COPR came today

I have a question though, I have not told my wife it came yet! I wanted to surprise her and be there when she gets in from work!
Does anyone know if they will contact her to let her know when I land?

I'm looking at an image of my wife's COPR.

Under "APPLICATION DETAILS", I see the following:
Issued at: CPP OTTAWA
Issued date: 2013/08/02
Valid to: 2014/02/12

I assume the "Valid to" date means that the COPR expires by that date (she must land before that date). Is that correct?

Thanks
ki

Shorty can you give us your timeline?


I'm around the same dates and wondering when my time is coming..


Did they update your ECAS at all? Or did it go from Application Received to Decision Made?


Did your application go thru the LA office first?

COPR arrived today! At last!!! We waited over a month from when the decision was made to when we actually received it!

I do have a question though, for those of you who have already received your COPR's. It clearly states "Confirmation of permanent residence" and the letter enclosed says "We have now issued and enclosed your confirmation of permanent residence form for you....", but across the actual COPR it says "Not valid for travel". What does that mean? Thanks so much!

Congrats!

I believe the "Not valid for travel" means that it does not also serve as a visa or official travel document (like a PR card or passport). It is simply a document you need to officially land in Canada.

Ohhh thank you! I might have been having a mild panic attack...probably from the sheer excitement of finally getting our letter! Also, how do I go about getting added to the spreadsheet?
