Hi,
I'm currently sponsoring my family (Outland sponsorship) to move to Canada. Recently my family got their COPR however as far as I understand we can't travel due to the restrictions currently in place. I'm wondering if there's anyway we can still travel given our current situation.
I noticed on the the site (here) that one of the exemptions for entry is to reunite with family. So my question is if I travel to Canada first without my family. Can they then join me a month or two later based on that exemption? Also it says we would need written authorization from IRCC, so I imagine after I travel we'd have to update our status with IRCC and request such a letter? Is this possible? If so any ideas on how long approval from IRCC would take?
