Ya you are right this thing also makes me piss off i dont know whats the logic behind this rule.You have the same questions i had. They don't reply them because they just follow the instructions.
I am lucky in one thing - my COPR is valid till October. But still I can't work as I have closed work permit and lost a job, my daughter needs to apply to the University. But THEY DON'T CARE!
Nobody replied how my dependent will get to Canada without my validating status, they don't know.
That's why I'm saying that kind of discrimination has a place. Because we are treating not like the other applicants without reason. I'm just curious if mass media know about this unpublished demand to have all defendants in Canada?
I still have time to wait but I have no idea when this stupid situation will have any sence. Closed borders, no flagpoint, closed offices, no pr email but they get huge salary staying at home and doing nothing while someone like me wants to work to stay alive.
I do apologize for emotional message but I think we all understand each other like nobody else. Let's stay in touch and update if any changes.
My COPR is also expiring in October but i am not sure too that how much time it will take.. Did you try calling IRCC customer care? If so what did they say?
Dont apologize i can understand as i am in the same situation and my wife is away from me and after all the paperworks we are stuck in a formality of pr thats so frustrating .. Sure please stay in touch and let me know if you get any further news and will do the same too!!
