I am on h4 spouse visa in USA and my wife is on h1b visa. We have received our COPr with one time immigration visit visa to Canada with destination as Vancouver.
I had a job offer from Montreal , before our pr got approved and the company received my work permit too around the same time. I need to start working there in two weeks.
Couple of questions on that:
1. Can I complete my immigration landing in Vancouver and go and work in Montreal while I'm waiting for my pr card.
2. If pt 1 is not possible, should I get my work visa too , so that while I'm waiting for my pr card , I can start working in Montreal.
3. If I have to do pt 2, I don't know if it's possible to have a landing immigration visit visa and a work visa in my passport.

Any guidance on this will be helpful. Thank you
