Hello everybody, hope you are all doing great today. I just joined this forum with some questions regarding the current Canada entry restrictions to COPR holders. This is my and my partner's current status (Applying through EE, FSW-OUTLAND, MAY 9 AOR):

Review of eligibility. December 23, 2020 Your eligibility has been reviewed. Please see the final decision below.
Review of medical results. July 14, 2020 You passed the medical exam.
Biometrics. October 12, 2020 Completed.
Background check. December 1, 2020 Your background check was completed.
Final decision. December 23, 2020 Your application was approved. Check your messages below for details.

Sent the passports to IRCC in December and got them back with the Visas and the COPR in early January. The visas expire May 11, 2021. Now the problem is that on the official Canada website, according to my research, they say COPR holders that got it after March 18, 2020 can't enter Canada right now. They are making exceptions for people with family sponsorships and those living in the US, but we do not meet any of those. Am I reading the official website wrong or this is actually the case? Anyone who got COPR recently with no expired documents arrived Canada recently?

Any information regarding this will be greatly appreciated!

Anyone who recently received approval or COPR, can you please check if your group name was CN COVID PACE from recent GCMS notes?

not sure how to check that, last note of file is from Oct 7, 2020 that says PReVU verified (not sure what it means)
Hey it should be under ADMISSIBILITY, right under criminality. The info sharing should be completely broken down and explained. I am asking this because my info sharing is still in progress. But it’s breakdown has changed from one gcms notes to another. If you will check my post from Thursday you will understand it better. So will you please share what does your info sharing part says.
Thanks

Thanks, it was completed on Jul 16 2020, as I had provided India and US PCC while submitting the application itself.

Hi everyone,

I received 3rd GCMS notes yesterday. Based on the notes, our application has been approved.

Here is our timeline (CEC Inland) :
AoR: May 24, 2020
Medical: Passed (July 23, 2020)
Biometrics:
  • Mine: Oct 3, 2020
  • Spouse: Dec 2, 2020
Criminality: Passed
Info Sharing: Completed
Other Reqs: Cancelled
Final: Approved

Under the Finalize Application section where the CoPR related information is listed:
Updated Date: December 5, 2020
Status: Not Started
Valid to: Jun, 2021
They both have print queue numbers and document numbers.

PS: 1st office is Ottawa, 2nd is Hamilton

Based on your experiences when should we expect the email to access the Portal?
The next question is;
Once we access the portal and submit/upload the required documents if any, do we officially have PR status? or should we wait for the actual PR card?

Thank you
