Status of PPR vs CoPR

[Masonb6888]

Not sure what I'm looking for of an answer.
Basically, I'm a student here in BC and I'm currently paying international tuition.
I've just recently been accepted for my PR and have received PPR, but not CoPR.
My school told me that they can accept CoPR, but never said anything about PPR.
So I'm curious as to the status difference between PPR and CoPR other than the obvious where one states we're almost done with the application and the other is landing paperwork.
Does PPR, at this point, not 'imply' status?

Neither PPR nor COPR provides you with status of any kind. However they are very different.

PPR can come at various stages of the application process (although typically close to the end). At PPR, processing isn't always complete and approval still isn't guaranteed. All PPR really confirms is that you have an application in progress and it's likely to be approved. PPR also isn't an official document. It's simply a communication.

COPR is obviously your landing papers and is issued once your application is approved. It's an official document.

Makes sense that the school would be looking for COPR rather than PPR since COPR is: (1) an official document; (2) confirmation you've been approved as a PR. Having said that, you can always ask them.

Awesome! Thank you!
