No that can't happen. Indian Government has no jurisdiction outside an embassy or consulate on foreign land (Might differ in certain countries, but they definitely cannot rely on Canadian Police to carry out Address Verifications). Police verification, if needed, will only happen on the...

Excerpt from https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/coronavirus-covid19/immigration-applicants.html According to this, COPR holders with valid counterfoils from the US are ok to travel to Canada permanently. Can anyone share their experience ? This is a huge dilemma
