PGP 2020

Good morning.
My parents passed their medicals on July 28, 2022. I was asked for additional documents(sent) and online it says "reviewing". After medicals are passed, how long does it take to receive COPR, approximately?
Thanks

For me it took 7 months to get Passport request after submitting the additional document. The IRCC status sometime is not 100% correct

Hello all,

First time asking a question here. I've found this thread a great source of information, so thanks to all of you!

What is the next thing if you're from a visa-exempt country and you have "Decision Made" on Ecas for the principal applicant? (Medicals and police certificate are still valid for another couple of months, pre-arrival letter received.) I imagine it's the Confirmation of Permanent Residence, right? Do they send you a message to tell you it's on its way, or do they just mail it to you without telling you it's coming?

And is the COPR valid until exactly 12 months after the date of the medical, or do they give you a bit longer? I've heard they sometimes phone you to find out if you have time to come before it expires. How close do you have to be to expiry for that to happen?

Thanks for reading this!

for me it's now 2 months that the status of main applicant is decision made and still nothing.
In reply to my email one month ago, visa office replied that Ready for Visa Letter was sent to me more than a month ago ( 2 days before the status changed to decision made) that I didn't receive such a letter, using Web Form I asked them to resend the Letter but still nothing.
conclusion: as my experience if the main applicant is Decision made in 3-4 days you should be contacted by IRCC and informed of the result. If you have not been contacted you contact them and explain that ECAS is decision made but you have not been informed of the result. Good luck

Hi, your medical result is valid for one year from the day that it has been passed and you should land in Canada as a permanent resident before it expires.
otherwise IRCC may request you to do medical exam again. some visa offices request you to do it again some don't. that depend on your luck. hopefully you have good luck

After 2 years and 7 months my dad was finally approved for PRC. He is already in Canada and I will submit my timeline later today. I wish the best of luck to everyone and lots of patience because every case is different.

Does anyone know how long it takes to receive virtual landing instructions after receiving a "passport request" letter? My parent received a passport request letter despite the Canadian address on the profile. As per letter instructions, we notified IRCC that the applicant is in Canada (via web form), it's been two months and dead silence. I called IRCC and they just tell me to wait. Anyone had experience with this? Thank you for your help

Hi dear
I am in the same boat as you. I was informed that Ready for visa Letter was sent to me on June 19 by Email but I didn't receive this Email. now it is 2 months that I have been asking IRCC via Web Form (the only way of communication that we have) to resend this letter and no response, nothing, as you said: deadly silence.
I just told this so you know that there are many other applicants that are in the same situation and unfortunately cannot do anything except waiting and praying. hopefully this may calm you a little

Try to reach to your local MP , they will help to convey your issue to IRCC quickly

how do you guys get an answer from your MP? I tried email and filling out a "contact us" form on her website but I'm getting no response. And they have no appointments available at the moment.

there was recent news about privacy breach (CIC sent work permit and permanent residence applicants emails with names and UCIs and other personal info to wrong people), so it's possible they sent your email with the letter to somebody else
this article is about work permits but there were others which I can't find quickly right now
