Your COPR has an expiry date. It is typically a year from the date of your medical. You need to land before the expiry date.

I've already passed the medical exam; that was within the evaluation period. I just received a message that my PR has been approved. I just sent my passport for the stamps. Will I receive it as of the moment?



Thank you so much for the answer.

Of course you’ve completed your medical but as I specified the COPR expiry date is one year after your medical. Assume you received a passport request before you submitted the passport. If so just wait until your passport is stamped. You will see the expiry date of the COPR when your passport is returned. You must land in Canada before the COPR expiry date. Passport stamping times vary by location so tough to predict when you will receive your passport back.
