Hello Experts?

What is the normal eCOPR waiting time? is there any email ID or phone number where we can send them an email or call them to check out status? Any help would be appreciated.
if you would take cases from Oct, Nov onwards, the average wait period that I'm seeing is 45 to 60 days from PR email to COPR. But surprisingly that is a little faster for the Dec, Jan PR Conf emails.

I wish they had integrated address verification with Provincial licensing methods where the user providers the address and driver license if they both match. boom the eCOPR is generated immediately.

Curious to know if the times differ for the stream you are in as opposed to the VO.
Yes wait times do differ based on stream and VO. Generally CEC and express entry are processed much faster than PNP. But you do have cases in the reverse. That is why IRCC processing time is completely chaotic

that's a really cool thought. But after all, it's IRCC. They have been doing good only very recently. Hope they might just add something like this to make things more seamless once the decision has been made. hope they won't jinx this streak.

This is what IRCC respond to my friend. (Just because if you need written proof) :)

IRCC PR Portal / Portail RP IRCC


To: Gagan


9:51 PM


Hello,


Unfortunately we can not give you your ecopr, until you return to Canada. Once you return, please send us an email and we may continue the landing process.

Hi MSCG,

I have a similar situation here, I received my second portal email (upload photo & confirm address) Jan 17th, and I need to travel on Jan 29th. I replied first portal email to inform I will be outside Canada in that period, but still don't have reply yet.

1. Did your friend leave Canada after upload photo/confirm address in PR portal?
2. Did your friend use the first portal email to communicate with IRCC? or webform? and how long did it take them to reply?

My concern is that while I'm abroad, if IRCC did not see my email of leaving Canada, and still processed eCOPR, then I will have trouble re-enter Canada.

Please help, I'm very worried now as I don't want to miss my PR and also don't want to waste the money for the vacation.

Thank you very much!

Hi,

Did anyone have a problem with the photo in the portal after getting CoPR? It says the file is not uploaded but the photo is there if I click the option to upload it again. I tried to re-upload, but it keeps saying "File Note Uploaded". Not sure if this is a glitch or if IRCC is rejecting my photo. Please help.

Ah, you are about 1 week after me, and I am still waiting for eCOPR. My timeline (PNP-Inland):

PR Confirmation e-mail - Dec. 15, 2022 (Replied Dec. 16)
Email with PR Portal credentials - Dec 28, 2022
Photo & Address upload to PR Portal - Dec 28, 2022
eCoPR generation date - Pending
PR Card received - Pending
VO - Calgary
I also got my confirmation email on the 21st, replayed the same day, and I am waiting for eCoPR from Jan. 6th, I am also inland and Calgary.
My collogue from work got his email on the 21st and got his eCopr before Christmas. So confusing.

In my opinion, your PR should be your first priority. I mean your file is at its last stage. I was in same situation like you, i cancelled my ticket & still waiting for my ECOPR since Nov 21 but luckily I got almost full refund back from the airline. I would recommend you should wait for ECOPR because i see nowadays new approved applications getting Ecopr very quickly & you would be in peace of mind.

But if you travel is urgent then yes upload your picture & send them an email or call IRCC & let them know that you are leaving & let them know your when you’re coming back.
