My parent sponsor visa is expiring after two days on 12 june, have already informed webform that me and my wife 69 and 66 years old cannot travel during covid, though landing visa expiring on 12 june, I am now planning to travel in october 2020, please let me advice what should be my next step ?
COPR and coronavirus
- Thread starter zeus89
- Start date
I don't think it would not be an issue if @saad_im gonna use private room and a private bathroom with online deliveries for food. If the house is big enough then it should not matter. He should be clear enough to convince officer that he will not come into contact with anyone in his stay for 14 days. I am thinking of those who have travelled to Canada and quarantined themselves in the same house(separate room) where their immediate family member(s) lives.

Hi,
Thanks a lot for all your help. I am in a big dilemma now.
In fact I had booked our tickets to saskatoon for April for soft landing and flights got cancelled. The cost of all five members for the air tickets was quite high and the air lines says the refund would take beyond august. The airport is not fully operational yet here and the airline doesnt have flights eaither. Seems like they would resume flights in August. Then booking before september after that , still without the refund is next to impossible. There would be a big demand for the tickets and would cost a fortune for the five of us.
And tratravelling with my kids is risky too. And that's why canada has all these quarantine requirements still in place. It's trouble toi for us as we dont have any contacts in saskatoon.
So what can we do bros.... Please share your thoughts and help.

I don't know which carrier you opted for your travel but when flight gets cancelled then you can rescheduled the booking with same carrier to a later point of time without any cost. I have rescheduled my travel with Air Canada three times with same booking on every flight cancellations free of cost. Unfortunately I could not fly due to international travel ban and my CoPR got expired. *drum rolls*
For your stay what you would have planned if there were no Corona situation? You can go for same option here too. Airbnb for a month and online groceries? I am just providing options. If you can rebook the flight with same carrier prior to your CoPR expiry on same booking reference then whats the harm in travelling? If you cant rebook or no flights available at that time then I believe this is the valid reason for your inability to travel that you can mention in your webform for CoPR extension. Wait till Aug to get some clarity I would advise.
There could be other options too. There are experts here in this thread, those can help you out.

PR card processing essentially stopped in March. There are some posts on the subject but think they are still processing February and maybe early March.
Very risky. It is unrealistic not to enter the kitchen for 14 days. Will the person have their own refrigerator, ability to take out their own garbage, wash dishes? Not realistic to get takeout food for every meal with no place to store leftovers,drinks, etc. especially during the summer.
not yet...was asking if anyone has...also is there any change in CIC profile post expiry
Quarantine rules will be in place for a very long time. Canada may actually be a safer place for your family. Extensions will not go on forever. People will need to travel while covid is still around. If countries are no longer in lockdown and flights are running the unwilling part of the extension request may no longer be an option at a certain point. Your family will not qualify for an extension until your COPRs expires. You should wait and see what is happening in the world over the next months and try to rebook your flight. It seems as though you may have been given a rebooking credit. CIC is still telling people to travel if they can. If you applied for SINP and got PR through the program you are expected to try and resettle in SK or you can lose your PR. It is easy to book a hotel or AirBnB from abroad and there are delivery options for all your food or supplies. Community organizations are even willing to pick up grocery orders if delivery is not available. It is too early to decide what will happen in such a fluid situation.
