Login to your GC key below applications there is option to link your application here. follow the steps and enter correct information as on your passport. If you ever ordered GCMS notes then use info from your GCMS (mine worked this way).

Hello, guys.

I'm an inland CEC applicant.
My application was approved at Mar 11, and I sent the copy of CoPR and 2 photos to Etobicoke IRCC office.

I got my CoPR while I have study permit which will be expired at June 30, and also my CoPR is valid until June 16.

I know that PR card processing time is about 4-5 months, and I expect to get it at July or August.

Here's my question.

After getting CoPR and when it is expired, can I stay in Canada without any visas?
If it's not, should I apply another visa?

Thank you.

Hi, It should be written in your COPR that it is valid for 1 year. After 1 year you must have PR card. Any previous visa or permit becomes not valid at the moment you receive your COPR if you are inland. You can stay in Canada with your COPR and your passport and enjoy being PR. You can apply for SIN, for new health card and any other things using just this COPR letter. You should apply for PR card (send them photo as requested or via portal). No need in visa anymore.

Thank you for the reply!

On my CoPR, it says that it is valid for 1 year, but on my CIC account, in Document Status section, CoPR expiry date is 2021/06/16. That is why I'm so confused.

So if CoPR is valid for 1 year, should I just ignore the expiry date?

Yes, just ignore the expiry date in CIC account. Your COPR is valid for 1 year. This was discussed several times in this thread.
