I will be traveling this week from US.
Hotel is not mandatory, you just need a place to stay without interacting much with other people.
You need a place living on your own or a place where others will be quarantining with you or you don’t have an acceptable quarantine plan.

Just wanted to ask whether ur airlines have updated u about ur flight.Will it run as per scheduled??If yes that would be great for us .It would be great if they start intern flights from June as we can raise another web form for being able to travel.And can get new docs.Keeping fingers crossed.

Hi akrapovic,
did they revisit any eAPR questions, Like the question of whether you have ever been charged of a crime or offense?
Also, can you tell me more about the health assessment they are supposed to do now. Did they ask you any health questions?
I appreciate you sharing your experience, I will be landing soon and I want to be prepared.
They didn't ask any questions like this but I had to sign the form which states that I haven't been charged for any crime etc.

The only question regarding health was if I have any covid19 symptoms and that's all. It's been over a month since I crossed the border so some things might have changed.

I followed the instruction on the PR letter, which is to send CoPR and photo to a specific IRCC office. It's pretty straight forward.
Thank you for the reply. few more questions.

1. Did you sign the physical COPR document (IRCC Copy) before sending or send it as it is?
2. You only send the IRCC copy or client copy as well?
3. Also, did you send any extra photo or the photo which is on the IRCC copy is enough?

Hey guys,
are we supposed to answer "No" to the question about application processed outside Canada? Because I sent a webform about expiring visa with a "Yes" to the question.
Should I raise another webform? The visa doesn't expire until May 24th?
I sent a webform answering No to that question since it says if you are impacted by COVID19 than answer NO.....don't know the difference it makes....our visa expires May 26th.
Did you get any response to the webform you have created?

You will only get more than an automated response after your COPR is expired. It could a few weeks after the COPR expiry date due to the volume of requests and the duplicate/triplicate/etc. emails and webforms.

Just want to stress to people that this doesn’t mean that you can extend until years from the now when a vaccine is available. Hopefully it will be faster than a few years but at least another year would be a fast timeline. At a certain point you’ll need to travel. Being in Canada is much better than being in some other countries in terms of getting access to healthcare.
