Received the following email for a web form and saw a ghost update on the profile this morning:

FSW - Outland (Express Entry)
Country of Residence: India
AOR: May 8 2020

Any good signs? Criminality says Valid but security not initiated.
Haven’t received any re- medicals request but hoping to get it extended.

=============

Thank you for contacting Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).

We verified the information on file and can confirm that:

  • The responsible office is currently verifying if your application meets the eligibility requirements under the immigration program for which you have applied.
  • The security background verification has not been initiated.
  • The criminal background verification is currently valid.
· The medical examination results on file have expired. Since the medical exam results are valid for 12 months only, you may need to have another exam. At this time, we can confirm that no action is required on your part for this step in the application process.

Due to COVID-19, IRCC is experiencing processing delays and we can't give accurate processing times for most types of applications. Our ability to review and process applications is also being affected.

Rest assured that we are making all the necessary efforts to finalize your application as soon as possible, and that you will be informed when a decision is reached or if additional information is needed.

CEC
Hello I'm new to this thread and I'm quite confused about my current situation
I'm CEC, outland(outside of Canada), and single applicant and my aor is May 16, 2020

I recently received my GCMS note after its delay of 90 days (just yesterday)
and on my notes, it says

ASSESSMENTS
Eligibility: Passed
Security: (blank)
Criminality: Passed
Medical: Passed
Info Sharing: Complete
Other Reqs: Cancelled
Final: Approved

and I noticed there's something has been added to FINALIZE and COPR section on my note
It says it's valid until 2021/05/13 just approximately after 1 year of my last medical exam date
I'm concerned so much that it's already end of March 2021 and it's almost close to expire
However I did not receive any COPR email, nor phone calls, even my status on my cic account is still the same(nothing changed)
I did not receive anything not even a single signs of PPR, etc

Just in case I'm attaching photos of my GCMS note about those sections, please
@legalfalcon or anybody in the same situation let me know...
Thank you,






**Plus: I saw CPCO COVID RFV under Group section my GCMS..does this affect issuing my COPR or PPR on my application? (I assume..)
Thank you...!
I am in the same situation, similar dates to you. AOR 21st May and from my GCMS notes I am approved. I also have my COPR issued under "Finalize Application" on 2nd October 2020. But mine expires 26th May 2021. No updates on my account, I only know this from my GCMS notes.

I think because we are outland, they are not sending PPR's due to travel restrictions. I am also nervous that my COPR is expiring soon. I hope they can automatically extend them and then send out PPR's when they remove travel restrictions.

I am in the same situation and no need to worry about the expiry date which shows in the online portal. The COPR doesn’t have any mention about this expiry date. Inside COPR document, they mentioned 1 year validity from the date which they issued the COPR.
