COPR and coronavirus

[amyung]

Hi folks,
Need an advise. Does anyone know, if you can travel to Canada within 2-3 months of passport expiry? Or should I renew the passport to be safe?

You need at least 6 months availability of a passport so yeah renew them now.

I think passport should be valid at least for six months when someone apply for PR but six-month expiry is not required for travel. I am saying because I can't find any official link on IRCC web which says about six-month validity for travel.

My apologies for replying you late, yes same here I did notice the same...

6 month expiry is required for travel. This is the same for a lot of countries.

Hi
Is there anybody here waiting for revert or update, with expired copr issued by ndvo before 18th match and whose application has moved to in progress from approved status but hasn't received, 4 pointer email or remedical request??

Has anyone received a reply from PHAC? I wrote them a while ago because I'm not part of any exemption group, however, my situation is a bit complicated as my visa expired on the country of residency and going back to home country is not possible. I provided all documents, etc. and this was the reply.

Dear Mr. ---,

Thank you for your correspondence related to your wish to enter Canada.

By way of this email, the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) is of the opinion that you would likely be permitted entry to Canada, and would not likely be exempt from quarantine, based on the assessment below.

The COVID-19 pandemic has created unprecedented complexities and challenges in our country and globally. The Government of Canada continues to implement border measures to limit the introduction and spread of COVID-19.

Prohibition of Entry Order

At this time, the Government of Canada has prohibited foreign nationals from all countries from entering Canada for non-essential travel through the Order in Council bla bla bla.

Under these orders, all travel of an optional or discretionary nature, including tourism and recreation, is prohibited.


As a Canadian permanent resident you are permitted by right to enter Canada.

Mandatory Isolation Order

The Government of Canada has implemented the Emergency Order bla bla bla

My plan is to travel mid-Jan. CoPr/MED expires in Mar-21. Issued on Aug/2020.

Also, I got particularly interested in the head of e-mail, with REf#, PHAC-COVID-EO-EXT-WP, 4 dig and my name.

[juxta_rn]

how do you call IRCC from outside canada? thanks

 

[juxta_rn]

Hello everybody. Im new in this topic.
Recently I have spoken with 2 ircc agents and I was told that traveling with copr issued after March 2020 is possible and that I just need to send them webform saying I am ready to travel followed by my quarantine plan.
It is weird because the website says otherwise.
Any thoughts?
Thanks

really? did you pushed tru?
