When you come to Canada, you must show your Confirmation of Permanent Residence (COPR) to a Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) officer at the Port of Entry. The officer will make sure your travel and immigration documents are correct.
The CIC officer will check that your visa has not expired. You cannot use a permanent residence visa after it expires. The expiration date is shown on the visa. Permanent residence visas cannot be extended, so make sure you use your visa in the proper time.
You must bring a valid passport with you. Your passport must be a regular, private passport. You cannot immigrate to Canada with a diplomatic, government service or public affairs passport.
You will have to answer questions like the ones you answered on your Application for Permanent Residence in Canada. The CIC officer asks these questions to make sure you are of good character and are in good health.
You must also show proof of your funds at this time.
The above list of items is the minimum of what you will bring with you. Below is a list of documents that you will want to make sure you have with you. These will be useful and helpful for you and your family in the areas of employment, health, education and finding housing.
Make sure that you have the following documents:
-Landing Record, of Permanent Residence (COPR) (visa issued by the Canadian authorities)
-Passport or other travel documents. You cannot immigrate to Canada with a diplomatic, government service or public affairs passport.
-Birth certificate
-Marriage certificate (if you are married)
-Family records
-Valid driver's licence: You need to bring a Driving Experience Letter from your country to avoid starting from Scratch in getting your Driver's licence in Canada (G1 and G).
-Medical records
-Dental records
-Vaccination booklet, specially for your kids (if any)
-Official school records for school age children
-Diplomas, degrees and other proofs of education
-Academic credentials evaluation report (if you have had your education assessed before coming to Canada - a good idea!)
-Academic transcripts: very important if you are an engineer or a doctor, because you will need to work on your Professional License before you can are ALLOWED to work in Canada.
-Course and internship descriptions
-Proof of work experience: reference letters from previous and current employers
-Proof of continuing education
-Professional qualification certificates: specially for IT Professionals, Project Managers (PMP), and Accountants!
-Up-to-date resume or summary of work experience, with any letters or recommendation from former employers
-Proof of funds available
If you are interested in continuing your Education in Canada and take either Online Degree or in Campus Degree, then you need to make sure to bring the above related documents, as going back to school is one of the best options to advance your career and get a job easily, as a Degree from a Canadian University is considered a "Canadian Experience" and highly recognized in the Canadian Job Market.
