CoPR - Not Valid For Travel

[canuck78]

Guys can someone help me with my question?

My parents have COPR and are currently visiting me in the US. I will be taking them to Canada via road in my car. However, I am not a Canadian PR but I have a Canada visitor visa. Will this be an issue? Should the car be in their name to be accepted as private vehicle? This is not their first landing as PR. They landed in Toronto Airport directly from India. Please help.

No you are fine. They can get reported if they don't meet their RO. I am hoping this doesn't mean you sponsored your parents and then moved to the US.

No. They were sponsored by my Brother who is a Canadian PR. What is an RO btw?

Residency obligation. The rule that they must be in Canada for 730 days out of every five years.

Hello. I got my Permanent Residence visa. Im so so happy..
But the Confirmation of PR says not valid for travel so im a lil bit concerned why is that so? Plus by mistake the COPR is a lil bit teared from the corner. Is that a problem??

It means that the COPR isn't a travel document, you still need a passport and valid visa (if you're from a country that requires a visa to enter Canada)

Hi Anjani, I just traveled by land in a rental car into Canada with my COPR and the passport that is associated to it and I had no issues at all, just asked what I was doing in the US and then said welcome back
