Landing requirements
Hi there
It's been a while but here's my update...
I've been living in Canada since July after getting married. I emailed cic last week for an update on my visa application and they said that they may issue is next week as my medical runs out on dec 1. We have booked our flights and aim to back in Canada on 29 nov. I just wanted to ask, what do I need to land in Canada? My paperwork is all here with me so I just want to make sure I take the right stuff with me.
Thanks for your help

If in doubt, check the Wiki.......http://britishexpats.com/wiki/Landing_as_PR-Canada
Also, I just wanted to check, but you say you've been living in Canada since July? But then talk about flights? If you're already in Canada, then you shouldn't need to get a flight anywhere. You can either go to the nearest border to activate your PR, or do it at a CIC office.
HTH.

Thanks!
The visa is being sent to my parents address in England as that's where I was living when we started the process. The visas being sent there so I need to get it then land in Canada.

What a palaver! Why not just change your address with CIC, so it's sent directly to you? Save you a fortune on flights, as well as being a lot simpler too...........

Re: Landing requirements
I would just like to know what documents (if any) I need to show when I land in Canada. Thanks.
