    COPR and coronavirus

    Hi All, I did my landing on July 20th and so far I haven't received my PR card. Is there a way to do something about it? Or it's the same for everyone with PR card issue delays? It would be really helpful if someone can share their experience. Btw, my landing was in YVR.

    COPR and coronavirus

    Yeah, I wasn't sure either and simply picked the 'immigration' or 'returning to canada' option if I remember correctly. It was pretty confusing so only that one seemed relevant.

    COPR and coronavirus

    I'm fully vaccinated, so no institutional quarantine. I got tested before departing and once on arrival at YVR airport. I need to do daily health check-in on ArriveCan and that's pretty much all.

    I believe, I've updated the timeline in my signature bar.

    COPR and coronavirus

    Hello All, This community has been very supportive and helpful. Just wanted to update you all that I've recently successfully completed my landing in Canada. I flew from SFO - YVR, immigration part was super smooth and literally it took less than 10 minutes end-to-end. VO asked no question...

    COPR and coronavirus

    Hmm that's interesting. Not sure why some are getting VAC vs Ottawa. This is the email I've for Ottawa: CPC-CTD-Ottawa@cic.gc.ca

    COPR and coronavirus

    Thanks. Yes, last time I also submitted to Ottawa, but this time it's a different process with VAC. What's confusing me is their "Package Transmission Fees" for Biometrics? My Biometrics is recent and valid but somehow they need fees again? I'm fine with paying if that's applicable but it's not...

    COPR and coronavirus

    Did you receive PPR for VAC in New York as well? I'm really confused about their instruction on mailing the passports to VAC. Did you email vfsShippingLabel or simply sent the package along with a return envelope? It would be really helpful if you or someone can share how they handled mailing...

    COPR and coronavirus

    Surprisingly, nothing got updated in profile until I received PPR.

    COPR and coronavirus

    Good catch, yes, that was a typo in my signature. I got the PPR, fortunately, no PCC or FBI (yet). IRCC.IN-RROC-CORR-RI.IRCC@cic.gc.ca

    COPR and coronavirus

    Hi All, Just wanted to update the community, today I received my PPR request email asking to submit passports, photos to VAC in New York (I'm based out of the US). I've updated the timeline of steps in my signature but would like to mention few interesting things that the community might find...

    COPR and coronavirus

    Thanks a lot - this is very helpful. I've submitted the web-form, now let's see if I hear back from them or they accept these medical. Btw, sorry if this has already been answered on the thread: - How can one know if the medical has been accepted by IRCC or not? Do they update the status on the...

    COPR and coronavirus

    Hello Guys, Need some urgent advice. I just received my re-medical request in the CIC portal. However, 3 months back I was visiting India (I live in US) and got the up-front medical done while I was there as that seems like the right thing to do. Now, I got the re-medical request with the IME...

    COPR and coronavirus

    Hi Guys, I'm currently in India (visiting from US), is there any way I can get medical done assuming that IRCC is going to asks for re-medical (when/if they extend COPR). Any particular hospital in Delhi and what documents to take (since IRCC hasn't asked for re-medical yet)?

    COPR and coronavirus

    Hi All, Need some pointers, I'm currently in USA (VO - Ottawa), like most of us, my COPR in May 2020. Since August I've raised multiple 'ready to travel' requests, so far there's no update/response other than the generic replies. My medical expired in May 2020, and even with "6-months"...

    COPR and coronavirus

    Anyone from US got any new update? Today I got another useless email saying 'your case is being worked on'. I raised ready-to-travel webform about 2 months ago and nothing since then.

    COPR and coronavirus

    As answered already 'ready to travel' is only applicable for the candidate whose COPR and travel docs have expired and are now ready to travel to Canada. Hope it helps.

    COPR and coronavirus

    That's quite interesting. Not sure if this has happened to anyone before or at least I haven't seen a case yet where someone got PPR without raising 'ready to travel'. Nevertheless, it's a good sign that IRCC is proactively working on the backlog. I'm still waiting to hear back from IRCC raised...
