What was your status updated to on the tracker once you got the P1 and P2 email?
Yeah. I'm also wondering how long after P2. There are some people waiting from November and December for eCOPR, not sure what their application date is. There also seems to be a pause on BGC completion/P1/P2 for Mid May onwards.
They haven't updated the status on the tracker but send P1 and P2 once the background check is done. Never thought it would take months for these things, but one of the threads say there is a huge backlog. My assumption is that they just slowed things down intentionally to be align with their planned quotas

I am currently undergoing a background check and won’t receive my eCOPR before my tuition deadline on March 14. If unpaid, I may lose my student status.
I have a few questions:
I have a few questions:
- Can I apply for an Open Work Permit between March 10–14?
- What documents are required for applying an Open work permit?
- Since my inland application is handled by a lawyer, can I apply using a different IRCC account without informing them?
- I have a work permit tied to my study permit and am doing a co-op. Can I continue working while waiting for my eCOPR or Open Work Permit approval?

You're 1000% correct and these are unionized employees. They have no incentive to work faster; considering many of them are going to be laid off they want to make this as painful as possible.
Yup, we are all feeling the pain. Everything stopped mid-May.
1. typo. I think you mean 100%
2. There are new lower immigration quota to be applied in 2025 and I think that's more likely the reason.
3. Even if the call centre employees will be let go, I don't think they are trying to make you painful. They probably won't go the extra mile to try to find out more info other than what they are told to provide and have access. And according to the news, majority of the numbers to let go would be contracted jobs not union jobs.
Many who got their p2 in Oct are still waiting for eCOPR. They are holding off "landing" to make sure that they don't exceed the lowered target...
1. No I mean 1000%. Hyperbole.
2. I don't understand the sentence. Terrible grammar.
3. See #2
I'm an April 2024 applicant but my timeline is probably closer to the May applicants, because IRCC chose to let me know that I have to re-do my medical exam after background verification is completed, which set me back for a month.
Now my new medical got a pass two weeks ago, so all four sections of my tracker are completed. However, I haven't got final decision or COPR number yet, and there has been no update since two weeks ago.
If anyone's on the same boat, please feel free to share. Wish everyone waiting good luck!

Here’s the breakdown:
P1:
Will get it after all the stages are completed - this is the initial email from IRCC when your PR application is approved. You’ll receive an email asking for confirmation of your email address, your presence in Canada, when you last entered Canada, height, eye color, and more. You must reply to that email with the requested details to proceed to the next step.
Purpose:
This step ensures that IRCC can set up your PR Portal account.
P2:
This happens after IRCC sets up your account in the PR Confirmation Portal. Then you go to the PR Portal (that you used to submit the PR application), then you upload a photo for your PR card, declare your physical address in Canada where your PR card will be sent and confirm that you’re currently residing in Canada.
Once you complete the steps, IRCC will review the information. Then you will get the email that your Electronic Confirmation of Permanent Residence (eCOPR) is ready and able to download in the portal. Then PR card arrives at home.
Hypothetical scenario here.
P2 is declared and eCOPR received. Wife takes off to Singapore, and I DHL the PR Card to her there. Unless... Do they make the applicant sign for the card or is it just popped in the mail?
For inland, at least in my case, the card just arrived in an envelope in my mailbox. Didn't sign anything.
That is what I figured. The eCOPR is the important indicator. Thanks for the information.
