Where do we get the landing Card?

its the customs declaration card, you will get it inflight - the airline staff will distribute them as the plane approaches a canadian airport

here is what it looks like:

Hopefully landing Toronto next week. My concern is about accepatble easy landing fund showing. I tried to open bank account before landing but no bank is given this except for uk residents. So I contacted money transferring agents they allow only bank deposit for high amount like 12000 cad. So I am thinking to issue a money order from my name to one of my family friends Canadian bank account and later I will get it back. Is it ok to satisfy immigration officer during landing and showing all documents and fact telling. You know carrying cash too much is Risky! Let me know quickly as I have to arrange all.thanks

Why dont you get a draft cheque issued payable to you, instead of your friend? you should still have a reasonable amount of cash though as it could take a few weeks to cash the cheque.

Friends do we have to collect luggage bags to show to the immigration officer after landing at first port of entry at Toronto or will the luggage bags will be automatically uploaded by the airlines to the connecting flight to Edmonton.

Please give your reply since I have only 2hrs 30 min time between first port of entry and connecting flight and I am landing on next week.

I have no practical idea but the standard is if your ticket was bought from same airline where Toronto to Edmonton may be operated by another local airline with main airlines flight number as 4 digit then that has code sharing. This means you need nothing to do you will get your baggage at final destination and everything will be like same. But check your connecting flights airport in your ticket is it from international or domestic. Again contact with your airlines customer care service to know the details.

Hello seniors!

Has anyone sent PR cards from Canada to US via FedEx or UPS? I had to go back to US before they arrived and now I may not drive by road to Canada. So I must have PR card in order to travel.

Thanks for your advise!

Hi! I just want to ask,

1). in the customs declaration card, what address are we going to write? Our address in our home country or our future address in canada?

2). If we are 5 in the family (2 adults and 3 kids) do we need to fill-out one mire form? Because there are only four spaces available for names.

Thank you

If you are arriving as a newcomer - first time in canadian soil, write your old home country address

2). If we are 5 in the family (2 adults and 3 kids) do we need to fill-out one mire form? Because there are only four spaces available for names.

you need to fill 2 forms then. Adult 1 + 3 kids in one form, and Adult 2 on a seperate form

Thank you
