My visa expired due to their travel ban .So is it my fault!!They must give extension to those who are locked in their countries.Also I dont think flights will start operating from 15th April given the increase in no of cases every day.Lock down may drag uptill 15thMay or more.So u will be eligible for extension.
Nice one mate. Please share your experience. I'm flying out tomorrow. Did they examine you before check-in? What happened when you landed?
Stop freaking out and spreading panic, please. IRCC started offering COPR extensions several days before March 16th, and it applies to everyone who cannot travel due to COVID-19. You sent them webform that you cannot travel, you've done everything you could. Do not expect to get any instructions from IRCC on what to do next. Just wait patiently as they most likely do not know exact procedure for that right now and, what is more, do not have enough resources. People are sending thousands of webforms right now, some even send them multiple times. You will get the instructions when the things settle down a bit, because right now situation is still far from getting back to normal.
Have you read this? https://www.aircanada.com/fr/en/aco/home/book/travel-news-and-updates/2020/new-entry-requirements.html
Airlines are not always up to date unfortunately.
I hope you will make it though!
That post is old. The new exemptions are clear on the website and all over the news for any lay man to read. There is no travel restriction in my departure country. I have a flight in the morning. If they let me on, fine. If they don't, still fine. Not the end of the world. I will inform you all of my experience in due course. Take care, remain positive, stay safe!
Dear All,
Just a quick update. I'm an inland applicant and got my COPR 3 weeks ago.
Due to the recent news provided by Immigration Department in regards to the inclusion of approved permanent residents as part of the travel exemptions, I've called the border today to confirm if I would be allowed to flagpoling to do my landing process and the answer is NO. The agent emphasized that the Immigration Department is not in charge of the borders.

Hi everybody,
So after getting PPR I submitted our passports for Visa right before the hole thing with Coronavirus began, and now I wonder what is happening with Visa Offices, are They delivring Visas those days? Is there anyone who passes through the same situation?
