I have done some searching on here, but do you get guidance of what you will need to have with you when you return at the border crossing to activate your visa?
Any help would be welcomed

Hi Kae,
I don't think Abbotsford handles international flights only WestJet domestic and a few tour operators (that maybe head South in winter and give the airport it's "International" status ), so I don't think you can land there (immigration wise...).
Even if you have a connecting flight to Abbotsford, you have to do the immigration stuff wherever you land first, for example Calgary or Vancouver.

Edit: Just realised you were talking about the border crossing, sorry! Don't I feel daft

Look at the bright side. If you go to the Sumas crossing, and find you have forgotten something, you can always ask them to hang on while you nip home to pick it up.
