IRCC updated instructions of finalization of PR applications
On July 22, 2020, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) released a new program delivery instruction on for finalization of permanent residence applications from inside and outside Canada. IRCC confirmed it continues the intake of applications. All incomplete applications with missing documents will be retained in the system for 90 days. After 90 days, IRCC will request the missing documents with another 90-days deadline. Applicants with approved Confirmation of Permanent Residence (COPR) and Permanent Resident Visa (PRV) must inform the IRCC if they are unable to travel before the expiry date. Expired COPR and PRV may be reopened for review in 90 days. Approved applications can be re-opened in GCMS by cancelling the COPR and PRV and removing the final decision. Once the travel limitations ended, applicants can inform the IRCC and the re-opened application may be re-approved.
