sommh said:Thanks a lot. I think he missed for me. Will it create any problem later. He just put date and ask for my signature.
sommh said:He filled all info but didn't put any signature or stamp. His put only date.

They was surprised that in our case, immigration officer didn't put stamps in passports. They said "Officer supposed to do this, but they are doing on border whatever they want to do...".
But stamps with date on our COPR and signature of immigration officer was enough to make a SIN, apply for health card, open a bank account, approved a credit card application in my case in Alberta.
My advice, you should go on Monday to Service Canada and try to make a SIN number. They supposed to help you or give any advice.
Edit:
"Stamp" in my post means a stamp "Canada Border Services Agency " with actual date put on place on the bottom of page, near a immigration officer signature"
sommh said:Hi all,
I landed today and got a copy of COPR with my signature only. There is no signature from immigration officer. Is this normal? They did put a stamp in passport.
Please share your experience.
Thanks for the update. Do I need to cross the border again at rainbow bridge and follow the same procedure along with my family or there is an workaround? Please let me know how you did it?purplesnow said:It needs to be signed. You'll have to go back to a point of entry to get it corrected.
Someone else said yet didn't have a stamp on their COPR, that'll need to be corrected too. Happened me and was unable to renew my OHIP because of if. Called CIC and they said it needs to be stamped as its a legal document and I'll need the stamped version if I want to renew my PR card in 5 years.
Was very straightforward to get corrected back at the POE but annoying that the mistake was made.
Thanks again. I am planning to do it asap as without this I believe they will not update our OHIP as our ohip was issued when we came here on WP. If I plan then again I need to cross corect?purplesnow said:I was going home anyway for Christmas so just got it corrected when I landed back at Pearson.
You could try and make an appointment at the CIC office at Kipling? It's not massively urgent but it does need to be corrected so waiting a few weeks for an appointment should be fine.
