If you are outside Canada When you arrive in Canada, you will be greeted by an officer from the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA).
The officer will ask to see your passport and other travel documents. Make sure they are not packed in your luggage, and that you have them with you. This will help speed up your entry to Canada.
When you arrive, you must have:
Your valid passport and/or travel documents. Your passport must be a regular, private passport. You cannot immigrate to Canada with a diplomatic, government service or public affairs passport. Your valid permanent resident visa (if you are from a country that requires visas) and your Confirmation of Permanent Residence (COPR). The officer will make sure you are entering Canada before or on the expiry date shown on your visa. Please note that this document cannot be extended; therefore, you should make sure to use it before it expires. Proof that you have the funds to support yourself and your family after you arrive in Canada. The officer will ask you a few questions to make sure you still meet the terms to immigrate to Canada. They will be similar to the ones you answered when you applied.
You will not be allowed into Canada if you give false or incomplete information. After completing your COPR, the officer will allow you to enter Canada as a permanent resident. The officer will also confirm your Canadian mailing address. Your permanent resident card will be mailed to you at this address.
If you change your address within 180 days of arriving in Canada, you must notify IRCC using this online tool.
Disclosure of funds If you arrive in Canada with more than CAN$10,000, you must tell the CBSA officer. If you do not, you could be fined, and your funds could be seized. These funds could be in the form of:
cash, securities that belong to you (for example, stocks, bonds, debentures, treasury bills), or bankers’ drafts, cheques, travellers’ cheques or money orders.
