If you apply with CSQ you are 99.9% sure that you will get PR one day (if don't mess up with the papers, of course). The problem is nobody knows when
EE is a little bit risky because of the draw and the other potential problems but definitely faster. If you take in consideration the Covid situation is very unlikely that you'll be able to come to Canada in a year even with EE. They are concentrate on inland candidates right now.
Massive draw today:
Canadian Experience Class
Number of invitations issued: 27,332
Rank required to be invited to apply: 27,332th or above
Date and time of round: February 13, 2021 at 11:56:56 UTC
CRS score of lowest-ranked candidate invited: 75
Tie-breaking rule: September 12, 2020 at 15:31:40 UTC
Not an easy choice! Good luck!
By the way with 75 points your chances are slim, draws like this happens ones in 10 years.
I didn’t know that you already applied! Congratulations! You shouldn’t wait for Quebec, go ahead.
Problems are all the papers you need to send, but I’m sure you already know how to handle it.

if you didn’t apply for Quebec federal stage why do you want to cancel your CSQ? I don’t see a reason but I’m not an expert. Probably you should make a consultation with professional if you are not sure what to do.
the massive draw with 75points lol, i feel like what we are experienced and experiencing from QC are a big joke.....whatever , we do ALL requested on the list

So I had overlooked this statement in XEP letter"
Next steps
We will assess your application to ensure it is complete, and provide you with a permanent
application number."
This means that they are gonna return our application if there is any error or something missing even if they start assessing it after years, so in this case the XEP that we have received is nothing more than a Canadapost Xpresspost tracking notice confirming the delivery of our application.
We are in limbo! look at the CEC (Express entry ) miracle!
When I first applied for CSQ, there was no Express Entry program, back in 2014.
It took 49 months them to issue my CSQ.
(Single & Bachelors in Computers Science & Masters in Software Engineering & Outland & Permanent Residency in EU)
Now, I am in my 26th month of federal process.
It makes total of 75 months = 6 years and 3 months

Same here, I have started this rough journey in Nov 2015 and received the CSQ on Nov 2018. I am into my 25th Month and no MR yet.
Even if we receive the medical request, it does not mean our applications will be processed faster.... I do not want to sound negative, but I do not think outland applications will be processed this year.... I hope am wrong..... Good luck to all of us....

What is the problem going on with outland applicants ?
Canadian citizens have no travel restrictions.
Permanent residents have no travel restrictions.
Temporary workers have no travel restrictions.
International students have no travel restrictions.
But if you are an approved permanent resident and if you want to land, it is NOT possible.
There is no justification or logical explanation of this situation.
Everybody can get sick, your legal status does not protect you or others from COVID.
As long as you have COPR, you should be able to land Canada with 14 days of quarantine.
Been following the forum almost daily since more than a year, learnt a lot and now it’s time to visit it for one last time and pay my debt...hope it shades light on some of you:
Applied: June 19
AOR: Aug 19
Police certificate request: Sept 20
Medicals request: 18 Jan 21
Medicals completed: 3 Feb 21
COPR: 12 Feb 21
(Inland, with past experience in 2 foreign countries for more than 6 months, applied with my wife)
We had a really crazy experience extending 3-4 times our work permits at last minute, but finally the nightmare is over.
Wish you all the best and hope all your files will be treated as soon as possible.

It took 5 years 8 months for CSQ and 20 months in federal processing for me. 88 months in total (till Nov 2020). It`s almost like 4 years double graduation on immigration processing for me…haha. Received COPR back in November but can`t travel due to restrictions….God knows how many months still I need to add in that 88 months.

Congrats! As long as you have COPR and passport back, you would be relieved.
Your 5 years 8 months CSQ process sounds like a real patience test.
I think after April 2021, they will lift those travelling restrictions and you could fly.
And, I see that your MR and DM durations are not that bad comparing to other applicants.
MR in 12 months, 5 days.
DM in 14 months, 12 days.
I still don't have MR even after 25 month, 7 days.

I agree with you that if you have a Corp and you are willing to travel they should let you do it. I guess that they don't want to overload the system in Canada. I don't know how it is in your country but here everything is on hold the last two months.

I think a person who holds COPR exactly equals to a person who has a PR card.
But when they want to travel to Canada, there is a limitation.
I understand because of the overload they don't let tourists (TRV - Temporary - Travel Visa) to enter Canada but why they also don't let COPR holders?
As long as they have a 14 days quarantine plan, they should be able to travel like PR holders.
This is nothing but another way of clogging the whole country-wide immigration system.
Because of this enforcement, all other immigration related services would suffocate (such as PR card printing etc.).
