New immigrants to Canada with a valid Canadian COPR can now enter Canada!

Those who had their COPR issued after March 18, 2020, were previously not allowed to travel into Canada due to COVID-related border restrictions. As of June 21, 2021, that restriction has now been lifted.

Those who are fully vaccinated and currently allowed into Canada are no longer required to stay at a government-approved hotel or undergo a 14-day quarantine as of July 5, 2021.

Travel Exemption - https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-...

Immigration remains crucial to addressing Canada’s longstanding demographic challenges and labour market shortages, and it will be a vital part of Canada’s post-pandemic economic recovery. Starting June 21, 2021, any foreign national who holds a valid Confirmation of Permanent Residence (COPR) may travel to Canada.

Under the previous rules, foreign nationals who held a valid COPR issued on or before March 18, 2020, were exempt from Canada’s travel restrictions. Those who held a valid COPR issued after March 18, 2020, could only come to Canada if they met another exemption or were coming from the US to settle permanently in Canada.

Helping applicants with expired and expiring COPRs
A COPR’s validity, which can last for up to one year, is tied to the applicant’s passport and their immigration medical examination. However, many applicants were not able to travel to Canada before their COPRs expired due to the travel restrictions or other COVID-19 related considerations. Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has been working with applicants who were already exempt from the travel restrictions to reissue them a COPR. For applicants with expired COPRs issued after March 18, 2020, more information on when and how to obtain a new COPR will soon be available on IRCC’s website.
