Moving to Montreal..Summer

[Steph0814 1]

Hi Canadians,

I have my 10 YR GC and am planning to file for USC within the next few months when its time. However we are planning on spending the summer in Montreal, so i rented a short term apartment and Voila. All good on my end..on to my Husband:

We are planning on driving up there with the SUV and a trailer with Furniture (as we have a ton of extra which is not needed here due to moving to a smaller house).

Will there be an issue going through the Canadian Border with my husband and a truckload of furniture? We have not filed anything on his behalf (we may once i am a USC still undecided). He has plenty keeping him here, 2 mortgages, 2 cars, a company that he owns/runs plus we are leaving our 2 dogs here as well.

I am not sure where to ask this question so figured the Canadian Off Topic would be the best place to start.

Any and all opinions and/or advice is greatly appreciated.

Merci

Stephanie

Well, obviously the border patrol person might think it looks suspicious, since you guys are bringing furniture. It is really up to the person to decide. He/she could be in a great mood that day and think nothing of it, or he/she might deny him entry. You just have to be prepared for the eventuality that it might happen. If he can, have him bring a letter from his boss saying when he is expected back at work, make sure you bring everything else that can pass as proof of ties - with copies. If you have anything that can show ties for you too I would bring that as well... You don't want it to look like you guys are moving permanently.

Hope this helps, good luck!
