Hi everyone,
@ Yulia pls update decision made today on ecas for the principal applicant didn’t receive any correspondence on cic account. Also my father received a correspondence letter regarding medical surveillance. Anyone here who received the same letter? He just need to visit the clinic upon arrival to Canada? Please help and advise on how to proceed. Thanks[/QUOT

Those getting medical surveillance will have to call Health Canada within a few days after arrival and they will give you instructions as to what your parents should do. For example, if they have tb, the health canada will make necessary treatment arrangements. But if you forget to call them, they will call you and warn “they may cancel pR and deport them as they pose threat to other Canadians health.

Yes, we got that too. Just take a copy and show it to immigration officer during landing.
Next step would be to get PPR.... For us it took 1 month from decision made to get PPR. but this timeline varies case to case.
Waiting for PPR to COPR step and then landing.

Hi everyone,

I wanna know when the sponsorship application opens what information is required for me to just submit my interest? I know this year was filled within 10 minutes so I want to have all the information available when submitting my interest.

What is COPR? Is there anything they should do after submitting passports?

Hi>>>>> Confirmation of Permanent Residence (COPR)
Your CoPR is proof that you are a Canadian permanent resident; however, it is not a travel document and is not recognized for re-entry by airlines or other commercial transportation carriers. ... If you are driving, you can use your CoPR to re-enter at a Canada-US border crossing though.

Looks like we have similar timelines.. did you receive request for passport or came to know on the what decision they made?
I tried contacting the agent on phone and they said, they cant provide details on files being processed outside of Canada.

Thank you for your reply. So they will request for passport submission and then they will provide that COPR letter right? They will bring and show that COPR upon arrival?

Which Visa Office your application processed?
