Hi Guys,

I completed my application on 8th Jan 2020, Biometrics done on 27th Jan still awaiting COPR. Is there anyone on the forum who are seeing this kind of delay in the approval process. There has been no request for additional documents or any kind of update from ircc. And on sending request for application update via webform i got standard response that they are still working on the application.
Do you think i should be worried or has the covid situation affected the immigration this bad?

Thanks
Still in much better situation then many of us.
No need to worry. Be happy.

Hi, what happens if the return label from FedEx that I have sent expires? I have sent my passports towards the end of October to Ottawa, but there is no update yet. The return label expires end of December. What should I do if it gets late than that? Will they ask for another return label? Will it delay the process again? Or will I be able to extend it?

Refer #12230 for my response for his questions.
I did not receive any 4-pointer email but as I saw so many people posting about in this group, I thought I should act proactively and had submitted all the relevant documents when raising the initial RTT webform.
Thanks @SameeraR !
Yes I did exactly the same as you; raised 4 RTT with the travel/quarantine plans upfront. And I'm pretty much along the same timeline as you. So keeping hope mine might turn around too.
When does your medicals expire? Mine expired in Aug-2020 and thinking of doing an upfront medicals too before they ask in the last minute.

I am in the same boat but Vancouver VO? Heard nothing about it.

@13nitinsharma Do you have any news about Ottawa or Vancouver? Thank you
For Ottawa, this week, applicants are receiving "Action Required: Are you able to travel to Canada soon" email which confirms your medicals have been extended and confirming if you're able to travel.

For few Ottawa VO applicants (who submitted new medicals), their status of application has been changed to "submitted" and new medicals have been updated too.

For Vancouver, No update.

Does it make any difference if it shows approved with expired COPR details? That's where mine is stuck at right now
No clue. Mine has moved back to in progress with no progress lol. Trying to see if anyone is in a similar situation like mine and how they are trying to tackle the problem.

The label won't expire. When it is scanned, the information will be updated.

Any progress from Ottawa VO? I have raised multiple ready to travel web forms but haven't received anything June expiry anyone in the same boat?
My file is also in Ottawa VO. COPR Expired on June 25. I have submitted RTT just once and have got the generic reply. Is the Ottawa VO operating normally? It shouldn't be taking this long.
