PPR delays due to covid-19

[Zittj]

Hello everyone,
Please I just need your advice (your two cents) on this : I have a valid Canadian visitor visa which is valid till August this year and also at this time waiting for my PR approval. I am exempted from the travel restrictions because my brother is a permanent resident. Now, my confusion is this: do I travel on my visitor visa now, then inform IRCC on change of address to Canadian address and wait for my pr approval while in Canada or should I keep waiting for the pr approval here in my country (my visitor visa might expire while waiting here)? Please what do y'all think?

Hi everyone,
I'm outland FSW applicant, AOR : 29-11-2019
I received a response to a web form in April saying that a decision has been made
yet the next two web form responses in May were only indicating that my application is still in process
accordingly, I ordered GCMS notes and got the following
App status : open . Reason : in progress
In assessments section,
Eligibility : Passed
Criminality : Passed
Security : blank with S.15(1) at the top right corner
Medical : Passed
Info sharing : complete
Final : Approved
-----------------------
In finalize application section, counterfoil and COPR are generated and updated on 30-4, but status is not started
In Organization & Entities2 : CN COVID PACE, Pending Findec.

Did you get any update yet? I'm in the same boat.

This US-Canada borde extension announcement. No announcement yet for other countries but for sure expected to follow suit.

Predictable, hope 2022 will be a good year for immigration.

2022 will come back to the norm. But I am expecting the travel restriction to be eased for PR applicants without family connections in Canada by June/July.

Canada is scheduled to vaccinate 50% of its population (15m people) by June and the rest by September. If the vaccination works as expected, there's no reason for them to continue restriction after September. Hopefully, they add us, PR applicants, to the exception by mid year.

That’s what we all are hoping for too. Fingers crossed!

I came across this news. Think of these people.
Canadian Government is super slow and it seems they dont have any absolute plan in place.
Things are going at snail speed and I think they dont even give a damn to people, who are just waiting for getting the clear picture.
They're just inviting even more people but the end result is big fat zero i.e. no PR.

In 2022, people will hope for 2023.

People will pray the year 2020+k+1 will be better than the year 2020+k every year, until "Covid restriction is lifted".

Will Covid restriction ever be lifted in our life? LOL.
