COPR and coronavirus

[whyCorona]

I got a 9 in listening too but messed up the writing module

OMG! I believe you are eligible to travel Canada with your Listening score. They need people who listen to them at this moment.

Praying for you..

My COPR is expiring on 18th May 2020. My flight was already booked for 08th April 2020, Delhi-London London-Toronto(15th April 2020) with layover at London for 7 days. As per the current situation in Europe/UK, I don’t want to stay in London even for one day. Is there any hope if I will extend my ticket for the second week of May 2020 with the same airline (British) but with two hours layover?
Please suggest.

This is Canada:

The authorities let my building manager know about my situation and so residents in my apartment complex know as well. Every day since I've landed in Toronto, a random neighbor drops a meal outside my door, I get grocery essentials by people I've never met or seen, and notes are slipped under my door that have their Wi-Fi and Netflix logins in case I didn't have access as a new immigrant.

I've lived in America all my life, these actions have shocked me to the core. Canada is beautiful because of its people.

This is only means that God is not forsaken you..you will be fine.
I speak healing over your life, in Jesus name!

It's not clear in the latest notification. I have tweeted this question to IRCC few minutes back.

Can people update if you know the possibility to do flagpole? Thanks!!!!

In the absence of a clarity from IRCC, one can call CBSA also.

I just called CBSA. The lady said person who's already in Canada can't go to the border to validate PR. It's only for people who are coming from other countries. This is quite unfortunate.

It's unfortunate. Perhaps IRCC didn't think about such applicants. They should feel more comfortable with in-land applicants. Hope I get an answer to my tweet to IRCC.

Direct flights are the only option. Hoping and praying things start to get better by April.

Are there dirrect flights from Dubai or any other city to Canada? If ban is lifted in my country after 15th of April, I was hoping to fly through UAE, but Emirates and Flydubai offer tickets only from 30th of April. Are you guys closed till 30th of April?
Another option for me is through Delhi by Air India (Air Canada tickets are damn expensive), if India lifts it ban after 14th.
What routes are you going to use if you fly from India or UAE provided that Europe is closed?

 

[Molino de Viente]

Delhi-London London-Toronto(15th April 2020)

Isn't UK closed? Why won't you take dirrect flights by Air India from Delhi to Toronto? I am considering flying through India too.

I am obviously very happy about the announcement, and i am grateful for it.

But i'm also very pensive about the implications of travelling at this time because of the risks.

I do wonder now, how IRCC will react in regard to granting extensions if they can claim you had over a month to land before your COPR expired due to the exemption, but decided not.

Will they now say you should have traveled if i were to request an extension?

What happened to Ryan is a wake up call for me. If sharing a flight can get you infected as you can imagine being in a confined space for a prolonged time would, i'm just thinking about the risks involved more and more.

I asked for extension, no response yet.
