I don't know what is in your letter but mine had this "To submit your package outside of Canada: Please submit your package to the nearest Visa Application Centre along with the VAC Passport Transmission fee". There is a VAC office in my state so I mailed it it to them. They forwarded my docs on to IRCC via VFSThe email just said to submit my passport for the COPR. Since Indian passport holders have to submit their physical passports, I am not sure if I have to go and physically deposit it by taking an appointment/no appointment needed, or if I need to do the same via CVAC official courier service. The email didn't clarify these points.
Thanks for clarifying about the RPRF.
I spoke to a few people and they mentioned that RPRF and Biometrics do not have to be paid/done again.
Still confused about the entire process of passport submission.

How much money did you carry there?Good morning from Canada,
I successfully landed with my family before yesterday through Toronto airport
The IRCC officer process was around 5 minutes waiting, 5 minutes process, after 5 other minutes she called me back and said welcome to Canada
The only question from IRCC officer were :
I want to say thank you for all who helped me in this forum with their advises... special thanks for @Titanium !!!!
- How much many are you planning to bring Canada
- Any other family member mentioned who wasn't part of this trip ?
- She asked me also to ensure my custom declaration is done properly.
Good luck for you team, you will do ir believe me.
All the best
There is no specific amount to carry; Just take a rough estimate of how much you will need for a few days of survival (e.g. food, transportation, accommodation, sim card etc). If you have a credit card that works overseas keep that as a back up.How much money did you carry there?
2. https://services3.cic.gc.ca/ecas/introduction.do?app=coanotifyHi - We landed in Calgary yesterday from Mumbai. The immigration process was smooth; no questions asked apart from the 3 questions that are written on the CoPR. The only thing the officer mentioned was that we cannot enter again on the CoPRs and will need a PR card.
1) After we got out of the airport, we realized we did not process the goods to follow form. How do we do that now?
2) Also, the immigration officer asked us to update address for PR card online. My GC key has not been updated and my application still shows ‘Submitted’ with the latest update stating that they are still reviewing eligibility criteria despite receiving CoPR and landing in Canada. Where do I update my address for PR card if application is not updated on GC key?

Yes. Soft landed 25th MarchThats great. You did your landing early april or late march yeah??
Hey Welluf, Congrats!! That was very quick! Even less than the 180 days recommended by the CIC website.Hi Titanium,
I got a message on my GCkey account that my PR card was printed on the 11th of May and mailed to my nominated address in Canada on May 13th. Card could take up to 6 weeks to arrive
Congrats Titanium!By the grace and mercy of Almighty, completed our landing process a few weeks back. All the experiences shared on this forum has helped me a lot for which I will forever be thankful, so want to share our experience ( in brief ) because I hope it will help someone intending to travel in the near future. The process is pretty much similar to what others have described the past couple of months, once they completed the landing.
Print at the kiosk, one print for the family. Read the declaration properly while answering yes or no, as it’s important for the goods to follow etc.
Then proceed to the first queue (goes pretty fast), n the officer will direct you where to go. Then you go to the office that handles immigration. If there are students, expect a real long wait, but usually the officer takes the students in batches to process their documents so your turn can come quickly.
Officer asked pretty basic questions, as per the copr, took the address, told us pr card will take time, asked us to sit while he processed the documents. Once done, called us and congratulated us on becoming permanent residents and handed us the documents. Thats a feeling indescribable and I sincerely pray you all get to experience it.
He didnt ask us if we are carrying any cash, or see any other documents that we had carried.
Declared all the goods to follow, (at the customs office) got it stamped and we were good to go (be as detailed as possible on this document).
But i got picked up for random covid test but that went pretty smooth as well.
