Yes. Shouldn't have any issues with that. Might be a good idea to explain that you are applying after passport renewal. They might give you a new TRV with validity till your PGWP expiry or even until the new passport expiry.

Congrats! Your application is about to be finalized. It might take a few business days to a week for the COPR number to show up on the tracker.

Yes. If you live outside of Ontario, the Svo will be Montreal. Montreal has an automated queue for portal emails and you’ll receive Portal 1 email a few days after the FD date shows up on GCKEY. If you live in Ontario, Svo will be Etobicoke and might have to wait a bit longer for portal 1 email...

What's the COPR expiry date on the tracker? You'll likely have your eCOPR (actual PR confirmation document) before the end of January or February.

The BOWP needs to be approved, and you need to receive a physical copy of the work permit before you can extend OHIP.

You should be able to extend your OHIP once you receive your work permit document. It'll be extended until the expiry date of the permit. BOWPs are generally granted for one year.

If you get the eCOPR while you are outside, your current permit and TRV become invalid. You'll have to either apply for PRTD or enter by land via the US border (if you have a US visa and the eCOPR). You can reply to the email and let them know your travel plans. They may hold your file until you...

Better to call IRCC and ask them for clarification. It's not worth taking risks with this and working when you may not be authorized to work.

It's fine. Eligibility matters only for the primary applicant. You have to call IRCC and ask them for the PVO and SVO.

You can try. Some of the agents are helpful.

Send them a webform detailing your travel plans and attach your flight tickets. They might expedite the processing.

WES got my transcripts in April and processed them in a few weeks. If you have someone in Chennai, ask them to follow up directly at the transcripts office. That helps speed up the process.

Upload the Citizenship certificate for Proof of PR/Citizenship and upload the Canadian passport for Proof of Status. The driver's licence does not seem to be the right document for Proof of Status. The rest seems fine.

Yes. It is better to apply for BOWP as the PGWP expiry is so close. Once you get the eCOPR, you can ask them to cancel the BOWP application and get the fees back (if they haven't started processing the BOWP by then).

The speed of getting portal emails depends on the SVO (Secondary Visa Office). It can vary from days to weeks.

You can call IRCC (1-888-242-2100) and ask them for the PVO (Primary VO) and SVO (Secondary VO). SVO is the one that sends the portal emails.

PRTD processing time is around 60 days on average
