Demo Proof of Vaccination - IRCC

• IRCC developed a set of pages for Canadian proof of vaccination (for travel outside of Canada)
  • About the Canadian COVID-19 proof of vaccination
  • More updates to come clarifying common questions received from feedback

• Much of the feedback is around these areas:
  • Clients are unaware of the differences between the Canadian COVID-19 proof of vaccination and their provincial/territorial one
  • Users are confused when directed to provincial/territorial sites and assume they were sent to the wrong place.
  • Users are expecting to get the proof of vaccination from the federal government as opposed to their provincial or territorial government.
  • Users don’t know if they already have it or if they need to get a new one
  • How to update vaccination records
  • How to get proof through non-digital means
