1. Why did they refuse it for you wife or Kid ?
2. How long did they took to provide the letter?
Your request to be exempted from the current restrictions to travel to Canada has been refused under the COVID-19 Emergency Orders in Council (OIC) pursuant to section 58 of the Quarantine Act.
Based on our assessment of the information you provided and the information in our system, we have not found that you meet the extended family member exemption. In particular,
Please note that if you already possess a valid visitor visa or electronic travel authorization (eTA), this refusal has no impact on your travel document, and is solely a refusal of your request for written authorization which you require to travel to Canada while the travel restrictions are in place. If you do not already have a valid visa or eTA and have applied for a travel document, this refusal for written authorization does not have an impact on the processing or on the decision rendered on your visa or eTA application.
As you are not exempt from the restrictions to travel to Canada, you should not plan or undertake any travel to Canada, as you may be prevented from boarding your flight and/or entering Canada.

I am assuming this letter is for your wife and kid. Letter for you should say approved. Your wife and kid might not qualify as per the definition of extended family member.
If they have approved your travel Why don't you travel alone initially that will complete your landing formalities and you become a PR.
Your Family member can travel a week after without a written authorisation as they are immediate family member of a Permanent Resident (you)
Something to think about.
Thanks

Yeah I am thinking it as well to travel myself and complete all the landing formalities and then my family come after.. but there is one thing that I heard people with valid copr might still come under travel ban even if they have travel exemption from Ircc in writing.. I don’t know how true it’s..

I wonder if it's okay to send follow-up email. Sent the IMM0006 form on 27th Nov and until now got no reply. Thanks.
They would have checked those conditions while issuing written authorisation.
Any link where someone had issues with valid copr and written authorisation.
@Gsingh2016 : Looks like you are not the one of case. They are issuing Travel Authorization letter for COPR (after 18-Mar) candidates with extended Family members in Canada. But they are only issuing it for extended family member not their wife and kid.

Yeah i did not see any post from after March Copr holder travel with exemption letter ..
One of my friends has a COPR issued after March 18th and is travelling this Tuesday. He received authorization email weeks ago and also his ok to board from Qatar Airways two days ago. He shouldnt have a problem landing, but I keep you updated after his land
And I have a question for you. I emailed for exemption twice since yesterday but did not receive the acknowledgement of receipt email for my request. is it normal? because my friend told me he received the AOR email for exemption promptly
Good to hear that. Please keep us updated. We are eagerly waiting to hear about your friend's travel.
I got the acknowledgement. Please check your spam folder for the date you initially sent it. also verify the email id is correct.
