Hi, Any February 2019 applicant still remaining? I feel I am the only one left. It's getting stressful every passing day. The call agent says everything passed but I have yet to hear any update on DM and or COPR.

I have a question for people who received CoPR through email or portal. Previously when they use to give CoPR in person, they gave the home country passports back at the same time. What is happening now? Anyone got their home country passport back or not?

They used to provide you with your passport in the interview for CoPR before covid but now you need to request it by yourself

Hello Guys,

when I check the Ecas, it shows that I landed yesterday and my application is complete, my online account also show that everything is complete and it shows the number of my COPR. However, I didn't receive a copy of the Copr. also, I didn't get any portal invitation

does that mean I will receive the Copr by mail?

Mostly they send CoPR within 24 - 48 hours after status updated by email or through GCkey , sometimes both

If anyone can help with the whole request process or how to do this under these circumstances with no in-person appointments at all

I am yet to see anyone received PR Card with portal invitation,I thought it was meant to be 1 week project as they promised on the website..Hmm
It's one week from the time they ' approve ' the photo. What they didn't mention is that approving the photo may take the same old 4 months regular mail application loooooooool. In my mother's case, her photo has been in review for 40 days now. I don't know what's complicated about a pic. Weird and illogical system.

It's automatic. My mother goy her approval letter one day after receiving this strange letter. It doesn't make any sense but its a good sign.
