Once you’ve received your signed eCOPR (Electronic Confirmation of Permanent Residence) in Canada, here are the next steps to complete your PR process:
IRCC will usually initiate the PR card process automatically once the eCOPR is issued. You should receive it in the mail within a few weeks. You can check the PR card application status in your IRCC portal or online account.
2. Update Your SIN:
• Visit a Service Canada office to update your Social Insurance Number (SIN) with your permanent resident status. You’ll need to bring your eCOPR or PR card once it arrives.
3. Update Health Coverage and Benefits:
• If you are in a province where health care is linked to your PR status, visit your local health authority to update your coverage (e.g., OHIP in Ontario). Bring your eCOPR, and PR card if you have it, to ensure you’re covered as a permanent resident.
4. Update Employment Records:
• Inform your employer of your new status to update records like SIN, employment status, and any benefits eligibility.
5. Driver’s License and Other ID:
• Some provinces require PR status updates for licenses and provincial IDs. Check your provincial regulations to see if any updates are needed.
6. Banking and Financial Services:
• Update your status with banks and financial institutions. This may open additional options or benefits as a permanent resident.
7. Keep Your eCOPR Safe:
• The eCOPR is a key document proving your status in Canada, so keep it in a safe place. Photocopy or scan it as a backup.
Thank you @Miss bee

What does PVO and SVO do? Do they both decide for the application results?
Thank you
In the context of Canadian immigration (CIC/IRCC), PVO (Primary Visa Office) and SVO (Secondary Visa Office) refer to the visa offices that handle different aspects of a PR application, depending on where it was submitted and the applicant’s country of residence.
PVO (Primary Visa Office)

• The PVO is usually the main office that receives and initially processes the application. • It conducts the preliminary checks, including completeness, eligibility, and initial background checks like criminality.
• If any additional documents are required or if the application requires further checks, the PVO may initiate that request.
SVO (Secondary Visa Office)
• The SVO typically handles tasks that require closer examination, often involving security screening, more in-depth background checks, or complex verifications.
• Sometimes, SVOs are closer to the applicant’s country of residence, so they may be better positioned to verify documents or conduct checks.
• In cases where the PVO passes parts of the processing to the SVO, the SVO may make the final assessment on certain aspects of the application.

• The final decision is often made by the PVO or whichever office has the application at its final stage.
• However, if the SVO performs the final checks or security verifications, it could also have input into the final decision.
In essence, the PVO manages the application initially, and the SVO may handle certain parts. Both offices collaborate, but the final decision usually rests with the office that completes the last required check.

Hello @Miss bee - Please enlighten me. I want to be sure I'm not missing any step. In the tracker it says " We sent you a message with instructions on how to submit your fingerprints and photo. Please complete this by the date shown in your message." However, on my main account login it with GCKey, no other message aside stating my UCI #, Application and Biometric start and Finish Date which means the previous one I did is still valid. And other icon below states:
  • We do not need your fingerprints. We will send you a message if this changes.
  • You do not need a medical exam. We will send you a message if this changes.
  • You do not need an interview. We will send you a message if this changes.
  • Background check
    • Not applicable.
  • Final decision
    • Your application is in progress. We will send you a message once the final decision has been made.
Tracker and GCKey page seems contradicting.
Please note: Medical I did 2022 was submitted via webform before receiving AOR.

Is this normal and I'm not missing any d
