That's what they told me. Then I emailed the office from which I got test on Monday (Niagara). All these months they never replied but for the first time they did. It does sound like local office has the file. The customer service probably either doesn't know or won't disclose all the information.
Interesting, what did you email them? Perhaps I can try that too.

So I applied for gcms notes and one thing I found on it was this:
PLS VERIFY PHYSICAL PRESENCE AS CLIENT DATE AND DATE ON APP FOR PR ARE OFF

I used the date mentioned on my coPR as my PR date. Nothing else is mentioned around it. Did anyone else ever had this? What should I do?
