I've heard stories that immigration can be a bitch. Is there anything I need to know or say or do when my GF and I go to vancouver? Is there any possibility that she'll get turned away? |

You should be fine then, don't need to say anything.
Might not be as easy for her. |

Me and my girlfriend (Korean) visited Canada a couple years ago, she had no problems at all. Make sure she has a return ticket (the only requirement that I know of that they didn't even check) when you enter Canada, otherwise that's it, easy 6 month tourist visa. Makes me loathe Korean immigration. |

I'm Canadian with the multi-enry stamp, so I'm pretty sure I'm good to go. But will my GF have any problems? I've heard stories about pearson airport and what not. |

Provided you give immigration no reason to think she will overstay her visa, they won't care. They have bigger fish to fry. Be polite and have a return ticket (for her). No problem. |

My wife (then gf) has flown into Vancouver and Toronto, with 0 problems. She was actually quicker getting through immigration than I was (they asked me more questions) |
