COPR and coronavirus

Does anyone know if we are allowed to use land border after april 22 - renewal of land border restrictions. I am trying to find the page on their website.

So this was one place :
https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/news/2020/03/canada-provides-update-on-exemptions-to-travel-restrictions-to-protect-canadians-and-support-the-economy.html

But I can't find the original or a new page. It used to be in a "Q and A" format like a FAQ.

Exemptions to the air travel restrictions will apply to foreign nationals who have already committed to working, studying or making Canada their home, and travel by these individuals will be considered essential travel for land border restrictions.

The exemptions include

• seasonal agricultural workers, fish/seafood workers, caregivers and all other temporary foreign workers
• international students who held a valid study permit, or had been approved for a study permit, when the travel restrictions took effect on March 18, 2020
• permanent resident applicants who had been approved for permanent residence before the travel restrictions were announced on March 18, 2020, but who had not yet travelled to Canada

If you look @prusa previous post you will see that I have been providing correct advice. People are supposed to travel if they are able to travel.

NO THEY ARE NOT

NO THEY ARE NOT

I agree with CanV 100%.

For those who wants to enter US, so US immigration ban order is released, it bans immigration not temporary vizas.

Cant we change the email ID by login to the GC Key account? I think we can update the email ID in the "account profile" section.

I really don't know as I never had access to my profile.I have asked my consultant to give me details.

Just call IRCC agent and ask for your application status. You have your UCI and Application number in CoPR. Use that as reference. Consultant can fill the webform he is just acting up.

So this means in-land applicants whose applications were approved before March 16 can now do flagpoling, right?

U had filed urself or thru any agent?Was ur email id linked with ur application?
The ircc agent told that my consultant's email id is linked with my application and if I want to receive the emails directly I will have to fill another web form for changing the email id.She has mailed me link too.What should I do?I think I should change the email id. Any suggestions pls?

I am glad to know your file has been updated! I think you should send the web-form asking to change your e-mail address. However, I would preliminary call to the agent again and confirm, if it will not cause any confusion afterwards (i don't think it will, but it is safe to check). It is so inconvinient to depend on a consultant just to be able to track status of your application.

Exactly.I feel same.

I have already filled the web form. Its not that agent can not.I mean he refused to fill it.He was not interested in helping me with this matter.Said you will have to do it urself.Wow !!I mean as u gave got all ur fee so your job is done!! I just didn't like his approach so I am thinking of doing all future correspondence my self.But at the same time I am afraid that it should not create any confusion and I should not miss out on their mails.Has any one else ever done this? Changing the contact from consultants to self?
