Hey guys so my wife just received her passport and will be coming to Toronto, next Monday. She was asking me about what will happen at the airport when she arrives, and what to expect? What type of questions, and things she will need. Or even what experiences you've all had when you or a loved one first arrived to Canada with a spousal sponsorship PR.

Hi

Your wife will need her valid passport with the visa and her COPR. It's also I good idea to have her prepare an inventory of all the items she will be bringing into the country, as well as what will be coming into the country later.

Is it a stop in the effect that Montreal bound passengers get off, and then that same aircraft continues onto Toronto, or she is going to have a connection, she gets on a totally different aircraft ?
If it is a connection, then she will have to do immigration at the POE which will be Montreal, she will just be an arriving domestic passenger in Toronto. If it is a thru trip, then she would be immigration in Toronto

The biggest issue will be the time in between flights. If it's a short connection, they may end up missing their flight from montreal to toronto.
