eCOPR validity less than 6 months

[Parthvi2023]

Hello,

I am in Canada for the last 2 years under open work permit.

I received my PR approval yesterday in the portal and the eCOPR has a validity of October 10, 2023. I am confused.
Will I be getting my PR card with a different validity date, say for 5 years?

How does it work? Can anyone share their thoughts here. Thanks!

eCOPR is valid until you get PR card. Make sure you print it before it disappears as it will be there for 7 days.
Yes PR cards are usually for 5 years.

As per my lawyers, the eCOPR validity is Not Applicable when you are an Inland Candidate. Also I still have my eCOPR for download in my portal after 2 months

Hello everyone,

I went to BLS (Toronto) for my passport renewal application. I was told I need to submit ECOPR/ landing paper along with my PR card and application. Apparently, I didn't save eCOPR because it was on the portal so I just confirmed it and sent my digital photo with other information at that time after receiving eCOPR. Also, I received my PR in Canada. I checked on the portal of IRCC but account doesn't seem active. Can I request IRCC to reissue eCOPR?

Please advise. I appreciate your help. Thanks!
