With the Government of Canada announcing further public health protections at the border, processes are being introduced to support enhanced family reunification, entry for compassionate reasons, and the safe and gradual entry of some international students.
The Government of Canada is deploying additional public health officers to ports of entry and strengthening quarantine monitoring to aid in the fight against the spread of #COVID19.
Certain extended family members of Canadian citizens and Canadian permanent residents will be eligible to travel to Canada. This includes people in a long-term exclusive relationship and their dependent children, adult children, grandchildren, siblings and grandparents. Detailed information for extended family members, including the process and requirements, will be on the IRCC website on October 8. Travellers should not make any travel plans until this information is available and they’ve received proper authorization.
Foreign nationals travelling for compassionate reasons, such as a life-threatening illness, critical injury or death, will be eligible to enter Canada with limited exemptions from quarantine, subject to the approval of the provincial or territorial government. On October 8, information on how foreign nationals can request entry to Canada with limited exemptions from mandatory quarantine for compassionate reasons will be available on the Public Health Agency of Canada website.
Updated travel restrictions will take effect on October 20, 2020, to allow the entry of international students to Canada if they will be attending a designated learning institution with a #COVID19 readiness plan approved by their provincial or territorial government.
Reminder that all travellers must have a plan to quarantine for 14 days upon arrival in Canada, unless they’re exempt.

It is me that san naam is referring to, I think. I got a Service Canada call in Edmonton AB today—I believe they have just opened. AOR Aug 18. I'm sorry. I don't know why they are not calling in order. Soon for you all, I hope. All the very best.
Hello everyone, been following this group as a non member of the forum, but had a query so this is first time I am posting from my account. Thanks @legalfalcon & @caipsnotes for your help to everyone.
My AOR is March 12th and June 9th MEP.
Recently called the IRCC call center. They said my eligibility is passed.
They also said last update was around mid June probably (didn't hear this properly, could be June end)
Is my eligibility recommended passed (agent) or passed (officer)? Any comments based on just the timeline of events?
Also how positively should I take the update (if) it is recommended pass?

Got called last week, did biometrics on monday in Calgary. Lady said Edmonton office is still closed, even if my nearest SCO is Edmonton. Said yes to the Calgary office. AOR is 17th March.
So when you come in and out of Canada, there's only three official documents that are recognized as identification for a Student/Foreign Worker/PR/Citizen
Student/Foreign Worker: Permit (Study or Work)
PR: PR Card
Citizen: Passport
You'll need to have one of those when you come back in the country. The only option for a PR with no PR Card is to get a PR travel document but that has to be applied for when outside of the country and I have no idea how long that takes. I'm just going to assuming a long time because IRCC, am I right?
https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/application-forms-guides/guide-5529-applying-permanent-resident-travel-document.htmlThe only exemption to that rule apparently is if you're entering Canada in a private vehicle (I'm assuming you're not getting married in the states). A rental vehicle is not considered a private vehicle.
Hope that helps!
Put an e mail to your representative that you will link your account . Create your own GC Key account and link the application .
