Canadian Immigration
L23R-98B I am trying to locate immigration records for Henrika Berthe van Dijk and Her husband Hendrik Jansen. Both born in the Netherlands. I was able to find a marriage record in 1938 and I'm trying to confirm death dates with records.
Hendrika Bertha van Dijk (1912–1984) • Person • Family Tree
I'm not too familiar yet with researching immigration records and I would love to learn more. Thanks for any help.

Good morning @lindsayanngermer1
Do you know approximately when Henrika and Hendrik arrived in Canada?
You may want to consider that they booked passage to the United States and then traveled across the border into Canada.

I was able to find a find a grave memorial for Hendrika Bertha, here is the link to the record, https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:ZRTX-82ZM?lang=en. When you go to find a grave the tombstone also has the birth and death information for her husband Hendrick. They are buried in Ontario, Canada. I hope this helps.

I reread your question and saw that you would like some help learning how to search for immigration records. From the search page on FamilySearch you can search by collection.
After you click on the collection button you will have a list of collections pop up on the right hand side. From there you need to scroll down until you see the heading Migration and Naturalization.
You can check the box for all Migration and Naturalization Collections or narrow it down. I just checked all and it came up with 225 results.
Good luck with your research!
