PR confirmation portal timelines

[Fordling]

I have sort of a problem and I was hoping to get some opinions. I am currently inside Canada on a visting visa and got a final decision email for my PR application on Nov 1. I didn't get the P1 so I sent an number of webforms and emails requesting portal access. I didn't get any updates so I sent my passport to LA VAC to get my passport stamped and the plan was to flagpole to activate my PR status. As of today, my passport is at the IRCC office in LA. However, I got a P2 email today and I'm not sure of how to proceed. Do I complete my details on the Portal? Or should I just wait for my passport to come back and then flagpole? Not sure of what to do next and I would love to get anyone's input or opinion. Thanks

Why did you choose to send your passport to LA VAC? Why not Ottawa?

Hi All, Please where can one find or know the visa office processing the ECOPR after submission of photo and address in Portal 2?

It should be right at the end of your portal request emails.

What?? I'm very surprised you have not yet received eCOPR with that expiry date,

They got P1 on Nov 14, no P2 yet, so they're not in the eCOPR queue yet. Once they get in the eCOPR queue, their eCOPR should come faster than those with a later expiry date.

Also, the expiry date is not the only thing they're basing the queue on. I think it also depends on the stream and the processing time standard for that stream. Otherwise, I should've received the eCOPR before the other person with Aug 31 P2 and July COPR expiry since mine are both earlier.

Virtual Landing Unit should be pretty good. Consider yourself lucky for not getting VO Montreal. Your eCOPR will probably come soon.

5. COPR number and expiry date update in tracker - 4th Dec 2023

I'm having problems understanding why people with expiry dates that are expired or almost expired are not yet getting eCOPR.

I spoke to an immigration officer today on the phone and asked about the relevance of the COPR expiration dates. He said it has nothing to do with eCOPR generation, and that it's just something for their side of things. He said not to worry about it because they can just extend it if needed.

It has appeared to be a pattern though, so I don't know what to make of that.

Yeah, it doesn't make much sense. I heard of some people who's COPR expired and they just had an extended expiry date when they finally did receive the eCOPR.

I meant also that people with expiry dates way longer than yours already have their PR, I just don't understand their system of doing things.

I highly doubt that. Virtual Landing Unit (Ottawa) is very slow in eCoPR processing. I'm waiting for my eCoPR for 54 days now. And as I see from the posts at the beginning of the year, some ppl were waiting for three months for eCoPRs from the VLU. It's Ottawa, the center of the Canadian bureaucracy, and they work as slow as other offices. I'm wondering if that might be any reasonable explanations for these delays.

I think a major factor is also the stream and processing time standards for the stream. For example, Express Entry standard is mostly 5 months. But for my stream, it's twice that at 10 months, so they can delay mine and still meet the standard. So I probably have to wait until they're done with all the EE applicants and have some free time to deal with others.

It looks like there is no real system for the eCoPR issue. You can relatively easily track your application before the final decision. There is a defined process for that, and you can find its description. But after that, it is a black box. In normal processing ppl get their eCoPRs in hours, max a couple of days after they submit in-Canada declarations.
