Hi All,

I am not sure if this is the right forum to post this question, but still trying my luck.

I was in WP and got my PR (COPR) on october-2021, My application has my wife and kids as accompanying. We applied PR when my family was here with me in TRV last year. IRCC sent approval notice for all of us asking us to confirm if we are in Canada and they would release ECOPR. But unfortunately my family is not here and there TRV also Expired so they cannot travel to Canada . The question is how they can travel to Canada ? Should they apply an new TRV ? or apply any special document with approval notice sent by IRCC ??

Any leads will be much appreciated.. Thanks..

Regards,
Rafi
You have to reply IRCC and get Ecopr. Then your family has to apply PRTD.

So when you raised the Webform for PPR did you mentioned that is the file processed outside of Canada or mentioned with in Canada ? And also what details you requested in webform ? As We have also raised the Webform a week ago but did not hear anything yet .

Not sure if this group is active anymore but still, thanks everybody for all the help! My spouse (PA) and I finally received our PR after 19 months :)

Below is the timeline of our struggle to PR:

TLDR: Mandamus works! PR received within a month after mandamus.


June 2020 – AOR (CEC) – Both PA and dependent in the US.

August 2020 – Medicals Passed

October 2020 – Biometrics Completed

November 2020 – PA moves back to Canada: Schedule A, RPRF request for both.

December 9, 2020 – Eligibility Passed and Background Check completed. GCMS notes indicate all passed.


Now, the fkups start

December, 2020 – Denied boarding pass: I found out at the airport that IRCC had cancelled my TRV that I got in 2017, and I was already a PR according to IRCC records! Ha!

Until March 2021 – Contacted IRCC many many times: webforms, phone calls, emails, you name it. After nearly 3 months, found out that IRCC mixed-up my UCI with somebody else back in 2017 (when I got my TRV), and only in 2020 they decided to do something, and that something was to cancel my TRV. In the 3 years, I travelled to Canada nearly 20 times without issues.

March 2021 – Applied for SOWP – refused in a week (PA’s OWP validity was less than 6 months)

March 2021 – Applied for SOWP again with PA’s BOWP [was told by IRCC that it was put on hold; no reason given]

April 2021 – Received citizenship test letter: my name, my new UCI, but somebody else’s application

May 2021 – Medicals extended for 1 year, raising hopes regarding the final decision.

Until June 2021 – Contacted IRCC multiple times, now to correct the citizenship mess up. Finally, received an apology letter.

September 2021 – Still no updates for PR application. Feeling hopeless, applied for TRV under September 07 policy. Realized IRCC created a new portal, so applied TRV again from there after a week.

October 2021 – Now, four applications in limbo: PR, SOWP, 2 TRVs. Frustrated, dejected, we reached the lowest of lows mentally.

November 2021 – Enough of waiting; now the idea was to try to stir something that would cause an application to be processed. Was suggested mandamus (thanks @Pk994) and contacted a lawyer. Started the mandamus for the PR application (chances of a positive result were given as 50%, and that was good enough for us).

December 2021 - PR approved within a month after mandamus process initiation. Portal email received during the winter break. Didn’t want them to slack, so, made sure to send them reminders at the portal emails and by morning calls on alternate days. [IRCC Calgary people were quite responsive.]

January 2022 – Spouse received her eCOPR. Kept the emails and 8 am phone calls going for PPR. PPR followed by PRV and COPR from Los Angeles VO in under a week. Landed at Toronto Pearson.
