COPR validity

[purplesnow]

Hey guys!
Received my COPR today and just have a quick question. I understood the validity was either a year after you complete the medical or your passport expiry, whichever comes first. However, the validity on mine is until May 4 2016. My passport expires in 2020 and I completed my medicals on April 16 2015. Do I just assume that my medicals weren't submitted until May 4th? Even though the e-med that I submitted clearly stated the date of my medical exam in April? What I'm really asking is, do I have to get this changed before I can land?

The clinic probably uploaded the medicals on 4th May - it does take them about 2 weeks on average to do that. I imagine you don't have to change anything here.

Congratulations again!

I was thinking that, but at this stage I'm questioning it all!

I sent it the 14th, they received it the 16th, I had the COPR on the 26th. I'm visa exempt though so they only needed a photocopy of my passport.

Tbh purplesnow, only someone who has their COPR can confirm this and most people usually don't come back to the forum after having one.I don't think it really matters if you are landing before then tho. All the best
