Hi @Amy2000_2019, Have you tried emailing your local VO requesting a landing appointment and somewhat describe your story? there are a couple of emails mentioned here. It seems they also do a phone interview for landing instead of an in-person appointments.

Hi @Amy2000_2019, I suggest to check out the below topic, I think they are going through a similar experience like yours. https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/pr-inland-landing-appointments-interviews-affected-by-covid.684623/page-78

Hi @Amy2000_2019, In my view, you need to contact them and describe your situation. They may schedule a landing interview for you, or may extend the expiry date for you if they have delays in their operations.

Are you an inland applicant? if yes maybe they are trying to schedule a landing appointment which will take some time. I recall some of the inland folks got landing email instead of usual PPR. Anyway congratulation :)

Hi @Amy2000_2019, Short Answer: a few days. If it was for PPR or even ADR you should have found out by now. Have you tried to contact them to ask specifically?

Hi @Shadima, I am sure you wind up having an easier process. Have a safe trip :)

Hi @Amy2000_2019, It's more likely PPR or less likely ADR, you will find out shortly in a few days. Anyways it shows your file is moving which is a good sign.

Hi @Shadima, it would be a shorter flight and the process would be easier if you fly directly to Toronto.

They ask travelers to wear some kind of facemask for the duration of their trip. I feel 2 hours is ok, but it won't hurt to check with your airline if they would give you the next flight with minimal fee (just in case). Edits: I recall CBSA office had a phone that people were calling for...

Yes, present your address for PR Card/self-isolation in Ontario, plan carefully to have time for your connecting flight to Toronto and you are good to go.

1) The immigration formalities are supposed to be done on your first port of entry, so in your case, it should be Montreal. Then the Montreal to Toronto would count as a domestic flight. 2) It depends on how many people they have to process, the odds are that it won't take that long for you...

Hi @Mr_nobody, I hope you are well, healthy, and enjoying warmer weather under social distancing.

Hi Amy, they are working but probably with a lower capacity, so they'd be more waiting for everyone. I hope you're doing well otherwise.

Congratulation :), thankfully you have enough time on your hand for planing. Definitely one month deadline would be really challenging for anyone to get all his/her ducks in a row.

Both are the same thing. Every now and then, they upgrade the language/appearance of online account like adding the progress bar, etc.

Hi Amy, I am sorry but I have not heard a similar case, but I have heard of one person with pr who recently got visa in 2 months for attending a conference.

Hi @Mr_nobody, I heard some successful and few unsuccessful stories. As far as I know, the exemption is solely limited to F, M, and J visas and for people who were physically in US on or after September 24th, 2017 (all types). The Canadian PR applying from within Canada is eligible for a waiver...

Congratulations, It is such a relief to get PPR :)

Hi @Mr_nobody, I know I have until the expiration of COPR for landing, but I was wondering how late it is safe to complete the landing? Do you think is this something that I should do asap?

Thank you very much, I will try to check here every once in a while and share my experience. BTW this is my 100th post here :)
