Not relatives, immediate family.yes relatives will be allowed
1. No, spouses and dependent children,Hi,
Can anyone please confirm if maternal Aunt or first cousins are considered as immediate family.
Thank you.
Parents of adult children are not considered immediate family by IRCC, so probably not.Can a mother of a PR holder travel to Canada? kindly suggest me as the flight is after 2 days...
Even I am in the same boat. I and my wife have resigned to our jobs last month and were supposed to board the flight tomorrow (19th March). Now with the borders getting closed, we are in a very big soup. We have vacated our home in India and made stay arrangements in Toronto as well. This step will take huge toll on our finances as well as we have no source of Income in India now.The situation is a mess right now... Which is normal considering these exceptional circumstances, however there is a serious need to address the case of CoPR holders.
My plan was to relocate by mid-April. I have sold my property, both my wife and myself have resigned from our jobs, children not registered for next school year. While we understand the current situation, what are we and probably thousands of CoPR holders supposed to do while waiting for the borders to reopen? We are not tourists, we are future Permanent Residents. I am not planning to do a landing then leave, I am planning to settle in Canada. This CoPR is the result of a year long project and there is no information at all on what we are supposed to do. It's simply not fair to put us in the same basket as tourists.
I really hope things will get clearer in the coming days...
Same here. We are residing in Kuwait. We suppose to travel on 24th March. My husband and myself resigned and myself and son have only temporary visa until first week of April. We took TC for our son. My husband residency cancellation is in process could not be completed due to government offices in Kuwait are closed. Even Kuwait airport is completely closed until March 29. Moreover canada border also closed for us. This is worst nightmare came true. Now we need to apply for an extension. After 6 years we got this COPR and it expires on May 5th. Hope everything will be ok soon.The situation is a mess right now... Which is normal considering these exceptional circumstances, however there is a serious need to address the case of CoPR holders.

This is what I am getting from all information available on their website. However, I am in a situation where I can travel to Toronto, as in there are still daily flights to Canada where I live. That being said, as a CoPR holder who can take a flight to Canada, would I be allowed to board a flight and allowed entry into Canada?Others can comment as well as this is only my interpretation of the IRCC information but if due to the travel restrictions someone with approved COPR cannot travel then they are supposed to submit a web form explaining the situation and a note would then be placed on their file. See link below

Again my interpretation, extracted from below link, but if you are not immediate family of a citizen or if you have resided outside of Canada or US in previous 14 days you would not be allowed to board a flight as per link belowThis is what I am getting from all information available on their website.

I am not getting any clear answer to that question. I have filled a form same as everyone else, but I am fairly certain it will remain unanswered for a few weeks considering the volume of emails/requests they must have received in the past 48h...
