Outland to inland, how did ircc know your inland phone number? Did you updated your contact infromation or
provided it when you applied for VR?
yes, everytime is was possible for online application updates - we mentioned the Canadian phone number as well.

Could you give more info on what happened?
 
My situation is similar to @m.ford. I was an outland applicant (AOR June 1st, 2019) and moved to Canada on a work permit in July 2019. I received my CoPR on March 12th, 2020 and the CoPR expired on May 27th.

I had reached out to IRCC multiple times. Then in August, I sent them my Ontario driving license to see if they can confirm that I'm already in Canada and complete the virtual landing. Received the templated response at the end of Aug that my document has been forwarded to the concerned department.

I have been submitting a web form every alternate week. I asked IRCC if I can travel (since I hold a valid US visa) and get my landing done at the airport. This is the response I received to my travel request;

"
Thank you for contacting Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).

While examining your file, we were pleased to notice that the situation reported in your Web form request is now resolved.

"

Anyone here has any idea about what does that mean?
 
completed my virtual landing today over a call. The officer said, I’ll receive an email with further instructions within a week. Any idea on how much time does it actually take to receive the email?

Congratulation~~~
Where you sent your driving license to? And what’s phone number called you?
 
I sent my driving license in a web form. I sent documents to CPC Ottawa as well as CIC Etobicoke (that's nearest to me) requesting virtual landing.

The caller ID is hidden so you can not figure out the number that called you.

May I know the E-mail of CPC Ottawa and Etobicoke, thanks a lot
 
Hi,

I am in a similar situation like most people on this thread - I applied as an Outland FSW applicant in Sept 2019 and then moved to Canada. I got a PPR request last week but when I asked if they really need my passport given the fact that I am already in Canada, they told me to not send the passport and that the local office will do a virtual landing. The local office in my case is Vancouver.

But I haven't heard anything from them.
  1. Has anyone else done a virtual landing initiated by the Vancouver office?
  2. Do you know the email of the Vancouver IRCC office?
  3. Does sending a copy of the Driver's license help in authenticating your location
Thanks in advance.

I'm an outland applicant who resides in Montreal, Canada when my application was approved. I sent my passport to CPC-Ottawa. My return tracker was just activated this morning. Waiting for virtual landing now, hopefully, it won't take too long.

Passport sent: 2020-10-16
CPC-Ottawa asked for my current address via email: 2020-10-21
Passport returned without CoPR: 2020-10-29
