Goods and goods to follow
 
So I’m coming tomorrow!! To land but I’m only coming for a week so just have hand luggage with me. As said before in posts I’m only bringing suitcases with my things so this might seem like a silly question but do I need to list everything? Or just put clothes? Also does it have to be monetary value? I have presents for Christmas so will they be listed? Also I have no idea what I’m bringing yet as I don’t intend to come properly until January.
how can I get around this?

thanks Lucy

I'll tell you what I did and was told to do,

List everything / everything you are bringing and or to follow.

so general item like Clothes (not socks shoes etc)

when I landed I landed at pearson, with my list and didn't divide it between what I had and what I had to come, I went through one line
and the guy was like ok, then another, and he wanted to confirm the list I had with my baggage, so I said I couldn;t as I had stuff coming
but feel free to look through my suitcases LOL he declined

but I would (looking back) make a full list, then dvide into too come and in luggage now
and pack only what you have on the list

I guess it depends who you catch, but yes I did what your saying your going to do, the armed TSA/police looking guys where fantastic
the numpty standing at one of the desks who quizzed me, well... he was a numpty lol :)
