Guys any idea what I should do about the incorrect last date of entry on my COPR? The date they have stated on there is the same as my original entry date.

And to confirm one more time as I am doing my landing tonight. I only need to take my passport, COPR and proof of ID?

That is correct but Why should we take chances after this long? I would take everything what I have so far. For example In first file Passports, COPRs, Proof of ID, POF, Employment letter, T4, current payslips, NOA this year, Driver license, Marriage certificate, all Work permits and study permits. These are must. In Second file, Educational documents, WES, IELTS, Police certificates, Medical, birth certificates. These are optional. It is up to you? Give them whatever they ask. Hope this will help.

Thank you.

Last date of entry on your COPR is in the past?

Landing in an office would be a safer option coz there's no chance of being denied entry.

Yes, it's in the past and I really don't know why they didnt just take their time and look at my passport or their database.

I'm not quite sure why I should be denied re-entry tho. I am CEC inland

I understand that you want to complete landing as soon as possible. I am eagerly waiting for my PP to come back. I'm just suggesting that there's a safer option since your case is a bit different. Think about it:

When you land at border, they could let go the mistake and let you land as a PR. But they could also insist that the mistake needs to be fixed before they can let you enter. The chance might be small but it is still possible. If go to an inland office, they cannot kick you out of the country because of that mistake on date. It just seems safer to land in an office, or fixed the issue with CIC and then go to border to land.

I did my landing last night, and on my COPR also they had wrong "last Entry" date, they have a date which I traveled for the first time. I had no Issues, Officer didn'e even bother to ask us ID's. Just a long wait and then in less than a minute we were done.
