Hello!

Sa mga nag land na, how many hours did it take you to finish immigration and customs? Travelling on a weekday with a 3hour layover in Vancouver.
TIA. Praying for the everyone's speedy application process! <3
Hi Bbvv!

I'm already here in Canada last month. I took 1.5 hours only to process everything in Vancouver Immigration. I had 3 hour-layover in Vancouver.
Tips: Make sure you go first to the line. Ginawa ko eh naglakad ako ng mabilis para mauna sa linya at medyo mahaba lakaran sa vancouver airport.
God speed!

Thanks my dear, synyx! Did you get your baggage or after the immigration na lang? Marjorlie arrive yesterday, Sunday ph time flight niya and PAL was delayed by an hour, took her 1.5 hours also for the immigration process (so 2.5 na) remaining excess time was her running from customs to the westjet gate which was very very far as per her.

I hope travelling on a weekday gives me at least a little extra.

I got a 1 hour delay also in PAL MLA but I landed in time in Vancouver Airport. Yup, get your baggages first before going in to Vancouver Immigration para hindi mawala. Get your baggages after the first interview by a CBSA officer. Mahabang pila iyon. After you get your baggage, go to Immigration for New Immigrants then exit ka na. Wag mo iwala yong form (declaration) na ibibgay sa plane ta kailangan iyon sa exit. Then check in for your connecting flight. Mahabang lakaran na naman iyon. as in mahaba.

at what stage po pinipirmahan yung COPR....before getting the baggage or after?....kasi kung may items na nadisallow, could it affect the confirmation?....pwede kasi nila sabihin na di marunong sumunod sa rules at nagdala pa ng bawal, e pabalikin ka on the same plane. Eto kasing mga padala kung bakit ipinipilit nila....ayaw ko nga sana magdala ng kahit anong pagkain....,

as far as I know, 2 lang mangyyari kpag nagdala ka ng mga hindi pwede na food at hindi mo dineclare.. first, pwede nila kunin ung food at itapon nila at bibigyan ka nila ng warning.. or 2nd, kukunin nila ung food, at magffine ka ng fees..

mostly email, check your spam folder too. It also depends on the visa officer.
