My COPR and medical will also expire August 25 2021, I’ll follow your progress.
August 18th here. I'm really tired of this uncertainty.
If the us/Canada border opens and one has a current visitor visa to the US. Will it be possible to go by land?

Thanks. I have applied for renewal of my wife's passport, thankfully the passport office opened this week. One more question, we are the the stage where after getting the 'Do you still want to immigrate' email, we have gotten the re-medical request and have gotten our remedicals done. Now waiting for the medical results to be updated. At this stage after getting a new passport, how do we update IRCC of the same? Do i simply raise a web-form and attach the old and new passport's? Or is there any other specific process i have to follow for updating the passport in our application?
Take a scan of the new passport and send it via webform. That is all.

hi there, for folks who have passed re-medicals (post 'are you interested in immigrating' email), how long is the wait till the next step? For PCC or PPR? what are the timelines like?
I am going to do my re-medicals soon and I know of someone who conclude it on May 16th. Perhaps you want to reach me privately so we can expand our network of known cases of people on the same boat. I'll let you know when I have any news from this person whose re-medicals was concluded May 16th.

Hi, I replied positively to the mail "Do you still want to immigrate" and now the profile is updated (expired COPR details are disappeared and current status is shown as submitted). could someone please tell me after the profile got updated how long it took to receive the re-medical request?
Not long. In a few weeks you'll receive the re-medicals request...

Hey

It depends on a case to case basis. A person in this group got it in 10 days. I got mine in 25 working days but you will definitely get it. Just hang in there.
And your new CoPR after re-medicals has an expiry date of 1 year after the re-medicals date?

Hi guys,

So i received the physical copy of the new COPR. There is a remark mentioning: This document replaces the client's previous confirmation of permanent residence document which was issued on or before March 18,2020.

I guess that says all, you are free to travel to Canada with the new COPR :D

I will not travel until I get my 2nd vaccine done in the UK. Just want to say thanks to everyone here that helps answering all the questions and good luck to you all.
That's great news!
So when does your new CoPR expires?

Post March CoPR, we received the email without any action from our side
Hi Klaverveld,
Just want to confirm with you , you received a "are you interested to travel" email even though you received your COPR post 18 March 2020 ?
I got my COPR on 21 March 2020, missed it by the weekend on 19-20 March. So very anxious to hear that you got email to travel even you post March 2020. Can you please shed some light on what you did ? Are you under PNP or any other visa ?
Thanks a ton !

No, we received the "do you still want to immigrate' email. That mentioned that we can't travel niet and will have to wait just a little longer.
We got a PNP, but are a FSW application

I'm doing it on June 3rd myself. Hopefully it won't take long after that for us to receive the new docs.
By the way the doctor confirmed that she can update the outdated address in eMedicals so no worries.

Yes it is possible but expensive, also you need to get a visitor visa for USA, it will take more time to go, where are we from?

Hello,

I called the IRCC, and they informed me that my file has been transferred to the local visa office - New Delhi.. and they don't have information about my file.. I want to know what stage is that.. ?

I am sure there must be some discussions on this topic previously, however since i am a new member, if someone can provide me a link of those, it would really help me.. :)
Thanks!
