Hi All -
Candidate from US (non-PR/non-citizen)
COPR issued - Feb 22, 2021
COPR expired - July 1, 2021
Travel ban was lifted June 26th, 2021 from US
Couldnt travel due to short notice.
IRCC website mentioned they will reach out, I filled the webform in June, got standard response.
Now I am unable to submit another form.
Anyone else in the same boat? Anyone who can shed some light?
almost similar dates and I reside in the US as well. With restrictions easing now, I am ready to travel, but I guess we still have to wait for the re-issue email. Let me know if you see any progress in your case.

Someone on nairaland travelled with expired COPR because they reside in US. Surprisingly they let the person through using the group 4 guide in this document

Similar case. Moving from US too. I am pre-March COPR holder. Received ready to travel email from IRCC in August 2021, almost after 15 months long wait. Waiting for medical forms.

Congrats! I am also pre March. I had to do another medical which has again expired August 2021! Were you given an extension or had to redo? Yours was possibly in date I would imagine either.

Thanks!

Have they asked for another medical? Did you check with them on the status?

They asked back when my COPR expired July 2020. I redid one and it was approved August 2020. Considering that was over a year ago in which it was approved I'm just wondering will they ask me again to do a third one or will to provide an extension. It's been a long, long process!

I was asked to redo once I replied to their email ("Do you still want to immigrate to Canada...")
