Yes, it is sent from London. LVO do not tell you when it is sent, so I am hoping it has been sent and is on its way across the pond!

Congratulations to everyone with DM! Good luck to everyone else currently waiting.

I'm waiting for COPR to arrive and always with me, I'm thinking ahead to when it's time to land. I'm hoping to plan it all well in advance and would like your knowledge and thoughts on my situation:-

In an ideal world I would like to travel ahead of my kids and do my landing. My kids would stay with my parents for about a month so that me and my husband can look for a house and I can investigate schools and job openings. This would enable us to have everything arranged and would hopefully make the transition for the kids a bit easier. It would also be great if our shipment had arrived and we could set up our home and their bedrooms, etc.

My question is; is this permitted? or would my kids need to do their landing with me? they are aged 19, 17 and 13.

My plan would be to return to the UK once everything's sorted out in Canada and accompany the kids to do their landing.

Thanks ;D

Beaverdiva - as long as the principal applicant lands first, or at the same time as dependents, it is fine.

So you will land first and then return to the UK and then fly back with your children. I am not sure exactly what will happen with your COPR, maybe others will know.

So you're waiting it out in Canada? Is there a general expected time frame from DM > COPR

The spreadsheet tracks DM to receiving the COPR. Can be anywhere from a couple of days all the way up to 8 weeks.

Andrew-Brit-yes, everything is correct on the spreadsheet. We are not landing until March so will be staying in the UK until then.Here's hoping you receive your Copr any day now :)

The spreadsheet tracks DM date and COPR received date. I explained this in a recent post. Most likely within a month but take into account the time if year.
