If I need to clear customs and immigration will i need to wait for any checked luggage there too? (I guess I will be told this part when checking in, but thought I'd ask here since it was related).

Thanks,

You will need to clear customs and immigration but since you are on an intl connection I believe with the new "Fly-Thru" lane you can skip waiting for and rechecking your bag.
