Got a response to the webform that everything appears to be in order in the application and they will get back etc etc.

My query was if they need any further process from me in support of the application.
They hardly read all the messages we write. Back in March, I raised webform regarding medical and they replied ` Your request for the extension of the validity of your COPR was received by the responsible office`…haha :D.

Last week, I raised webform with almost the same query. Hopefully I will get the same reply as yours in 2 weeks’ time. :(

Hey everyone! So we got an update from IRCC today saying they have opened our application and have started processing it, if they require any documents or additional information they will contact us and they are reviewing our eligibility and background check. Im guessing getting the re-medicals done will be the next step.

Congrats! Hope they start the next steps for you soon. Can I ask when did you submit your initial PR application?

That's good news. Was the update as a response to a webform?
All I've had is generic replies.

I don't think it was a response to the webform requests we sent across, we sent our VO (Ottawa) a request again two days ago. We got an email today update saying we have made changes to your application number, Kindly open it to review it. It can be a coincidence or they would have seen our webform requests and opened our application, not too sure actually. Once we opened it, the application status update is " we are processing your application. We will send you a message when there is an update or if we need more information from you". From 'document expired' it changed to
'submitted'.
And everything below is mentioned reviewing eligibility, reviewing background check. Our expiry date is blank now and the biometrics as well. Let's see what the next step is, I've heard its re-medicals after this.

Thankyou! But honestly I’ve seen it being a slow process from here aswell. So let’s hope things go well. It was issued in the month of May,2020.

It's great to see some movement for Post March COPRs.
I think it will be re-meds next too. Although I don't see how it's fair that they make everyone go through medicals again when the only reason they expired is because of their restrictions.
It will be interesting to find out.
I hope the next step goes fast for you.

They really need to give some leigh way with approved applicants at this point- people shouldn't be punished for their processing times- being requested new medicals etc, whilst people who are newly approved are just allowed to cross right now. It's a very indecent process if you ask me.

How far expired is it? For certain medicals, they offer an extension based on the class. They really need to get their act together- it's a very unfair situation to be in waiting!
CoPR expired Apr 8th 2021...it is locked down here so, if re med, I got so much problem..

it's really unfair like you said, this entire process if you'll ask me. We have to keep waiting for years, not months to get all these processed. The process is way too slow, getting the re-medicals done is also very expensive from here. We currently reside in the USA.
