How long to get through immigration upon PR arrival?

[mikeandlana]

Can anyone shed some light on how long it will take for my wife to clear immigration and customs at Pearson?
Are there any questions posed at this process or do they just check the passport?
Thanks
Mike

It differs from person to person. But it can be as easy as entering with everyone else, getting the papers stamping and going thru. Maybe 15 min or It can take much longer, if she is sent to the office and made to stand in line (usually a very short line, depending on the time of day she is arriving). Either way, as soon as she hits the area of Immigration officers, it wont take more than 50 min until she is out or someone is calling you to join her in that area and answer questions. Nerve racking, I KNOW!
