Hi, yes you can enter Canada through the US-Canada land border as many times as you like until you receive you PR card. I just came back from Mexico last week and I flew out of Buffalo airport using my eCOPR to enter back into Canada.

This website confirms that you can do what I stated above.

Yes, a rental car is considered a personal vehicle so you can use it to enter Canada via the US land border using you eCOPR.

Hi Lanis,
I received my CoPR on June 18, 2021. Visa office is OSC (Ottawa). It's been 9 months and still photo in review with IRCC:) I sent webforms and called IRCC numerous times. Didn't help at all. I have been checking my f. mail box every single day for PR card since then. Guess what? Nothing.. Hard to be calm but still trying. Good luck everyone.

Hi Kursat, after 301 days of waiting I FINALLY received my PR card! have you tried speaking to your local MP office? They kept me reasonably up to date and let me know my PR Card was on the way. Hopefully it's very soon as you and I received our CoPR at the same time. Fingers crossed!

Do you have a US VISA? As far as I understand, with your COPR you cannot enter the US unless you have a VISA, but for returning to Canada the COPR is valid.

Yes, I have a B1/B2 visa for the US. You will need one if your passport is not eligible for a visa upon arrival to the US.

Ok great...that's what I thought.

I have a visa interview for the end of May. Hoping to travel to my home country from the USA and return to Canada via rental car with copr.
Of course, that is if my PR card doesn't arrive before that.


COPR approved Feb 17 2022
Photo in portal still under review.....address was accepted on March 7th

I uploaded my picture and address on April 28th and got the eCOPR on April 29th. The picture is still in review. The GC Key application shows approved.
Will there be a new status somewhere once the PR card is shipped?

I have seen few mention that photo is under review. After photo is approved the pr card will b dispatched. This is my understanding.
How many days did it take to get the ecopr?
