when can i fly after getting visa

[yasi]

hi all

I am persuing Spousal visa. M at london and my wife is  at canada.

1.My question is after getting visa what is the laest time (eg.5 or 6 months) i need  to fly for canada or its up to me when i want to go?

2.Secondly when CIC ask for passport does they as for flight reservation or something like that?

 Your answer will be highlt appreciatable.

In answer to your first question, you'll have until your medical runs out to land in Canada. The medical lasts for 12 months from when you have it done.   If your medical runs out before you get your visa (or I guess if it's almost run out), they'll ask you to do another medical, which will give you another 12 months from when it's done.

And no, you don't need to tell CIC when you intend to go to Canada or show any flight reservation. When you go to Canada is up to you, just be sure to do it before the visa expires.

Your "Immigrant visa" will be valid for 1 year from the date of the medical or the expiry of the passport.  Whichever comes first.  You must enter Canada before it expires.
