I might be interested on advice regarding intra company transfer @Amanmasih , have you gone through one ? I am a COPR holder (Post March) with a Canadian work contract from my current company here in Australia (international company with office in Canada), and I am thinking of maybe applying for...

Unfortunately not, this article is from March, quoting that March letter that @Klaverveld talks about... So nothing new on that front since then.

I see... Then in my case I am not sure they would consider me eligible: even if I say that my reason to go is to work there (which is true), the fact that my company is based in Australia, and that I am French with only temporary visa here that is expiring in a month, and that other than family...

Yeah that's where it becomes a little blurry for me: how do I "prove" that I intend to leave Canada at the end of my work permit when in fact I already have a COPR and know perfectly well I will become PR as soon as I land.... It doesn't make sense to me, I am confused :x Do I buy a return...

I received some vague answer from the my local Canadian Immigration Department here in Sydney, and yeah they recommend going through a work permit if I have a work contract (saying they are not expert regarding the land crossing conditions from US). But here's my question @legalfalcon : isn't it...

Understood, thanks for the explanations mate !

Wow that's pretty scary ! I always thought that if they let you board the plane, and if you reach the Port of Entry, as long as you have your COPR, you'll be fine. It seems not ! Hum I definitely do not want to reach Canada "illegally"... On the other hand, if their website says we can come as...

Thank you for the link, it is very interesting indeed... I get your point about US residency, and not necessarily US citizenship, but I don't see any mention of residency either, like @JayTheGreat mentioned... But yes, I think you are right, I will just have to decide if the risk is worth it or...

Whether it is on this page: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/coronavirus-covid19/travel-restrictions-exemptions.html#other Or in the tool to determine whether you can enter: https://travel.gc.ca/travel-covid/travel-restrictions/wizard-start There is no mention...

Congratulations @sunkilmoon ! Bold of you to try it that way ! Did you have to go through the land border ? Or you could have taken a flight too ? Did you have to stay any duration in US at all ? Did they ask you at the border how long you were in US ? My temporary visa in Australia is running...

Bummer... Well I am trying to have a friend in Canada call for me and ask. Hopefully he can get clarification for me. I am a French citizen living in Australia on a temporary visa that ends in June, so it gets pretty urgent for me.... I was hoping that with a visa expiring and a Canadian...

Thank you for your answer, but are you certain ? I mean there is no mention of being resident of the U.S. in this page anymore, and I'm pretty sure it used to be specified. So I wonder why they removed it if it still only concerns U.S. residents... On the main page for the travel exemptions...

I think even before COVID, if you have a COPR, they would still say it does not guarantee entry into Canada, just because they always leave the final decision to the border agents. I might be wrong though...

Hey Guys, I took a look at the "Find out if you can enter Canada" again a few days ago, and I noticed this: To the question "How do you plan on entering Canada?", I see the option : "from the United States (including connections, so long as you enter Canada from the U.S.) " Is that new ? I...

I received the same email too. I sent a webform a few days ago to ask if I could get an exemption from travel as my current visa in Australia is about to expire, and was wondering if that was the (generic) answer, or just a coincidence: @nathan2020EE and @jatinder161088 did you guys sent a...

Hello everyone, I posted this in the May 2020 thread, but I thought maybe some people look here for a "Ray of Hope" :) I seem to have received the golden mail :D I received the "Ready For Visa" email that asks me to submit my passport... so I think it's all good ! :D Now left to see is how...

My VO was Sydney, NS (ironically !)

Hello @Chintan31, I just received my PPR as well and will soon send all the documents to the VAC of Sydney, can you tell me how you did that ? Did you send the passport or just photocopies ? Did you go to a photograph for the pictures, or just at officeworks or something ? I remember when doing...

Hello everyone, I seem to have received the golden mail :D I received the "Ready For Visa" email that asks me to submit my passport... so I think it's all good ! :D Now left to see is how long Sydney, Australia takes to process the visa (between 4 days and 3 months they write, talk about an...

Wow congrats man that was quick ! I am a French citizen but I am also residing in Australia, and my AOR is from May :x Hopefully your application means some things are moving... Please update here when you receive your Passport back, I'm interested in the current delays Congrats again !
