Don’t think so for post Mar’20 CoPR as long as the travel restrictions is still there.
You may try to see if you’re able to be exempted to travel or get an AL from IRCC.

We tried to apply for AL but no news from IRCC. We’re actually very upset as it seems it doesn’t matter to them even if you have a CoPR and a confirmed essential job offer.
Thank you for your input.
I will dig some more about this.

Hi all

Just got an email today as below




Just noticed this is the first time they're clearly mentioning "Economic Class – Federal Skilled Workers (EE) application."

got this same email twice within 10 hours of getting the first one .

Anyone else got the same ?
it looks like a generic email. Hopefully some good news soon.

Hi everyone. My COPR was issued before March 2020 and it got expired in July 2020. I have sent couple of RTT web forms but got nothing other than generic replies say they have forwarded my request to responsible person. Now I have got my IMM006 form signed from my brother in Canada who is Canadian Citizen. Can someone guide in right direction and what should I do to get AL for me and my family/dependents. I will be very thankful.
Hi my copr issued was mar 2020 and expired July 2020. I couldn't travel before expiry and even flight for next month got cancelled so hanging on same boat.
Now my question is will my ielts score expires? Or I have take retest.

I don't believe you would need to resit IELTS.

Hi all,

Just sharing some good news here for all those waiting for an AL.

I just contacted IRCC this afternoon regarding my application as on early Jan, they did send me a 7pt email telling me that my medicals have been extended until April and if I was able to fly in before that date.

After responding to their email with a positive response, I did not hear back from them since and after many attempt to call IRCC with no success, I was able to do it today and bigger was my surprise.

I have been told that an AL was issued to me since Jan but it appears they have forgot to send it to me! Eh What? How is that even possible ???o_O

So now, they are tying to see if they could re-send it to me or if I have to redo my medicals or if they have to extend it again for me. The problem is that I don't reasonably see how I can fly in permanently in Canada for less than 2 weeks given that I have to leave everything, job and so on.

Any suggestions for me? Should I tell them that I am not ready to fly in less than 2weeks and willing to do remeds? I am just excited and sad at the same time! :(

Something similar happened to me. my AL was ready and their status showed it has sent ( i didnt receive it). I called them to notify them ,quite a few times.
I'd say keep your options open. If you get one ,travel considering their efficiency now. Otherwise, be ready to do re-meds and stay persistent.

Thank you very much for your input, and I am sorry to know that you have experienced the same thing. In your case, what did they finally do? They have asked you to do re-meds?

It's a very frustrating situation and they surely make you bear the burden of their mistakes or careless behaviors. :(

Thank you for your kind words. Yes, they asked me to do re-medicals.I had already done up-front remeds earlier. So i mailed them to link my IME to the new meds and update GCkey..

Same here. Received the mail twice as well.

CoPR details were removed from the account once they had sent me the remedical request.

Redid my medicals and approved on Jan 29,2021.

waiting for an update.
