Canada/US border estimated to ease in July/August, but we shouldn't expect a sharp transition. It will probably be opened in stages, which means outlander processing will resume even later. My guess is around Nov - Dec. Piling up the 2 - 3 months background processing time, we won't see COPR for outlanders until Jan - Feb as I guess.

Why should it be only after CA/US border opens we can expect anything for post March 18 CoPR ppl?
Can they just give exemptions for Outland applicants and deal with visitor crowd later?
Frustrating thing there wasn't any talk about CoPR ppl in most of the press briefing with the Government officials.
If I missed it please post here.

People talking about FSW Outlands, and I’m sitting here with FSW Inland application.

I’m in CANADA! Why am I not seeing any updates? This is extremely frustrating. Thankfully my work permit expires in Dec 2022 so I can still hunker up and wait, but its just ridiculous. I’m eligible to get PR, I’m already in Canada, IRCC knows I’m in Canada, so what’s the deal?

TBH it's a complete mystery. You have my understanding. If FSW-I/O are still stagnant by the time border is opened up, something like invoking Madamus would be reasonable IMO.

And what is even more frustrating is when you see people with 2021 aor getting Copr. It is just idiotic and what is even more idiotic is some people from IRCC making excuses for this.

Many thanks for @legalfalcon :cool: He has been such a blessing, always guiding the applicants thru this stressful time.
I have an almost similar timeline
Inland PNP, VO: Sydney, AOR: March 15, 2020
I got a ghost update on June 15th that my medicals have been extended. Today I got an email from IRCC regarding the COPR portal. I just responded with the details they asked for. Hopefully, I get access to the COPR portal soon.
One weird thing is, as per my GCMS notes in April, my primary VO was Sydney and my secondary VO was Ottawa. But today I received the email from IRCC Etobicoke

All applicants who apply for PR to Canada have to be admissible to Canada on the following:

Criminal
Medical
Security

The statement above simple means that you are not criminally inadmissible i.e. based on criminality there are no concerns that would make you inadmissible (ineligible) to enter Canada.

My online portal says Medical was extended on June 18th, but I never got an alert email. Did anyone experience something similar?

Thanks very much @legalfalcon . Then why they have not passed the criminality. It’s in progress from long time i.e. 12 months.

Aor 2 March 2020 FSW Inland

One of my friends applied in February 2021 and got his Copr and another friend who applied at the end of March 2021 has passed all the stages and waiting for the final decision.

This long wait has started to create some kind of anxiety in my daily life. Instead of waiting in uncertainty, I decided to apply again as Cec.

In my case, I am the main applicant and my wife is my dependent. Since we completed our application, my wife completed her Canadian work experience, and this time we will show my wife the main applicant to pass all stages in normal time.

Would love to hear when you have updates. I assume they didn't refund the application fee?
