Hi
@Aliasoufan @$R27 @sh221b @idhar_chicha @BillyWescott
I was given a remedical request on 8th March 2021 and re-did on 9th March. Passed it on 13 march. No update till 5th april [sent so many emails, webforms, raised technical issues etc]
Finally on 5th April, my GC Key account showed that I have passed my remedical and status changed from Action Required to Submitted.
But today, I receive this email [Pre 18th March COPR and NDVO]
Action required by April 29, 2021: Confirm that you still want to immigrate to Canada
April 19, 2021
Application number: ******
Dear permanent residence applicant:
You are receiving this email because our records at Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) indicate that:
- Your permanent residence (PR) application was previously approved and is now closed.
- The issuance date on the Confirmation of Permanent Residence (CoPR) document that was sent to you (and your family members, if applicable) was March 18, 2020, or earlier.
- You (and your family members, if applicable) have not become (a) permanent resident(s) of Canada yet.
- The validity date on your CoPR(s) (i.e. the date by which you needed to use it to become a permanent resident/to travel to Canada) has passed, meaning your PR visa(s) is/are expired.
- Any previous immigration medical examination (IME) results for you (and/or your family member(s)) have also expired.
|
When a PR application is approved, PR visa holders are required to travel to Canada to become permanent residents before the expiry date on the CoPR document. Once a CoPR expires, applicants are normally required to submit a new application if they still want to immigrate to Canada.
However, on an exceptional basis in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, IRCC has made various efforts to assist clients who, due to the pandemic, were not able to use their CoPRs before they expired:
- Until December 2020, it was possible for clients with expired or expiring CoPRs to contact IRCC to request assistance if they were ready to travel to Canada right away.
- IRCC may also have contacted you by email already to ask whether you and your dependants were willing and ready to travel to Canada.
- Where possible, IRCC has re-issued PR visa documents electronically and has sent clients Authorization Letters to facilitate travel with expired documents.
|
Action needed:
Once we have sent you the forms, you will have 30 days to do your medical, advise us by email that it has been done, and provide any requested documents. Please note that the results of your new medical examination will be valid for 12 months.
Important: Do not do an up-front medical examination. Completing a new medical examination before IRCC asks you to will delay processing, and may lead to you spending more money to do a new one later on.
Your Application:
If you confirm that you are still interested in immigrating to Canada and that you would like your application to be re-assessed, IRCC will do the following on a one-time exceptional basis:
- Reopen your application and review it to determine whether any additional or updated documents are needed to confirm that you (and your family members, if applicable) still meet the statutory requirements for (a) permanent resident visa(s).
- Send you new medical forms and instructions, and also a request letter if we require more information or updated documents (e.g. valid passport, updated police certificate(s), updated screening forms).
- Review your application to confirm whether you still meet the requirements for a PR visa.
- If you still meet the requirements: re-issue your PR visa(s), which you will need to use before the new expiry date.
