Hi All,

We moved to NY state from Vancouver last Christmas. However, we kept our apartment in Vancouver as we weren't able to sell it. It has now sold so we are back in Canada packing up and preparing to ship all the stuff we left here to our home in NY (we have been here about 3 months as my wife doesn't work and I can telecommute to my job).

We are confused about the 3299 customs form though - we are technically returning residents who have been out of the country for 3 months, but everything we are shipping has been in Canada for several years. Will this be a problem on the customs form? It looks odd that we checked "Returning Resident - 3 months abroad in Canada", then further down the form checked "Foreign/household effects aquired abroad and used more than 1 year".

Bit of an odd situation - anyone have any advice? :help:
