Folks who got eCoPR and wondering if there is anyway to track PR card mailing, one needs to link PR card application manually into gckey account as follows: https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/linking-pr-card-application-to-track-pr-card-after-landing-flagpole-landing-interview-is-complete.617040/

This is not a necessary step, you'll eventually get PR card but if you're just curious to know, you can manually link PR card application.. I got this info from another thread discussing PR portal timelines #7,045

Shoot, my email on Tracker is wrong. When they send Portal 1 they also send a PDF copy of the email on application portal?
Get that email address update asap. For me portal1 was sent to my email, not in the gckey. However I know from a co-worker's case that say if you miss portal1 email, and then you call IRCC to resent portal1 to updated email address, then portal1 instructions pdf lands in gckey account. So get the email updated before portal1 is triggered. Call them and update via webform - when calling, ask if portal1 was triggered or not.

The most gratifying moment is when IRCC accept your declaration (thru portal2) and then notifies you that your eCoPR is available for download, followed by another email with the subject "Congratulations! You are now a permanent resident (PR) of Canada!". I got my eCoPR! I see my file closed in the tracker, I hope get PR cards soon.

Processing time for non-EE currently being 18~ months, back then I had applied, it was 22~ months, the AR to eCoPR for me is '9 months and 23 days' which isn't as bad as I though, honestly I was thinking like 12~14 months. I noticed that things really moved quick once BGC changed from "Not applicable to Processing", followed ADR. I know (non-ee) members here have gotten eCoPR in even lesser time and there are members who are still waiting from 2021 Q4.. anyways, while everyones case is unique, I wish everyone here gets their PR soon.
Congrats brother!! I am super happy for you. Finally the journey has come to an end. Now is the time to chill and grow back all of your lost hairs. :)

Nope . You don’t get any email communication. You only come to know when you open your account.
