Landing / Goods to Follow Experience
My Husband landed on February 8, 2004 and we recieved his PR card last week so we did a quick trip to Kentucky to pick up the rest of his belonings on the weekend per our Goods to Follow list.
We got to the Detroit Windsor border and there was no line. The officer at the booth just checked our passports and my husband's PR card then sent us on through. They did not ask us to pull over for inspection, or even look at our Goods to Follow list, let alone what we had in the truck. It was insanely simple
cheers

Re: Landing / Goods to Follow Experience
Thanks. I wondered how that worked. I hope mine goes as well.
