To the best of my understanding: The expiration of outland CoPR is the date that it can be used for landing (ie to be signed at Canada entry port). Until landing, the applicant is not PR yet (becomes PR when CoPR is signed). For the inland applicant, it only matters until the eCoPR is issued...

Hi yes, same here, I and the kids had oath last week. My wife is still waiting for DM. My DM was last Nov.

You have to be in Canada to take oath, even if it is virtual. According to the information on this forum, there are no exceptions.

Update for pr card renewal application: We received your application for a permanent resident card on March 11, 2022. We started processing your application on March 31, 2022. (+DM) Your Permanent Resident card was sent by mail on April 19, 2022. Received in the mail today Apr 25. Location: GTA

Ecas will only be updated tomorrow morning (next business day). Try after ~8:30 EST. You can try to link in gckey, this should work already today. But in gckey it will only be "submitted" even if decision was made.

For the option of "your valid passport or travel document" (meaning also not expired), I included just the biometric page - see the note what it needs to show. (I got DM in ecas) Don't forget to include the photocopy of PR card (both sides) as you renew. This instruction may be difficult to spot.

Response with links waits for moderator review. Here is a copy without the links. I guess because in this case the application was actually registered by the agent, it appeared in the system. So what I did: 1. I tried to link it in gckey but using options without the application number...

Renewal

Application received: Mar 11 AOR: Mar 31 DM in ecas: Mar 31 [updated next day, no date in ecas] We've got 3 out of 4 AOR emails, but could successfully link all 4 applications in gckey and ecas shows them all. Sent in one package.

All should be here: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/application-forms-guides/guide-5445-applying-permanent-resident-card-card-first-application-replacement-renewal-change-gender-identifier.html I suggest you read those instructions through and...

No, I don't think there is an online option for renewal PR application.

For yourself, the rule actually says: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/application-forms-guides/guide-5445-applying-permanent-resident-card-card-first-application-replacement-renewal-change-gender-identifier.html#appendixA If you have been a...

Someone mentioned somewhere on the forum that some info should be typed exactly as the officer would put it. Not sure if it was for linking pr card application or something else... Could be capital letters etc.

Same here. Can you update when you get your AOR?

The backlog is a bit larger than at the end of 2021: https://www.cicnews.com/2022/03/immigration-canadas-backlog-grows-to-1-84-million-0323476.html#gs.uto74w As of the end of February 2022, the citizenship inventory is 453,265. This figure includes all prospective, mailroom estimates and...

It seems the excel hasn't been updated on this thread. I went back to ~mid Feb and updated ~10 rows total. So now it's on 52% for DM and 42% for Oath.

You cannot use visitor visa issued before - you need pr card or prtd. The other option is to come via US in a private vehicle - then you can show your expired pr card and the officer will check that you are meeting your residency requirement.

Quick search on this forum shows a couple of mentions of this office code, but it doesn't seem there is an answer to the question what office it is.
