Hi, when I called IRCC one day, I was told the same that, if you are on implied status you'll have to wait until your temporary status gets approved first and then the COPR will be issued.
But, that seems not to be the case because I've seen lot of people receiving COPRs while on implied status. Later on I called IRCC multiple times to check if that's right. And they all said that COPRs can be issued even while on implied status.
Guys, any suggestions or information about this?? PLEASE HELP. IRCC call centre agents always give conflicting infos
