Hi All,

GC key was updated today as below.

a) When can I expect P1?

b) Also, I have travel plans in the next week which I cannot avoid. What should I do if I get P1 to confirm my Canada presence? I will be in Canada for another week, so can I confirm and travel out of the country next week since anyway it takes time to get P2 or we should be in Canada once we respond to P1 confirming that I am in Canada?

c) I am currently on a Work permit, so will they cancel my work permit as soon as the COPR number is genetrated in tracker after P1 (I see people mentioning COPR number before P2)?

Application submitted on July 19, 2024. Are you sure work permit will not be cancelled once COPR number is generated in PR tracker? My understanding is that when they grant Permanent Residency, all other temporary residence statuses will be cancelled.

Also, if I inform them that I have travel plans or I will not be in Canada for a month, will they ask me to reapply under Outland or ask me to reach out to them once I am back in Canada? Please clarify, thanks.

If you are outside of the country by the time they send you P1 essentially your landing will be on hold till you come back. Meaning your work permit won't be canceled until you come back n confirm your presence in Canada. I would suggest if you really can't avoid the traveling...just travel as planned..when you get P1..reply there is a question that asks if you inside the country reply honestly that you willbe traveling. It would delay the landing process but your work permit will be valid till you come back n initiate landing again.

I did something similar with Citizenship oath, I was traveling n couldn't resechedule so I told them am traveling they postponed the process because if I did go thru with it needed me to cut my PR card then I wouldn't have a travel document to enter Canada with. I had to email them when I got back to Canada to resume the process it took time, but eventually they resecheduled me for oath ceremony.

Thank you so much for the response. Quick question: If I get the P1 while I am in Canada, if I respond that I will be travelling for a month, then would they still consider my as Inland applicant or ask me to reapply under Outland? I don't think so, but just confriming.

I wouldn't think so. You will still be inland I believe they will put your file on hold and resume when you notify them that you are back in Canada.
