If you're already in Canada, you get an eCOPR document. The portal has two stages. Portal 1 is when they email you asking for information to create the account. Portal 2 is when you get your eCOPR doc from submitting information on the portal. Both these processes are annoyingly slow with Montreal office.

Just waiting on the PR card now but have a trip planned back to the US so hoping I can still do that now my status has changed. Processing time for the card is another 77 days apparently.

Hello everyone,
I have received the PAL and completed the medical exam as requested. I'm currently waiting for the results of my medical exam. My question is: does reaching this step guarantee a successful outcome? Has my process been approved?
Thank you for the clarifications!

Congrats on the progress!
PAL means you passed eligibility, and there are medical and background to pass for the final decision. if you passed your medical and you and your families' background are not complicated, you should expect ppr pretty soon. (only less than 2% of all applicants were refused on medical or security grounds each year)
Would you mind sharing your timeline? and your processing office please/?
Thank you for your response. I feel less anxious now after you mentioned that I have passed the eligibility

You don’t need to do anything, your biometrics will be sent electronically to IRCC and should soon be visible when you log in to your account.
Hello, @Taylah.
I noticed that, based on your timeline, you took the medical exam before submitting the additional documents. I thought that once you received the request for the medical examination, it should be considered that your eligibility has been approved.
In my case, I sent my additional documents and a week later I received the medical request and the PAL. Now I'm waiting for the results of my medical examination.
Considering I'll pass the medical exam and my background is fine, can I consider my eligibility approved after receiving the PAL and the medical examination or can I still not rest assured?
Thank you =)
