Reopening of applications

[Krish121089]

Hi all,
I have a doubt regarding the following statement from CIC.

"Reopening of applications
Once the applicant has informed IRCC via the Web form that they can travel, the application can be reopened for re-approval provided the applicant and their family members, whether accompanying or not, have passed immigration medical examinations, criminal and security checks and have valid passports".

I am already in Canada on a visitor Visa. It's an outland application. Last update was medical passed on February 2020. Do I need to inform my VO about this so that they can finalize the application if everything is completed?
I am aware that I can send my passport to Ottawa for stamping and also I can book an appointment in IRCC office for landing interview inside Canada.
Please advice. Thanks in advance.

No - you don't need to inform the VO. Your application is still in progress and hasn't been finalized.

These instructions are for those whose applications have already been finalized and who have a COPR.

Thanks for the response.
Below are the notes for COPR if I am not wrong which is given in that article.

Approved CoPRs and PRVs
Applicants for permanent residence who are in possession of a Confirmation of Permanent Residence (CoPR) or Permanent Resident Visa (PRV) must inform IRCC, using a Web form, if they cannot travel before the expiry date of the document.

Files will then be processed according to an applicant’s specific circumstances.

Those with valid COPR and PRV and who are unable or unwilling to travel must inform IRCC so a note stating their situation can be added to their file. A reminder must also be added to the file related to the expiry date of the document. If the event the applicant becomes able to travel before the expiry date of the COPR and PRV, they will be encouraged to use their existing document to land in Canada.

Individuals whose COPRs and PRVs have expired and who have informed IRCC of their inability or unwillingness to travel prior to the expiry date of the document will have their files re-opened and reviewed within 90 days.
