ah right ofcoz - you're waiting for the CoPRMy application is in the same status since April 2020 (see my signature), so I would need them to complete it and issue CoPR. If they would do that I would be able to cross the border tomorrow. Unfortunately, I just called IRCC and they suggested me to apply for a Work Permit, which is kind of ridiculous. No sign that my applications will be approved before late 2021 (at best).
At times, the injustice of it all (the pandemic, I mean) is just unbearable. We're in a constant state of limbo. What did we do to deserve this? Anyway, going to try and push this predicament out of my mind for the next few months (ha, wish me luck with that)
