Yes, I called VAC Office and they told me that the process ended at the embassy closest to the VAC office. In my case, the closest VAC office in Lima is the Embassy of Canada in Lima, Peru. So the process will be faster. We already buy tickets.
No, you don't need any other travel document. My husband had his COPR, passport plus our ARRIVECan info and Marriage Certificate but was only asked for COPR, PP, and ARRIVECan info.
His COPR arrived on Oct. 22nd just before noon and we flew out on Oct. 25th arrived in Vancouver, BC on Oct. 26th and are in quarantine until Nov 9th.
He did get detained by US Immigration for 3 hours for absolutely no reason because he has a valid US Visa for 10 years. They never asked one question just made him sit for 3 hours for nothing while they watched the baseball game and then the soccer game next. We missed our connecting flight and the one after that so had to rebook them. We are never going through the US again!!
Anyway, all will be good once we are done with quarantine and get on with our lives. Good luck to all of you still dealing with this lengthy process, it will end, honestly!!

Thank you. We are shocked. From complete silence for just shy of a year to PPR in two days.

Just wanted to ask if you had ordered notes before, and if you did who is your secondary office? I see Mexico is my primary and Havana my secondary which is strange I think. Thx

I did not order the notes. This is the strangest thing. The last update I received from Mexico in August was that my file was "in queue waiting for an officer to review it". So there wasn't much point in ordering GCMS as as far as I knew there would have been no notes.
24 months coming up nov 15 wife is Cuban and step son . When is this going to end . Please god
I feel your pain waiting 22 months and wrote to the mp and all I got was they having started eligibility. And that Mexico got hit by covid and u know the rest
I think we have the wrong officers working on our applications. Since feb nothing at all cant even update my husband's biometrics it still shows havent received. And the mp was no help, but I must say they answered me right away and did not take long to give me some information from Mexico, although it was useless to me.
