Mailing/Moving Personal Items on Tourist Visa

[Rachel F 25]

Hi everyone! I can’t seem to find any info on the topic, but basically I came down from Canada to visit my fiancé on a B2 visa in June. We got to talking and decided to go ahead with the marriage to AOS route. Since we didn’t have the intention of doing this and we’re originally going for the K1 visa - I’m trying to figure out how to have some of my stuff mailed to me from my mom. So a couple of things:

 

1) Do I need to fill out any sort of paperwork? I saw a form for unaccompanied personal goods but I don’t know how we would fill this out since I didn’t enter under a K1, etc.

 

2) Is there a cheap option for Canadians to ship items? It is just some clothing and shoes. We plan to go back for the rest after the AP is approved.

 

3) Since it is just clothes do I even need to fill out the customs form or can I just ship it like a regular package through Canada post/USPS?

 

I appreciated any sort of guidance!!!

Since this is a Canada specific question you might want to post in the Canada forums instead of the tourist visa section.

Not sure how to do that! Or do I just repost the same thing there?

You will have to wait to have items sent to you. Atm you do not have status in the US to allow those items to move on over. Once you do, you will fill out the forms with a copy of your (maybe the NOA 1, you will want to check what they will require) to send in with your filled out paperwork. Since you will not be with your items there are forms to fill out. Others will have better knowledge of those forms. As I traveled with my items.
