PPR Email: 20th Aug 2019
Passport delivery to CPC Ottawa: 22nd Aug 2019
MyCIC status updates to approved: 28th Aug 2019
Return tracker activated: waiting (won’t know cuz I was stupid and forgot to take a note of my return tracking number)
COPR delivered: waiting

Just FYI to CEC-inland, whose passports have less 6 valid months, I got good news: mine will expire on December 28 this year and they gave my visa (shown on account) until that date too. I didn’t renew my passport and sent it on the day I got PPR email, as they mentioned in the letter that:

“To avoid complications with international travel, it is recommended that your passport(s) be valid for at least 6 months. Your passport must have at least two blank pages.”
​

Since they didn’t use “must” for passport validity but only “recommended”, I believe I should be fine for doing that (and today it approves I was right).

Right. We should get it Tuesday. Keep in touch! Have a nice long weekend

Hi bro,

Just one question, after you sent your PPR
to Ottawa, did you get your Visa and COPR sent to you or you got your COOR after flag poling?

Yes, ofc before flag poling, if you could see my signature or previous posts on the same page.
