Help! deceased parents and shipping items
Hi
Wonder if anyone out there can help? My husbands parents both passed away earlier this year (worst year ever). His siblings have gone through the house and there are some items, books, ornaments, games etc that my husband would like to have shipped over to us here in Calgary. Are we able to just have my sister-in-law pack them in her suitcase next time she comes out or is it more complicated than that? Thanks in advance KAT |
Re: Help! deceased parents and shipping items
Can your SIL bring them? Yes. Will it cause a problem, probably not, but that depends on the value.
If the things are low cash value and mostly have sentimental value then having her bring them probably makes most sense, but if the books include an original "De revolutionibus orbium coelestium", and the ornaments include a Ming vase, then things will be more complicated, and expensive. |

If you want to read the legal process then read this memo
Memorandum D2-1-5 - Bequests - Tariff Item no. 9806.00.00 However they can be brought in by someone else and declared and if minimal value and used then there should be no problem. |

Thankyou for the replies. I had it straight in my head but wanted to be sure my SIL didn't get interrogated at customs when she comes.
We're talking about books that my husbands parents used to read to him, a candle holder, an ornament etc those kinds of things that have no actual value, only sentimental. Thanks |
