Hey guys, I just received the CoPR in PDF format, but since it is taking too long (more than 3 months based on your comments)., how can I change the address for delivery? (I have to move out from my current address soon).

Could you please send me the link where you were told that cannot travel when having COPR, because I have copr too and I'm planning to travel soon. your help will be much appreciated. Thanks

Please refer the 2nd page of CoPR. it clearly mentions the following :

If you leave Canada without a permanent resident card, you will have to apply for a permanent resident travel document through a visa office. Otherwise, you will not be able to board a commercial vehicle (plane, train, bus or boat) to come back to Canada.

yes - work permit will be invalidated.
You cannot travel on the COPR since as soon as the COPR is issued, you work permit gets invalidated. The only other option is to apply for one time entry PR Visa at the Canadian consulate in the country you are visiting. Unfortunately, I was told that it would take the same amount of time as a PR card.

It would really help, if you could share the link where it is mentioned that work permit and TRV gets invalidated as soon the CoPR gets issued?

Also it looks like getting PRTD(in India) is faster though it includes extra cost and burden of documentation.

It took us around 1.5 months to receive the pr cards. However, I called IRCC three days after landing to update the address. The online form didn't work. I thought it was amazing to have received the cards that quick given the current situation.

Keep an eye on the emails though. In case if you need to resubmit PR photos, they'll notify you via email.

That is amazing!
Did you receive your card recently? and which is your visa office?

Hey guys, I have received my eCOPR on June 24,2021 in Vancouver. Applied as inland and have been waiting for my PR card since then… is this normal? Should I be raising a concerned to IRCC?

I would appreciate if someone can help me out. Thanks
