Hi guys, just to share the new rule for travelling to Canada after you receive your new COPR. Fully vaccinated travellers might skip quarantine after 5th July if they meet all requirements. See link below...

https://travel.gc.ca/travel-covid/travel-restrictions/covid-vaccinated-travellers-entering-canada Looks like you can if you fly after 5 July.

April 2022, a year after the re-medical date.

I thought we have 90 days to update the medical? Don't worry about it, it is normal for physician office to take 10 working days to submit. As long as you sent IRCC the acknowledge letter or anything that shows you are working on it you will be fine. I think they are quite flexible with it...

Hi guys, So i received the physical copy of the new COPR. There is a remark mentioning: This document replaces the client's previous confirmation of permanent residence document which was issued on or before March 18,2020. I guess that says all, you are free to travel to Canada with the new...

That's great to know. Thanks for asking and updating us here. My COPR online copy didn't mention anything about it but I hope the actual physical copy is different. I will receive it on Monday so only a few more days to find out.

Yes i think that is what i will do regardless when i travel. Thanks for the info. :)

I hope that is the case. It is just they say " Until further notice, most foreign nationals cannot travel to Canada if their valid CoPR and PRV was issued after March 18, 2020, unless they are exempt from the travel restrictions." Obviously my new one is way after that date...I have emailed...

Hi, sure. Timeline: Original COPR issued: Dec 2019 COPR expired: May 2020 Re-medical request: 15 March 2021 Medical done: 9 April 2021 Medical passed to IRCC: 23 April 2021 Document request: 14 May 2021 Document sent: 18 May 2021 New COPR issued: 20 May 2021 VAC is located in London, UK. VO...

Hi guys, So I have received my new COPR, which is really quick. I sent my documents through to VAC on Tuesday afternoon,VAC processed on Wednesday afternoon, IRCC received my documents this morning (Thursday) and I have already received an email notification with new COPR after just 4 hours of...

Hi, see the link: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/coronavirus-covid19/immigration-applicants.html#expired If we approved your permanent residence application and we issued you a COPR on or before March 18, 2020, you’re exempt from the travel restrictions...

I saw the last statement in my previous email too, when they asked me if I was ready to travel. That all make sense now. I submitted my documents yesterday. Hopefully we both get it soon. I will confirm once I receive my new COPR too. Thanks :)

I always thought I need an AL even for pre March. I didn't realise once I have a valid document I can travel without restriction. I just checked the government website to confirm the info and you are absolutely right. Thank you! It is very useful. I might be able to go earlier than I thought.

I would like to know too. Would be great if I can fly from the UK via the US to Canada.

Hi I am a Pre March COPR holder. I was requested to do a re-medical on 15 March. Did my medical in April and passed on 22 April. I received my PPR request on 14 May. My visa office is in London. I think every office is different and Ottawa might be a busier one. You should receive yours soon.

I am a pre-March too. This thing has been dragging for so long and my friends are bored of me talking about moving to Canada :D It would be great if you can let us know what happens once you receive your new COPR. I wonder if we have to wait until the restriction is lifted or do we need to apply...

Thanks for the info. The letter says visa exempt applicants with online account can upload photocopy of passport page and the letter via online account so really the only physical thing I need to send is my photos. Now you mentioned it, I did remember having to include a pre-paid postage...

Hi guys, after submitting my re-medicals I received a request to submit docs before issuing a new COPR. The thing is I don't need a visa to get there and the only doc I need to send via post is my photos. Previously they provided the actual mailing address, however this time they asked me to...

Hi, sure. Below is the exact quote: Option 1: Confirm that you plan to travel to Canada before the validity date above. You will be sent a request to submit your passport to IRCC for physical reissuance of your CoPR (and your PR visa, if you are a citizen of a visa required country). Your CoPR...

I just replied today. I expect they will send me a medical request (within 90 days according to the email, but certainly hope it's going to be quicker than that) and I will need to re-do it. My COPR expired in May 2020 though, so I am not sure if you can reference this. I will update once I have...
