    COPR can I complete landing with current passport

    Thank you! Why would the airline not allow me to board? I can also show my return ticket is within 3 months. Does anyone know if Air Canada uses the 6 month passport validity rule? It seems some airlines do and some don't, hard to leave it to chance as I could lose out on my flights on Tuesday.

    Alternative options - sponsoring a sibling

    Thanks so much for your replies Yes, it seems the study route is really the only option. I will look for suitable courses and hopefully find something affordable and suitable for him. It seems the policy of only parental sponsorship is quite rigid and doesn't account for more unique family...

    Sorry to hear, such a long wait to endure. You are in Security screening? Hopefully it is nearing the end. They won't grant a medical extension until background/security are completed. So they will probably ask you to renew the medical when they are done and your PPR is near
