can anybody tell me the total procedure from indian airport to canda airport?moreover what kind of questions they ask at the port of entry and what type of documents we have to carry???
Travelling first time,worried.help plzzzzz????
its nothing to worry about
1) u go to air port and get ur boarding pass and check in ur baggage at ur airline counter
2) u go through indian immigration they ask where u going and purpose of travel and check ur visa and passport.
3) u go through security check where they send u through metal detector etc ....
4) u wait for ur boarding and once boarded enjoy ur flight
5) if u have a lay over when u get down u go to the respective terminal.... u should verify ur terminal on the tv monitors on the airport so that u dont go to the wrong terminal. they change terminals often and the one on ur tickets may change. u can also ask ur flight attendant about it too.
6) then same procedure again of security check and boarding the flight to canada the final leg of ur flight.
7) u get a customs form in the plane ...airline flight attendants distribute this form. u fill it ..its very simple form nothing to be worried about. good idea to carry a pen in ur carryon baggage.
8) once u get down in canada u go to the immigration officer...there is a line normally and u will just follow the crowd. Two different lines one for canada citizens /PR and other for foreign nationals. u join the foreign national line. everything is clearly marked so no worries read the boards.
9) at the end of line u will meet an immigration officer. once u tell him ur a student and visited canada for education he will direct u to a different immigration office .
10 ) u will have to collect ur baggage before u go to that different office.
11) in the office they will ask u for all ur documents like ur passport, CAQ(if going to quebec) , admission letter and LOI.
12) then u wait as they process ur study permit and print it out. they will ask u very simple questions . purpose of visit etc no questions about finances etc.
13)they give u the study permit they may tell u what u shouldnt do or the restrictions on ur study permit and then off u go out to find a taxi.....
there may be some difference depending on which airport u land.
