3:What should be the best way to carry doller?Traveller Check or Cashier Check??
Q4: POE officer phone number at Ambassader Bridge(Detroit & Windsor)
Initially I thought of transfering money via wire transfer from my US bank account to Canadain Bank account but as I don't have US doller account in my Canadian bank account I can't keep my money in US doller in my Canadian bank (I only came to know about this rule couple of days back).As exchange rate is now pretty low I don't want to convert USD into CDN$ right now so ruling out wire transfer option
Will appreciate your feedback
