It seems Monday is not a Stat holiday in Montreal. Quebec had June 24 as a holiday so this weekend is like an ordinary weekend for them and VO Montreal work as usual on Monday. Hopefully some of us get our portal 2 emails next week.

Hi Guys, I received my first portal on August 2. Since I already have an account in the "permanent residence portal", can I move ahead, and before receiving portal 2, start submitting my photo and address? Thank you in advance.

No, IRCC will add a Permanent Residence Confirmation tab in your PR portal account. Only then you will be able to submit your photo and address.

For those of you with dependants, should we include their details along with our email? Or do we send it separately through their mailboxes?
 
Hi guys,
Did anyone receive portal email before background check completion?
In my case, I have received both my portal emails but still my background check shows this - "We are processing your background check. We will send you a message if we need more information." Does this mean PCC is still under process or completed? Quite confusing!

I did it in one email, my agent suggested me to do so.
Yes, It’s mention in IRCC instruction you got along with portal1 mail “In your reply to this email, copy and paste the template below and fill in the information for yourself and for each member of your family (if applicable). If you are not sure of the exact date(s) of your entries to Canada, you can provide your best estimate. IRCC requires this information in order for us to create a Confirmation of Permanent Residence document for you (and your family members if applicable) and to create an account for you to become permanent resident(s) through the portal.”
 
Hi All, does getting portal one mean you have your COPR? What is COPR difference eCOPR( i googled this but didn’t get the clear answer) I see COPR number in tracker. If so can I travel on TRV after getting portal 1 only? The response will be greatly appreciated
