I'm in a similar situation. I'm a visitor currently and my status expires on Jan 10. I was hoping to travel on that same day assuming that if I don't get eCOPR by then, I can always print it anywhere and come back via the US border or get a PRTD, however, the IRCC call center, and my lawyer said that you cannot leave the country before your COPR is issued. If you have to, you will need to inform them via web form and they will either hold the issuance of eCOPR or you will need to change the process to outland (PPR) from wherever you are.
Hey guys!!
Can somebody please advise me.
My portal 2 was nov 29 and i am waiting for my ecopr and my work permit is valid until july 2025.
Can I travel outside canada before i receive my ecopr and inform ircc through a webform? If anybody knows what's going to happen to my file after informing them.
luckily, if i recieve ecopr while i am outside canada, then i can apply for prtd and enter back again.
If anybody has a similar experience pls share.
