Yes, indeed, with the Confirmations of Permanent Residence, we had to react quickly during the pandemic and adapt our various processes.
First, in April and May, we reviewed the Confirmations of Permanent Residence for which the medical exams were about to expire. We looked at the various files and we proactively extended the validity period of some medical exams by 6 to 12 months, so that those permanent residents could travel to Canada.
As I mentioned, since April, almost 14,000 Confirmations of Permanent Residence have reached their expiry date. Of that number, we have contacted 6,000 people to explain to them that they are still able to come to Canada because we have proactively extended the validity period of the medical exams. We still have to communicate with approximately another 4,000 people. We are doing that in a rigorous manner. Last week, we reached 500 people and we will do the same this week.
We are working at a very good rhythm. We hope that we will be moving forward quickly and communicating with everyone in a very reasonable time period.
