Hi folks! My CoRP expires on May 29th. Now Japan has declared state of emergency and I can’t find direct flights to Canada. Im still have a flight to Canada booked (São Paulo - Toronto) but due the countries restrictions I can’t flight to Brazil. I bought another one (Tokyo - Toronto) But it has also been canceled.
My question is: When should I raise a web form to let them know about my situation and ask them for a extension?
Thank you all!
Stay safe. Stay positive!

Send a web form now so that you are registered in the system as currently not able to travel, do not wait until just before expiry, that makes no sense given unlikely travel will be normal for months

Why do we need to send one after expiry?Unless we are able to fly I don't think we need to send web form after expiry.Others pls clarify!

If your application's final status is changed from approved to In progress then it is an indication that your application is in review for you to tell when you are able to travel. In this period there is no point of asking for extension as they have already considered giving you an extension. This is as per the process shared by IRCC for extension.

I've still not heard anything back for my SIN number application unfortunately.

I managed to link my PR card on the portal however this has not provided me with any updates or new information, it's coming on three weeks since I landed however obviously the PR card processing times are probably out the window at the moment.

HSBC were fine to open the account without a SIN number and I am just to email the manager once I have the SIN number. Obviously the SIN is an issue for earning money at the moment and I'm not sure how quick this online process will be either way.
Not sure if you are aware, but the link to online application has been down for the last few days. Hope they process our online application submitted 10 days ago.

This is perfectly aligned with Canada's travel ban till 30 Jun. Let's hope this virus settles down in June and July.
It’s banned until June 1 from air canada .... not until June 30 anyways I would have been expecting That from India .... suddenly banning the travel make foreigners stuck in that country is ridiculous decision ever

As far as I know some Americans opted to stay in India despite of evacuation flights. Only NRIs and PR holders want to leave India in this COVID19 situation.
