    PR Card (New/Renewal) Processing Timeline 2021

    I have the same issue and am tied to going through Seattle to go to a family gathering in the UK. I think the issue is the airline letting you on. Your ETA is cancelled at some point between your eCOPR being issued and your card arriving. I think (and i may be wrong) the airline are duty bound...

    virtual landing - CoPR - PR card

    Hi there - yes there was. I was landed on 3rd May, I received PPR on 26th Oct, so just over 6 months in my case. I did two things eventually, firstly wrote to my MP, who was able to speak to IRCC and get me a 'nothing wrong with application' update but also said they could not intervene as an...

    virtual landing - CoPR - PR card

    I’m not sure IRCC call for virtual landing. They didn’t in my case. I can’t see why they would have reason to, by the virtual landing stage all of the details should be ironed out. Likely it was something else I would guess

    Arriving in 3 weeks

    Hi - you’re fine with just the ETA I think. But bring copies of your latest correspondence from IRCC relating to COPR and landing portal just in case. I doubt you’ll need it, they were always pretty reasonable with me through the process. Good luck!

    London Visa Office 2020/2021 (Outland Applicants)

    Just to add some info to this…I am a straight forward Outland UK citizen application married to Canadian for 8 years. Applied 5th May 21, received PPR in late October. I’m still waiting for COPR from London VO. I even asked my Canadian MP to enquire for me (as I’m in Canada with my wife) and...

    virtual landing - CoPR - PR card

    Hi thanks for the reply. Ive called IRCC twice in that period and have been told to wait. They don’t strike me as knowing a great deal more than me to be honest. Ditto the webform I’ve sent that twice. So I’m going to deliver a letter to the MP tomorrow and ask for help. Regarding the London...

    Hi all - I’m wondering if anyone can help. I received my PPR in October for my spousal Outland application. I am in fact in Canada with my wife and have been for sometime. According to the PPR letter I submitted my passport copy for virtual landing both via web form and GC key. Since then...

    MAY 2021 *Outland* Spousal Sponsorship

    Seems to have slowed down a bit. I am in Canada with my wife so cant submit my passport to a VFS office I just have to submit a scan through GC Key and get virtually landed. I did this on 26th October and it hasn’t moved at all. My application has been pretty efficient so far so I’m thankful and...

    From reading the correspondence, I think if you are visa exempt you copy your passport, attach two photos to spec, confirm eye colour and height, include a copy of your PPR letter and a copy of your residency fee payment (if you have not paid this upfront) and then send it to the VAC office in...

    MAY 2021 *Outland* Spousal Sponsorship

    Hi - it’s very straight forward. You upload proof of double vaccination to the ArriveCAN app 72 hours before arriving. Take a paper copy just incase and have it ready with your passport when you land.

    MAY 2021 *Outland* Spousal Sponsorship

    I was asked to upload my medical receipt but also found no option to upload within GC Key. I went for web upload in the end but got no confirmation or update in GC key that they had got it. I think they are just super busy, I raised a technical query regarding the upload and heard nothing, I...

    Pre-arrival letter tonight just when I was thinking it had been ages since any movement. Still no medical request but that seems to be the way it goes in terms of the random order of things.

    MAY 2021 *Outland* Spousal Sponsorship

    Thanks for the response. I think yours appears to be going quicker based on the fact I believe you said your partner was in Canada and you are not? I thought I read somewhere priority was being given to separated couples, which my wife's and I are not. I am accompanying my wife back to Canada on...

    Good morning all, How quickly should we expect medical requests to come through? My application was received 5/5 and acknowledged 16/6. Biometrics were requested and completed immediately but since then ive heard nothing regarding a medical. I just wondered where people were at with medicals...
