WELCOME TO CANADA!

Please make sure you collect and bring all your Carry-On items and documents with you off the aircraft.
Proceed to the Canada Customs and Immigration checkpoint. When you reach this area:
Wait for your turn in the line/queue to be called by the Immigration Officer Present yourself professionally and attentively and in an organized fashion, ready with the immigration documents:
- Valid Temporary Resident VISA or eTA

As the Immigration Officer verifies and asks questions, please ensure you are providing them with full attention and focus and responding to their questions. Upon verification & immigration questions, the officer may issue you a Study Permit and stamp your passport.
The immigration officer will redirect you to proceed further towards Baggage Claim.
If you have any connecting flights, please follow the signs to drop your bags, clear security and find your gate.
B. Travel From Airport to Accommodations
As long as you have submitted your arrival forms with at least 3 business days notice, Sault College makes FREE Airport Pickup arrangements via pre-arranged taxi or limousine service from the Sault Ste. Marie Airport (YAM) to take you to your final destination in Sault Ste. Marie.
Please note: in Sault Ste. Marie we can provide a taxi from the Sault Airport or from the Ontario Northland bus terminal. If you take the bus, please get off at “Sault Ste. Marie” as the bus arrives late at night and this is the bus terminal. The other listed stops of “Sault College” and “Sault Area Hospital” are just roadside stops and not ideal for late-night arrivals.
