travelling : allowed between landing and receiving PR card ?

[dongrongwen]

Hi !
I'm new here on this topic.
Good news, I received my COPR and will make my landing in a couple of days.

I guess I will receive my PR card between 3 to 5 weeks after this landing.

My question is : am I allowed to travel and come back to Canada during this time I don't have my PR card in my pocket ?

Thanks for your replies,

Yes. Now PR card processing time is around 2 months.

So if I understand you well, no problem to enter Canada while waiting for the card ?

If you have visa exempt passport then you can enter with COPR. Otherwise PR card or TD required.

There will be no issue teavelling to Canada prior to Sept 29th. When checking in for the flight, don't mention your PR status, as the airline can then refuse to board you without a PR card.
