Received PR card, please take a look at my timeline if you'd like for the whole process, took about 8 months for us total from start (submission of application) to end (PR card received). We're outland US-Canada for context, he visited me so the rest was done through virtual landing (all processes in the timeline). I hope you all luck in the world and hopefully your waiting will end soon. Best of wishes!
What is virtual landing? My Medicals are all done, background in progress. I am from the US and am going to stay with my wife on visitor record while I wait for copr. Is that possible?
 
My Timeline:

Paper Application

I have a lawyer as representative. Does anybody know how will we get COPR and PPR?
I think PPR comes as an email to lawyer and COPR via?

Received Passport request email from CPC Mississauga dated May 8th

Very much possible, that's what my husband did.

Virtual landing is when you're outland and don't want to wait for the rest of application outside of Canada.

To do a virtual landing you would need to go in as a visitor (hardest part would be convincing the officer that you will leave if your application gets rejected,,, thankfully for us there was not a lot of questions asked and we were allowed to go our way) and once you receive your PPR, that's when you'd send from a Canadian mailing address which would be the sponsor's address. From there they will send you portal information to verify you're in Canada instead of sending a physical COPR and needing to go to a port of entry, they will send you e-COPR on the portal which you'd be able to print out which will verify your virtual landing and PR status in Canada.

That is good to hear, hope it will al work out. Will I need to change my address with ircc when I arrive on the visitor record or should I leave it the same?
