Hi everyone.....I just received a new counterfoil number with a new expiry date in my online account and my application was listed as approved. My COPR and visa was issued pior to March 18th 2020 and I couldn't travel due to the pandemic and my visa expired. Now.... is there something else i need from IRCC before travelling OR do i just need to show the air lines the new number and fly........not sure what to do at this point. Futhermore, My passport wasn't requested for another visa stamping. the new visa number was just issued on my online account. Do i just need to show this number at the airport before boarding? Please advise. Thanks...

Folks, my account has been updated with new counterfoil details. Yeah, old details are also there. Passport was received by IRCC on December 30 and new details are updated on January 7. Strange part is medicals passed date is still the previous one but new counterfoil has same expiry as the new medical validity.
Check my signature for timeline.

@13nitinsharma @crackMBA @whyCorona guys can anyone please tell when can i expect my AL.2 days ago my online account got updated with message that I have passed my medicals.I didnt do remeds.my copre expired on may14th.
There is no specific timeline. I have seen people getting AL as early as 10 days after acct update and as late as 45 days after acc update. So no specific timeline but seeing the current trend, you should receive it soon.

Do not panic. Getting a new counterfoil is a good sign. Just wait for few days you will receive an AL. With AL you can fly.

Hello,
I'm also in the same boat as people above.
COPR Expired: July 2020
Received only generic replies for RTT webforms.
No 4, 7 pointer emails, no remeds no PPR.
Now I've my counter foil updated till 27 feb. Still I've not received anything in email from IRCC.
What could be the next possible thing in my scenario bearing in mind I haven't received any remeds or other emails.
If they are to issue a new AL how long could it take them to email me.
Thanks

Hey I got an update on my IRCC account .They have updated my COPR counterfoil details only till Feb 27th, 2020.So will I be receiving an AL or passport request?.How long will it take to send a AL or Passport request, because I only have a month to travel ? @13nitinsharma @whyCorona
Were you asked to do remeds?
Did you receive 4 or 7 pointer email.
I'm on the same boat as you, but i didn't receive any 4 or 7 pointer email nor the remeds request.

Hello @legalfalcon and @13nitinsharma,

I would like to ask if I should email or use a webform in requesting for a AL. I am an extended family member with PRV and COPR. My mother and sibling are PRs who are currently in Canada. Thank you in advance!

thank you, does this mean I don't need visa stamp on my passport not even expired? I saw that people whose COPR has been expired are bing asked to bring this letter, with your original COPR and PR Visa wherever in my letter I have only "bring this letter"
Please read your AL email carefully. I would suggest to wait for a week, raise a webform and call IRCC regarding CoPR updation. After that plan your travel accordingly. You are post 18th March 2020 approved application then not sure if airlines would check your CoPR online or not. But its worth to do some homework prior to flying.
