I’m not sure about days to have to reply to portal 2 email but if you reply and declare everything online to portal email 2 and leave country after that and if you get Ecopr while you are outside Canada, you won’t be able to return with your temporary visas you have because they get cancelled once you receive Ecopr. You have to apply for PRTD to return back to Canada. For how long are you leaving Canada?Hi guys, I've received Portal 1 email. Do you know how many days you have to receive and complete Portal 2 process?
I'm in Canada now, but in 16 days I have to leave for 2 weeks. I would complete Portal 2 once I come back, but not sure if it possible.
Or I need to accept everything, upload photos and then just come back by land at Canada - USA border?

ADR June 23 (exactly the same as you)
Under review since July 7 and nothing since then
Yes you can return by land if you got Ecopr in USA. You just show your signed ECOPR when returning back to Canada to CBSA officer and they will let you in .
What is Signed ECOPR?
And how they going to create Portal 2 for me if I already have it, because I applied non-EE Online for PR?
So basically first portal email is in which they ask for your email, uci number, height, first entry to Canada, latest entry date to Canada, your address. Second portal email is where they create your account and give you password to go online on portal where you sign in and upload your photo, address. Once you upload that you will get Signed document which is called Electronic Conformation of permanent residence. That is actual document when your status changes from temporary residence to permanent residence.
Confirming your permanent residence online
If you got an email about the Permanent Residence Portal, it’s legitimate if
- it came from an email address ending in @cic.gc.ca
- it’s in both English and French
- the subject line is “IRCC - Permanent Residence Portal (PR Confirmation) / Portail de résidence permanente (Confirmation de la RP)”
- it links to this page
- without in-person interviews
- through a secure online portal
Through this portal
- you can declare you’re in Canada
- you can confirm your address
- you can submit a recent photo we will use to make your PR card
- we can give you access to your proof of permanent resident status
- you can share personal information safely
As the principal applicant, you’ll act on behalf of your family, unless you tell us you’d like them to have their own accounts.
The portal is separate from your IRCC secure account.
How the portal works
If we approve your application, we’ll
- send you an invitation to confirm
- your email address
- all email addresses for each person on your application
- you’re in Canada
- create an account for you (you can’t create one yourself)
- send another email with your temporary account details
- sign in for the first time and create your own password
- choose the Permanent Residence Confirmation tab
- confirm you are in Canada
- provide an updated home or postal address
- upload your photo (this must be a digital or scanned photo, not a picture of a paper photo taken with a camera or phone)
We can’t confirm your permanent resident status while you’re outside Canada. If you plan to travel before receiving your CoPR, contact us using the email address on your invitation message.
Once you upload your photo
- we’ll review the photo and accept it if it meets the requirements (this may take some time)
- once approved we’ll send your PR card to the mailing address in Canada you gave us
- you can check the PR card processing time
- you can check to see if we’ve accepted your photo through the portal.
Uploading and submitting photos
If we return your photo, you can resubmit a new photo into the portal. Make sure the new photo meets all the photo requirements listed in the portal before you upload a new one.
Reasons your photo may be returned
- photos are too dark
- background is not white
- facial features not visible
- glare on photo
- measurements are not between 715x1000 and 2000x2800 pixels
- file size is above 4MB
- other reasons – see photo requirements for details
- make sure you’re in the Permanent Residence Confirmation tab at the top of the page
- choose the “upload photo” button
- your photo can be
- a professional digital photo in JPEG or PNG format
- a scanned professional photo (don’t take a picture of a paper photo with your digital camera or phone)
- a selfie (as long as it meets the photo requirements – submitting an incorrect photo will delay your PR card)
- follow the directions in the photo editor window to position and crop your photo
- click the “apply” button to validate your photo
- your photo will show in black & white
- you can edit and replace your photo with another photo up until when you submit it
- you don’t have to delete the previous photo to upload a new one (it automatically replaces the previous photo)
- check the Declaration box and click “next” to upload your photo
- if you get a warning message that your photo doesn’t meet the requirements but you want to submit it anyway, also check the Acknowledgement box and click “Next” to continue
- press “submit documents” (once you do this, it can no longer be changed)
An immigration representative (also known as an immigration consultant or lawyer) can give you advice and help you with the portal for a fee. But they can’t
- sign into the portal using your username and password
- declare that you’re in Canada for you
- If there are any issues with the PR card process, we’ll contact you directly.
- If you didn’t get our email, check your junk mail or spam folder to see if a message from us is there.
- If you can’t access the portal due to accessibility issues or special needs, or you’re having technical problems with the portal, contact us using the email address shown in your invitation message.
- Find out how to renew your PR card.
Reset a password
When we create an account for you, we’ll send a temporary password valid for 30 days to your email address. If this temporary password expires or is lost, we need to reset it for you. If your temporary password isn’t working, contact us using the email address on your invitation message.
If you already created a portal account, and forgot the password you set, you can reset it through the link in the portal.
Supported browsers and devices
You can access the portal using
- Chrome
- Firefox or
- Edge
Privacy
Our system briefly needs access to your photo library so you can select the photo you want to upload to the portal. This access won’t give us the ability to go through your photo library, or access it for any other purpose.
Seems like there is no short deadline to login/setup password and upload photo for Portal.
So maybe once I get my invite (Portal 2) just ignore until I come back?
My tracker shows COPR expires in 2024.
I called 3 times to IRCC and they don't know what should I do
Like reply to invite with the dates, but It may delay my process.Yes for portal 1 you have 7 days but for Portal 2 there is no timeframe.Seems like there is no short deadline to login/setup password and upload photo for Portal.

So today is Sept 28, my trip 14 Oct - 29 Oct, if I'll receive Portal Invite, I can ignore it until 29 Oct?
Hi everyone,
I was asked to provide my CV and Schedule A after my medical was passed in August; it was the second time I was asked for (Schedule A).
Is there anyone having the same experience, or do you know how much it might take to get a final update or the copr?
Thank you very much if you could answer my question please
