I'm sorry. I'm new here. What exactly is a portal invite? Is that the letter stating the next steps to get the actual portal and later COPR? Could someone brief that?

It's an email from IRCC confirming that the PR has been approved and requesting the applicant to confirm personal information.
After you reply to this email, IRCC will follow up with another email with log-in credentials to the PR portal where you can upload photo and in-Canada address, followed by the issuing of eCOPR and PR card.

I dropped an email to etobicoke office and their response was you are in virtual landing queue. Wait.
Seems like dropping an email to them did something. Did you use the original email from when you were asked for information to create the PR portal?

Congrats! 3 months is a long wait...do you think it was useful emailing them?
Actually we came to know from some immigration consultants that IRCC stopped sending ecopr in October because their target was already complete for the year 2022( more than 4lac people were already granted PR). So they started sending ecopr in January after a break of 3 months. Hopefully it will be lot faster for you people. There is no harm in sending an email btw. All the best!

Got my ECOPR finally

Photos and address submitted: 18th oct 2022
ECOPR - 18th January 2023
What date did they use for the eCOPR effective date? The reason I ask is the next step is citizenship and you have to be landed in Canada for 1095 days as PR resident over 5 years. So the quicker you do the years in Canada, the sooner you can apply for citizenship. As a temp on visitor or work permit, you need to do 2 days in order to count for 1 day towards the citizenship requirement.
