Terminal 1 (YYZ Airport) Mississauga ON L5P 1B2 Canada
If you travel frequently to/from the US, then it is recommended you get a NEXUS/Global Entry card. It will cut down your time in pre-clearance to just minutes.
If you get SSSS on your boarding pass , be prepared to have your bags searched and a personal security screening.
Full of people at 5:30am but I went through in less than 20 min. Have your papers ready and just follow the instructions. TSA and DHS are very efficient
When your name comes up in Step 2 your checked luggage has been photographed and you can proceed to getting fancy stamps on your boarding pass
They've come a long way in the last several years- processing is quick and efficient, particularly for Global Entry passengers.
Make sure you arrive three hours early! Especially if you’re checking a bag.
Remember that you are still on Canadian soil and the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms still apply.
If you need visa to enter USA, then you'll take another line , which normally is longer!!! So be early at the airport
Takes ages to get thru but if your flight is just about administration person will push you thru
The new connecting flight customs system is very good.
Here at 3:45am and they're closed. Despite my plane boarding at 5:35am, indications are that they don't open until 5am.
Get a Nexus card . Worth the $ to buy yourself a pass around the lines .
Even when the priority line is closed, if you ask nicely the security people may invent one for you.
best time to fly out, if possible, is after 10 am!!
there are no long lines currently for the transfer although it is saturday.
line ups are aggravating so waste time by leaving a tip while you wait ;)
Make sure you walk up to the custom officer talking on your phone. They love that.
Don't visibly use your cell phone here as you may be yelled at by US CBP agents and threatened to be thrown out of the US Customs & Immigration area.
Just about the worst. Even if there's no line or you're Nexus/Global Entry , don't expect any kind of efficiency.
Bring a snack and a book to pass the time waiting in line .
Get an ESTA.....it's much more civilized.
Holy long line ... even at 4am!
Get here early. Enough said.
People are friendly here...the line goes pretty fast...
Seriously, plan lots of time...line ups even at 6am
Smile. Cooperate.
Nexus is the only way to travel
Get a nexus card and skip the lines
Prepare for long lines . Early morning flights are no exception.
If you had a NEXUS card , you wouldn't be waiting in this line .
Prepare for long wait with no phone and rude officers .
Come early... Long queue
Total ridiculous nightmare of a system. Avoid this airport at all costs.
Long lines !!
long @ss lines so get here early

Nice and relaxing ... Hard to get a seat near an outlet to recharge. Great soup - Kevin Hardy
Make sure to carry your American Express gold or platinum card with you when you go through your security check. AmEx cardholders can go right through the priority lane to skip the huge lineups! - Michelle Kauntz
SO EASY for U.S residents! I've never been through customs faster. - Megan Allison
