Your nose knows? Dogs are good at sniffing.

Well, any puppy can walk in and out between US and Canada. A puppy follows ****. In the end, all a dog does is to either bark or wave his tail...and ****. Which one do you usually do?

Chances are, you might be taxed heavily 'cause you either smell or look like a dog. Canada doesn't welcome the type of dog like you. And yes, the immigration officer doesn't have a heart on a dog like you.

Carson, you're different from Nelson because you might have a better heart...concerned about someone like me. Since you said any amount more than $10,000 would not be taxed; then you basically answered my question. And that confirmed that my posting was tax related. I have no problem with IRS or ...

I was told that the limit of $10,000 is applied to tourists and temporary visitors. For someone like me who's issued an immigrant visa and would live in Canada permanently, this does not apply. I think you guys failed to clarify this. I was just concerned when the limit of $10,000 was brought up ...

Are you saying that if we bring a total of $20,000 USD for two persons, this amount exceeds the allowed currency in Canada? So, are you suggesting that we bring only ...

Thanks for the advice. You guys are so nice. But let me be frank with you...my wife and I have overstayed in the US and are currently out of status. I think we have a 10 year bar from re-entering the US.
What would happen to our $100,000 deposit in the US bank earned from the sale of our home ...

Thanks guys. Here's the scenario: My wife and I are about to land in Canada from the US. We have sold our house and would be bringing $100,000 USD. We don't have any banking history in Canada and have no account since we have never been there. Our US bank is Wells Fargo. Questions: 1. Since we don't ...

My wife and I would soon be landing in Canada. One of the things we need to do is to open a bank account. May I have your kind advice if it's better to have a joint account or separate? Even though this thread is about tax, I hope financial questions like mine is relevant.
Thanks !
