Do you know what are the next steps after Eligibility approved? Mine is in progress since April

After the sponsor is approved, the focus shifts to the main applicant. The next steps are usually the medical exam, biometrics (if applicable), and then the PR portal process.

First, you complete Portal Step 1, where you submit the applicant's details such as eye colour, height, and other personal information. After that, you complete Portal Step 2, where you upload the applicant’s photo and confirm the mailing address for the PR card.

Once everything is approved, you’ll receive an email confirming the PR approval and be able to download the COPR from the portal while waiting for the physical PR card to arrive by mail.

Sent webform for virtual landing same day as PPR

My understanding was that on March 21, you submitted a webform to update your child’s address to an address in Canada. Since they requested your child’s passport on April 28 instead of beginning the virtual landing process through the portal, I’m assuming the webform submitted on March 21 either did not go through or was not processed correctly?

Yes, they sent us an email requesting proof of landing on May 7 so I’m assuming they only followed the Webform I submitted after receiving the PPR.

Interesting. What tyoe of documents they accept as “proof of landing”?

Exit stamp from home country, boarding pass, and status in Canada (visitors visa). Not sure if that was P1 and we are waiting for P2 now or just asked for proof to be considered inland.
