LANDING IN CANADA ??? -All You Need To Know.

[Newbie2016]

Hi everyone

Can anyone let me know if bank statements are still considered as sufficient proof of funds on landing?

1. You don't need a return ticket, not unless u have all the money in the world to waste, you are in possession of an immigrant visa not a visiting visa. In my case I just bought one way ticket. You will hardly be refused entry if travelling with family and all your documents are genuine.

2. The visas are enough for your travel
a. Yes
b. What's a CORP?
c.Yes
d.Yes
e. I don't know if there is a form as for me and my family we didn't carry any, we were not asked for any list. All we did was put a label on all our foodstuffs ( no meat or diary products) which was nearly and tightly packed in zip loc bags.

Dear All,

Need your urgent guidance.

I'll be landing in Toronto with my family during June first week. Just wanted to know a couple of things from you.

1. I am planning to book with Etihad Airways. My question is, does the airlines ask you to show a return ticket as well when you are traveling on a "Immigration Visa" (the one we got stamped in our passports.) Somebody was telling me that I have to present a return ticket before boarding the flight because the airlines think that in case I am denied entry in Canada then the airlines has to bear the cost of my return. So they insist on a return ticket as well.

Did anyone faced a similar situation during boarding or after landing.

I will not be doing a short landing, but will stay there. No plans of returning. So in this case, are the "Immigrantion Visas" that we have on our passports, enough or do I need to book a return ticket also just to show the airlines guys, which can be cancelled after reaching Canada.

2. Second thing is, the visas that we have got and the CORP are enough for our travel or do we need to get these Visas authenticated or stamped or anything else that probably is needed before travel. Also as per the documents I guess we need to carry the following:

a. Visas/on Passports
b. CORP
c. Children Immunization Chart
d. Proff of fund (In cash and Traveller's check)
e. List of accompanying goods ( Is there any form for this? If yes then where do I get this form from or this list can just be a hand written one?)

Will be grateful if you could assist me on these two queries.

Thanks in advance and regards,

Saibal Banerjee

b. What's a CORP?

He probably meant COPR (Confirmation of Permanent Residence)

I am a PNP applicant and POE will be Toronto. Is 3.20 Hours enough transit time to complete landing formalities and catch another flight??

You DO NOT need a return ticket.

You do not have to do anything with them. They will be checked and processed at the port of entry at Canada.

Also as per the documents I guess we need to carry the following:

a. Visas/on Passports
b. CORP
c. Children Immunization Chart
d. Proff of fund (In cash and Traveller's check)
e. List of accompanying goods ( Is there any form for this? If yes then where do I get this form from or this list can just be a hand written one?)

Yes, carry the above with you. In regards to 'List of accompanying goods... no one really bother to check how many pair of pants you are carrying The immigration officer told me that 'they don't care what things I carry during my first entry'

Will be grateful if you could assist me on these two queries.

Thanks in advance and regards,

I need an authentic info :

FSW outland but I want to land Canada via USA. Maybe after my pleasure visit to USA , I will fly or drive through. Is that OK? Or is it like Canada might say why you did not enter my country directly from your country. Please help.

Thanks in adv.

At the port of entry, the officer is more keen on knowing that you have funds (in hand) to sustain livelihood for next couple of months. So don't completely rely on the stocks documents. You need to have some real money in your pocket to prove the funds.

At the application stage it was fine as you were not going to immediately use it but while landing 'the time has come' when you use your funds!

 

[lilbro]

True! i totally agree with you. time to liquidate your stocks and turn it into dollars ;D

Many thanks for your response!

If you read my statement, i had mentioned that Stocks would be one of the Proof of Funds.

i will enter alone for which i need to show CAD12,000. i will carry about CAD10,000 in Cash Equivalents.

And to mend the gap i was wondering if i could carry the latest statement of my Stock Sheet.

Please answer if you know something about this.
