You'll get yours soon Ms. Creampop. Have faith it'll get here somehow.
Here's my timeline from PPR TO DM AND COPR.
PPR OCT. 12
Sent PP Oct. 16
COPR issue date Oct 26th.
DM Nov. 1
Received PP, COPR, and other documents Nov. 19
Total wait time: 5 wks
If you don't mind me asking, what kind of time frame did they give you to land? (by a certain date?) and you have to make an appt to land, right? Cant do it without then, im guessing? Im such an amatuer.. lol

OK from reading the letter they enclosed with the CoPR you can only make an appointment and land at the local visa office as long as you have valid status in Canada, if your visa has expired you must go to the closet point of entry and land. This actually answers the question I was worried about if my passport was lost as I am only legal until Dec 19th. My CoPR is valid till April 10th, 2013 one year to date of my medicals. but if your passport expires before your medical then it will be the expiration date of your passport.

My advice: get thee to a POE and quickly... Tomorrow could be a good day to do so, since few Americans will be traveling.
