Requirements to obtaining PR Visa

[MeduLink]

Hi,

Im sure this question has been asked a million times before but I couldn't find anything after hours of searching, so please accept my apologies in advance.


I applied for inland CEC over 2 years ago and had to move to Germany in August. They approved my PR last week (finally) and I a letter on my profile stating that I need to send some documents to the Vienna Visa Office to obtain my COPR and a PR travel visa. the letter states the following:

4. Report Back to Us
.... please report back to us by following this checklist:
A. Submit your passport/travel document or inform us if you cannot obtain one.
B. If applicable, submit two passport-sized photographs
C. Submit a copy of your flight itinerary to Canada at least 21 calendar days in advance.
D. Inform us if you need a loan.
E. Confirm your mailing address.
F. Respond to us by one of the following methods:
....

Now my question is, do I really need to submit them the flight itinerary now to obtain my visa? I read online that I have a year before my COPR expires and I can travel to Canada anytime during that period.


Any help would be greatly greatly appreciated.


Thank you
