Scenarios of non-optional travel (you can come to Canada)
IRCC offers three examples in which a foreign national would be exempt from the travel restrictions and permitted to enter Canada:

• Scenario 1: A foreign national has a valid work permit and currently resides in Canada. Even if the person does not currently have a job in Canada, they can still enter the country since Canada is currently their primary residence.
• Scenario 2: A foreign national has a letter of introduction for an open work permit, has a valid job offer, and will be able to work in that job upon entering Canada.
• Scenario 3: Similarly, a foreign national has a letter of introduction for an employer-specific work permit, with a valid job offer, which they will be able to pursue upon entering Canada.

But in our case we don't have work permit , we have COPR and PNP was approved we have job.

Hi All,

The current status of my profile changed from 'APPROVED' to 'SUBMITTED' this morning.
My old COPR details have been removed.
Review of medical results now says - You do not need a medical exam. We will send you a message if this changes.

My VO is OTTAWA.
My COPR & PRV Expired on July 07, 2020.
I raised 3 webforms, in OCT, NOV and DEC.
Country of Residence: USA
I have not been asked to do medicals again yet.

I do not know the next steps and the timeline from here on. Have read mixed stories on this forum to draw any conclusions.

Any insights on the next steps appreciated.

Thanks

Same here.Any updates?

Yes they do and they don't check your GC key but instead they confirm it online somehow. There is person who denied boarding with AL because his CoPR was not updated online. He also posted his experience in this thread. However in few days he got CoPR updated and on second attempt he boarded successfully.

So you need to have new CoPR issued online in order to travel with AL.

We can't take printout of this new COPR but account showing new record'

Please let me know is it mandatory to take printout, if yes, how we will take printout.

Thanks

It's not mandatory. Just do print screen of webpage. The new CoPR has a document number which can be referred if someone asks for it. Tho chances are less.

alid upto 1 year from the date of remeds

AL received over the email just few mins ago with 2 months validity.

Congrats ! I have a query in my case. COPR approved Jan 2020 and VO is Ottawa

I have got a re-medical request and also an email with a set of questionnaire asking me to respond within 10 days if I can travel to Canada within 60 days. The email also says

"If we do not hear from you within 10 days, we will assume that you are not able to travel to Canada within the next 60 days. Your application will remain open and placed on hold until after the travel restriction pause is lifted or until you demonstrate that you meet the criteria above."

Does this mean IRCC is giving me two options. Either I respond to the email and don't go for re-medical and travel within 60 days or don't respond and get a re-medical done and have a year long COPR validity

I too received this email but I got no response or AL. After exact 60 days they told me to redo the meds.

You have given two separate instructions to follow.

Your meds might be expired or expiring soon. So it's better to redo the medicals now to save time later.

If you are ready to travel then respond to the email within 10 days with all the required information. Make sure to have solid quarantine plan.

Also, in parallel redo the medicals.

Best wishes!

Solid quarantine plan means?I have mentioned that I have talked to an Air bnb host and his place is available for quarantine.Is this much ok?What did u write?Are all ppl who are getting remeds are getting this 4 pt mail too?As I have never got any 4pt.Direct remedical req in online portal.I am afraid after 1month of submitting remeds will they send me this 4 pt only to waste one more month.Though I have already answered all these answers in my webform along with proofs like bank pof ,air ticket options,my sons admission letter etc.
