Hello, I received my COPR (valid until Oct 2022, 1 year aftter medical). I got married after receiving the COPR, and have informed IRCC about it and asking them what my next steps are.

A.) How long does it usually take them to reply? It's been about 6 weeks and I haven't received a reply from them.


B.) If it takes IRCC a lot of time to process the addition of my spouse and it reaches the expiry of my COPR, will I need to do my medicals again?

Thanks for any info you can give guys.

If you have received COPR pls go land in Canada and start the spousal sponsorship. At this point your application has been approved and I doubt any officer will look at it again. It may happen but have it in mind to land before expiry so that you don't lose your chance
@monttaal - I warn you to stay away from this advice. This is absolutely wrong advice. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO LAND IF YOU ARE MARRIED NOW after receiving COPR. You have done the right thing by informing IRCC about changes in your marital status. You just need to wait for them to respond. You can find enough threads on same topic, one which is this - https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/marriage-after-copr.608391

This is horrible and wrong advice. If your advice is followed, this person will never be able to sponsor their spouse. Please do not post such misinformation that has the potential to ruin someone's life.

We don't know how much time it will take. But doing medicals again is better than landed and NEVER be able to sponsor your spouse.

You should get email to get medical for your new spouse. They will issue you with new COPR.

I have a somewhat relevant question. I was an in land applicant and received my eCoPR a few days ago. My application for the card is also submitted (I think it means I've landed virtually, please correct me if I am wrong). My partner and I will become common-law by the end of this month but she is already a Canadian. Do I still need to inform IRCC about this?

NO. you don't. You have already landed as a PR. So you do not need to update your marital status change.
