I attached my notice of seizure, copy of my passport that I am requesting and my eCoPR. read my previous post in this thread I detailed everything. Good luck!

i applied for and got a tourist visa in 2022, i dont know about any other visa for india. so where is your rtd? with bls? they stopped giving tourist visas end of last year and have not restarted for RTD holders yet.

you do not need your PR card to pick up your passport. I sent my ecopr in the email to request for my passport. I showed my mailing address proof and drivers license. on the appointment letter to pick up your passport they will specify what ID you need.

it is up to you, only costs $5 some people apply many times some people apply toward the 'end' of the timeline. I applied for mine after I got my eligibility letter (towards the end) and it was helpful to see that my partner's application was sent to VO Delhi, that info sharing was done etc. as...

the other thing I would do if your processing time is more than the normal processing time, call IRCC and ask them to flag your application to your case worker. The agent can only do this if your processing time has exceeded what is considered 'normal'. They did this for me with my PR card.

you can send a webform, request ATIP and call IRCC to try and get an update- i found a combination of these things can help. good luck

folks you should read the other posts in this thread, me and someone else just received our PR card last week and our eCoPR was Jan 17th 2024 so naturally the ones who got their ecopr later will still be waiting. this is from etobicoke. also ecopr validity and pr card validity are not the same...

I received my PR jan 2024 and my overseas partner was on my application (submitted feb 2022). I havent gotten any update for her at all other than PCC in oct 2022. can I track her application anywhere other than ecas?

I traveled to India on my RTD no PR and answered that question saying yes, I claimed asylum in Canada. I would recommend you also answer honestly and apply for the visa the way any other Canadian citizen would.

I got that update many times and it was always good news, I would recommend calling IRCC and asking about your specific application. The agents at IRCC each time told me my application was approved and then 1-2 weeks later that was updated online.

In case you have not already I would pressure them with ATIP requests, calls/webforms to IRCC and approaching your MP to advocate for you until you can take them to court basically.

10 days. but they didnt tell me, I called n found out it was mailed.

yes it is normal, it took 2 months from ecopr to pr card delivery for me.

I received my PR card in the mail on Friday 15th march. good luck everyone!

feb 2022 applicant ecopr jan 2024 got my PR card on friday. more details in my signature. good luck everyone!

you can only retrieve your passport after PR, not before. also you can lose your refugee status and right to remain in canada if you use your national passport for any travel, or even if you renew it. as a refugee you should only use an RTD to travel.

I do see what you mean as new RTD applications require you to send them the original national passport, but I am not sure how to answer your question. @scylla @Simba112 any advice is appreciated

I visited india on my RTD no PR, they only issue 1 month visa for RTD but from last year they have stopped issuing all tourist visas to india in canada because of a political issue and they have not restarted it yet. I check every week :confused:

Congratulations! One less stress in your life. Take care :)

No I do not plan to use my passport for travel as I only travel on my RTD (and I will not risk losing my asylum status), and will not be renewing it. I just need it show it over zoom to verify my identity for something back home.
