My official document for COPR came into the online account last night, one week after I received COPR. Thanks!!

I was just having trouble too. Hopefully it isn't down for long!

Did you receive the document that confirms your new status in the 'messages about your application' section? I received COPR on Oct 13 (email notification and showing in account) but have not received the actual document or any portal messages!

Update: I received COPR this morning!!! So happy, grateful and relieved. It has been less than 6 months since I applied so I was not expecting it at all. I have read that PNP sometimes leads to faster processing times, but honestly who knows after this shit show of a year for immigration. Can...

Hello Scylla, Please could you tell me if the process is the same for applying for a second visitor record as it was the first time around, or if there is anything different I need to do? My first visitor record was approved because I am waiting for my PR application (Express Entry, PNP...

Hi everyone, wanted to give info on my status in case it is helpful to anyone :) PNP Inland, AOR May 5. Received a call from Service Canada on September 24 and gave biometrics on September 25 in Victoria, BC. I was not exempt as I have never given biometrics before. Biometrics showed as...

Bump - any ideas?

Hello, I received a nomination from BC PNP in March & have applied for PR, but unfortunately I lost my job offer over the summer due to pandemic lay-offs. I just heard back from BC PNP after notifying them of the change. I am applying for positions with hopes of getting a new job offer, but I...

Okay, thanks for your reply :)

My immigration consultant said that IRCC had told the designated representatives on a call in April that there is no way for provincial nominees in Canada to be issued with a work permit (even if approved online) without going to the border. Is this no longer the case?

Does anyone have any knowledge or advice regarding work permits for provincial nominees at this time?!

Hello, Hoping to gain some clarity on this unusual situation. I received a BC Provincial Nomination on March 25, 2020, including a work permit support letter. Obviously the Canada-US border has been closed since a few days prior to that so I haven't been able to flagpole to get my work permit...

I paid the additional amount & submitted to the webform on May 5, the morning after submitting my PR application!

Update: I received confirmation from IRCC that they had received the receipt showing I had paid the fee difference three days after submitting via the webform. Fingers crossed that's the end of it... Thank you for contacting Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). We are pleased...

This is what I included in the LOE, but I am not an expert!! I am writing with regards to my application for Permanent Residency in Canada, submitted on May 4, 2020 through Express Entry. I wish to explain that I did not receive notification that the fees had increased for most economic...

I followed the guidelines below (which were not sent to me, but forwarded from a friend after I had submitted my application...) and then submitted my receipt through the webform, merged with an LOE explaining that I was not aware of the fees: Dear Express Entry Candidate: On April 30, 2020...

Thank you Diane!! Super helpful.

This exact situation happened to me. I submitted my application on May 4 (AOR May 5) and had no idea that the fees had changed - it was pure chance (and terrible timing) that I found out afterwards. I paid the difference the next morning and submitted the receipt via the webform with an LOE...

Does anyone have any advice about this situation?

Hi everyone, I just submitted my online application for PR through Express Entry yesterday (CEC with a BC Provincial Nomination). I did not receive any notification of the fee increase in my account, and simply did not know it was happening until this morning - terrible timing. I paid $1125...
