[Emergency Situation]
Hi all,
My CEC PR application is under process and all of 4 steps (biometric, medical, elegibility, and background) on tracker shows complete. It also shows the COPR number and its expiry.

Unfortunately my mother's health was not good so I fly back to my home country on urgent basis without valid visitor visa. So for going back i need to apply for visa which take 2 or more months.

My question is there any possibility for getting COPR or Passport request for PR visa stamp on my passport. What should I do now. I am super stressfull please help!.

PS: My wife and kids are still in Canada.

Same situation. In my end, it will expire next Month already but no response from IRCC. I asked them multiple times tru the webform but no response. So now what I did is to apply for an ETA (i’m from a country which ETA is allowed) and I will be testing my luck if our Immigration and the Immigration of Canada will accept my reason of Visit

Do you have dependent. If yes, then did they get the eCOPR?

Appreciate your reply. I already submitted my passport together with the dependents including the PPR letter. Let's see how it goes from there. Thank you Taran.

Hi shygirl888,
My situation is similar to you
AOR: 23 May 2023
Final decision: 3 October 2023
Portal 1 email: 20 Dec 2023

I am outside Canada with expired TRV. I explain in Portal 1 email. My question is can you please share your timeline so that I can estimate that after Portal 1 email how long it take to get the PPR.

Hi mani1984,

Here is my timeline:

AOR: April 22, 2022
Portal 1: September 13, 2023
PPR Letter: September 30, 2023
Submitted PPR: October 11, 2023
ECOPR: October 20, 2023, upon receiving the Immigrant Visa

I replied in the portal 1 email and was advised to do it and explain via web form. I explained everything about why I was back home in the web form and after 2 weeks, I got the PPR letter asking for our passports and submitted them to the VAC center. Got our visas on October 20, and we are all here in Canada now. Upon arrival, we don't need to submit or email back to portal 1 as the immigration officer submitted all the forms for us. We just got our PR cards last week.

Let me know if you still have further questions so I can help you.

Thank you and good luck.

Thanks for your answer!
Do you mean that if I come back to Canada within a few weeks after I get the portal email, I can just confirm my presence in Canada as if I never left Canada?
Hey Did you came back to canada and replied the first mail confirming you are in Canada ? Also, after how many day you replied to it ?

Hi again shygirl888,
Sorry to bother you again. I got my p1 on Dec 20, 2023, and I replied on the same date but I don't know why the visa officer didn't receive it. Then I again got the reminder to submit my response on January 27, 2024. I replied again the same and also told them that I couldn't travel back to Canada as I expired traveling document. Also, I raised the webform. For the webform, I got a reply on Feb. 7 2024 that the visa officer received your response on January 27, 2024.
Yesterday I also raised another webform to get the update on my file and request them to expedite the remaining process. Now I have a question and need your suggestions I also applied for the visitor visa on Nov.13, 2023, as I valid BOWP, and still I haven't gotten any decision on that visitor visa. Do you think if I asked the IRCC to cancel my visitor visa application as it's already delayed too much and maybe it affects the remaining steps of the PR application (like PPR) would be a good step toward the PR application completion?

I am facing the same challenge or confusion...I did mention I am outside of Canada when responding to the first email. However, I was still getting the 2nd email and it provided me the portal credentials.
Furthermore, when I login into the portal there are NO other ways around to state I am outside of Canada, all I can do is confirm I am inside Canada and upload mail address and photo, and I only have 7 days to complete the whole process on the portal.

Can anyone who already got instruction from IRCC on how to handle this kind of case share your experience? much appreciate!

I am at the same point right now now.
Please, guide me. What happened after you declared you are not in the country and they sent second portal to submit photo and address. I have same situation. I said i am not in canada still i got inland process portal only. Your reply would be appreciated.
And also let me know how long it took to finalize from this point.
Thank you
