Hello Everyone, I have a question.
I got my pr in Montreal under QSW category and I have my CSQ. My wife has got her approval of pr under spousal category and her province of destination is surrey, BC. I was in surrey when I applied for her case but now I have moved back to Montreal. She has a flight booked already destined to Montreal. So would there be any problem for her if she lands in Montreal or she has to arrive at other ports but quebec? Would she require CSQ to present to the immigration or cbs officer? If not would she be asked to apply for CSQ at the same time or would she be given some timeframe to apply and allowed to enter into canada? If none works what are the other options and to be on safe side what is the best option? What would happen in worst case if she lands in Montreal?

I have my relatives in Toronto. Should I anyhow book a connecting flight to Toronto to prove as a final destination?

Please Suggest..!!!

Hi

You should have updated IRCC when you moved to Quebec. They would have then requested that you apply for your wife's CSQ.

There is a definite possibility that she will be refused landing in Quebec.

Thanks for ur reply.

Even if she provides toronto address and proof of onward travel to toronto she will be denied?

Coz I intend to move to toronto in couple of months and I wanted to stay here temporarily so I didnt update my address.

Even then if she is denied will she be sent back? Couldn't she be asked to apply for csq on the spot?

If she provides proof of onward travel to Toronto, she should be fine. Note that lying to CBSA is a crime; if she is actually intending to reside in Quebec for now, she should not lie by showing she is going to Toronto.

She would be allowed entry as a visitor, not sent back. A CSQ cannot be applied for at a POE.

I thank you for the prompt response.

No in fact thats not just for the matter of showing. We actually have the intent of moving to Brampton coz our relatives live there and I want to start my new work there. So would anytime soon will move out of Quebec like in 2 months from now.
