Hi Guys... when i was still waiting for my visa...i always ask people here on what to expect once you have your visa and aalis ka na ng Pinas... just want to share my experience here
So i left March 24 via Cathay Pacific... here in Manila the immigration is just particular with the CFO sticker...actually check-in pa lang sa airline once they see na sa visa mo is IMMIGRANT they will check for the sticker right away...
Im bound for Toronto so when i arrived at the airport make sure you already filled up the Customs form.. coz as soon as you land may airport officers na magchecheck ng passport mo and the customs form...then you have to go through 2 immigration officers; first is where everyone has to go through..they will check your customs paper and will ask question depending on you answer like for me i checked yes on did you bring nuts,dairy,seafood etc ... coz i brought pili nut candies danggit shrimp paste polvoron etc... so i was just asked if i brought meat products i just answered no just candies and dried fish..
then i was asked how much money did i bring...i didnt bring cash so i told the officer just creditcards (which is true btw)
then theyll asked if you have your papers with you (the CoPr) i answered yes.. then the officer will ask you to have it ready for the next immigration officer... so once youre done
before you reach the baggage section an airport officer will lead you to the next immigration officer which will process your PR docu
in that room you will see people who are PR visa holders, and others who i thinks didnt pass the first immigration officer( like if the 1st officer had doubts they will send you here)
wait for your turn...the visa officer will ask for your CoPR and passport then u will be asked to wait while they process it for 5-10 mins
once your names is called make sure youre ready with your address in Canada...the officer will ask you to write the address on one of the CopR...and for your signatures...
and thats it! get your baggage and viola! Welcome to Canada!!
