Customs declaration

[demiurgician 0]

Hi everyone!

My English fiance is flying in tomorrow (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) and I'm beyond excited, as you may have guessed :-)

He wanted me to check with y'all about the customs declaration that he will fill out on the plane. Although we've both taken this flight (Manchester to Chicago) multiple times, we've never really paid any attention to it before in terms of how it would be different when he was coming permanently. He doesn't have any fancy equipment or a lot of cash or anything along those lines, and I want to say that he will pretty much be able to say that he doesn't have anything to declare. He's a bit concerned though because, despite the fact that it's nothing brand new or terribly expensive, he will have what amounts to everything he owns with him, and all told it is worth *something*.

So what do you think? When you/your fiance(e) came over for good (!!) how did you fill out the customs form?

As a sidenote, did anyone here fly into O'Hare on the K-1? What was it like? I've read a few reviews, but nothing recent.

Only 22 hours and 30 minutes to go!

Obviously if it is old stuff then it is nothing to declare, when I first came over that is what I put, not because it was worth nothing but because nothing was new if you get what I mean? You are allowed money wise $9,999 nothing over that otherwise you will have to declare it. (me thinks you will be fine on that too). POE is nothing to worry about he will be in and out in no time. Best wishes to you both.

when my husband came through he didn't declare anything so I think it's safe to say that your fiance won't have to either

First off, congrats! You must be so happy - its such a great feeling!

I didn't put anything to declare cause nothing was new, just my ol' belongings!
