Principal Applicant (Inland) Dependent (Outland) during COVID-19
- Thread starter Whateverman
- Start date
Their application might have been approved before March 18, 2020.
As one of my dependent friend also got the travel document. The letter states:
On March 18, 2020, the Government of Canada announced travel restrictions to Canada to reduce the spread of COVID-19 and protect the health and safety of Canadians.
Your application for permanent residence (PR) was approved on 2020/02/06
At this time, we are not printing and mailing new CoPRs or PR visa counterfoils. For your travel to Canada, you will need to:
bring this letter;
show it to the airline as proof that you are exempt from the travel restriction and that
your COPR and PR visa are valid; and,
use this letter before 2021/01/29
So is there anyone who got approved (inland) after March 18, 2020 and their outland dependent got travel document or CoPR?
Yes my spouse is in Canada and i updated that in August 2020.
GCMC notes says my application was approved in March however never issued COPR.
Tried calling IRCC on 1-888-242-2100 (pressing 3-4-1-0 ) and now they are not attending calls.

Hi, since your dependent is outland, may I ask if you have already become the PR (receiving COPR through mail or email directly)? Just wondering under the current travel restriction whether your dependent outland will be exempt and is able to come to Canada? Thanks.
