    Non-Express Entry(PNP) Online Applications Gather here

    Your TRV and any permit you have is cancelled when you land as a PR. You're inland so I'm assuming you'll receive eCOPR instead of COPR as mentioned in your post.

    Hi, congrats on getting Portal 1. 1. You need to tell them when you're planning to come back. They'll probably tell you to contact them again when you're back in Canada. 2. Hard to say, for some people like me just one month, for others longer. eCOPR usually takes a couple weeks after you...
