After your Passport Request (PPR) is approved, you will receive the Confirmation of Permanent Residence (CoPR), a document that confirms your permanent residency has been approved. But there’s a catch– the CoPR comes with an expiration date!
You have less than a year to move to Canada and complete your permanent residency process after receiving your CoPR. But settling in, finding a place to live and a job, and adapting to a new culture can be difficult, especially if you have other commitments.
Maybe you don’t want to quit your job or have family commitments for the next year and can’t leave home for an extended time.
For one of these many reasons, some immigrants choose to do a soft landing in Canada to complete their landing formalities and start the PR paperwork, which helps them to buy more time to settle in Canada without affecting their permanent residency process.
