Just wanted to update everyone here.
I got to the airport a couple of hours before the flight landed to talk to CBSA. One of the officers assured me that everything is available electronically so it's not really an issue. So in the end, she came out without any problems.. she told the customs officials that she didn't bring her landing papers and they just printed out another copy for her.
She had a bit of an issue during her layover in London though. The custom officers almost sent her back to Pakistan from there because they figured she will get sent back from Canada.
Anyway, she is here now and thanks for the people who provided advice and all the best to everyone still waiting for their spouses.
congratulations.

And thanks to the CBSA for such kindness and consideration, they saved you guys from such a hassle.

Hello friends,

I had a question about holding dual passports (Canadian and Pakistani).

Is it ok to travel from Canada to Pakistan on a Pakistani passport and then return to Canada on a Canadian passport? I know there is the option of getting the NICOP card, which I do not have at the moment. I need to travel on short notice hence the question. I do not have a Pakistani visa on my Canadian passport.

Thanks in advance for your help.

It should be ok, i used to do the same. Just make sure that your pakistani passport is still valid when you are entering Pakistan and when coming back from Pakistan. Otherwise they wont let you come back (I almost ended up in this situations)

Thanks for your response!

When you enter Pakistan, I assume, you get your Pakistani passport stamped for entry to Pakistan.

What about when you leave Pakistan on your Canadian passport, do they put the exit stamp on the Pakistani passport or Canadian passport?

I am just curious because some people advised that you should get the entry and exit stamps on the same passport.

Thanks again for sharing your experience!

dont know exactly. To me it sounds like some sort of quality control process that every office has. I wish they did that a little more often.

Entry or exit stamp will both be on your Canadian passport. Pakistani PP will just work as your entry permit in Pakistan like your Visa or Nicop.
