Landing Question

[gimmeThatPR]

Hi Everyone,

I got my Permanent Residence visa stamped which is a single entry visa and I got the COPR along with it.

My visa expires with the validity of my passport which is August 2014.

My question is

Can I visit India on and come back to Canada on that single entry visa?
Also Do I need my passport to be valid for certain amount of time to enter back in canada?

Thanks

1. Yes, you may transit visas from other countries if you are not flying direct.
2. No, you can "land" on the last day of the validity of the COPR, but I wouldn't cut it that fine.
