My timeline:

PR Application Submitted: April 17, 2025

Updated forms requested and submitted: June 2026
Biometrics Request: June 2026
Biometrics Completed: June 18, 2026
Police certificates requested and submitted: June 2026

I haven't received my pre-arrival yet.
Based on your experience, when do you think I can expect my pre-arrival? Has anyone had a similar timeline? Any insights would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

Hello,
I am a Protected Person living in Alberta. I applied for permanent residence in April 2025.
About 40 days ago I completed my biometrics. Today I received the Pre-Arrival Letter (PAL / IMM 5801) by email.
Since I am already in Canada, could you please tell me what the next steps are after receiving this letter?
Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi @Ta-tasunta,
Did you get any updates on your application?
Based on my own tracking (the dates may vary, as it only estimates the overall processing timeline),
it looks like you're one of the last February 2025 applicants who is still waiting.

And any March 2025 applicants, @shnerca @AthanaseNiyongabo @RetroRouge @Amoor , who get your P1 or not?
Thank in advance you guys for your replies.

Mine hasn't reached the eCOPR stage yet. I replied to the IRCC P1 email asking them to pause P2 issuance, since I'll be traveling to Mexico next month and don't want to cancel my trip or get stuck outside Canada if they issue the eCOPR while I'm travelling.
