I’ve just received the same response...THE SAME. My CoPR is going to expire on April 21...just waiting a proper confirmation if they will give me an extension. This uncertainty is killing me.
I've received the same response today.

I received the same one (my COPR expires April 12) and we are attempting to cross at a land border on the 10th as we really haven't heard anything concrete from IRCC.

The only thing I think is that they are sending the same response to everyone

Hi,

Anyone traveling to Toronto post April 14th lockdown from India? I don't have tickets yet and don't know what to do at this point.What flights are the best option for traveling?
Hi,

I have re-scheduled my British Airways flight from 08th April to 16th May. It’s Delhi- London and London-Toronto with layover of just 2 Hours at London.

I also got the same reply for the web form I generated 2 weeks ago.I think those who had filled web form in 1st week of March or Feb have got better personal response.After 15th March may be they have got heck busy so sending automated replies But at least we know they are working on it.

Guys yesterday my son who had applied for computer science in UBC got an offer.Now I do not know I should be happy or I cry as my copr has expired .Now if they reject my extension (which should not happen though)It would be the biggest loss for my poor child and us.As I can not afford to send him on student visa and I do not want to miss this golden opportunity either.Really stressed.Any one who thinks they might reject the extension.May be I am getting too impatient but this admission news has made me really insecure.God pls do the best.,,

Personally, I think all of us are getting too impatient.......which is quite normal.....we should get extension considering the magnitude of crisis.....and refrain from submitting multiple webforms.
As far as communication that is coming out from IRCC
1. Already they posted on their website few weeks ago, regarding expired or expiring COPRs and how they will be dealt with.....may be they haven't shared finer details...but at least they are aware that many will not be able to travel and their COPR will expire
2. High Commission of Canada, India has already posted on their facebook page that they will contact impacted COPR holders.
3. Even the replies that have come out recently as shared above, are assuring and comforting

Yeah that's right.Rajiv's approval also is a ray of hope.But still insecurity is normal ,I think, though might be unnecessary.But yeah will now always think on positive lines that worst case scenario they will ask to do remedicals .They are obviously not going to reject the application all together .
Thanks for the comforting reply.:)

but it sounds little positive, and tells that will give exact answer as soon as possible.

before they just shared the link.
Let’s wait a bit more, but could you imagine if the visa expires before they give an answer and then they say “we won’t give you an extension because you were able to fly”?
