UPDATE :UPDATE :
PR Renewal submitted online (for 5 family members) : October 6, 2025
Received notification on October 31, 2025 (for myself and spouse only) to "upload itemized receipt from photographer or back of the photos with stamp".
Submitted the "back of photos with photographer's stamp" on November 3, 2025.
Status changed to "Submitted"
Status for 3 children's applications remains the same.
Called IRCC and was advised that the PR Cards for the children have been issued and are in the mail. But for myself and spouse, the timeline would start afresh from November 3, 2025 !!!!! It is surprising that the same receipt was also uploaded initially for my children's applications as well, and was accepted by the system, but an objection was raised on the other 2 applications which are now delayed by another month.
Once you open the pr portal page, you can open DevTools (Ctrl + Shift + I) → Right Click anywhere and click "inspect" → Select the Network tab on the right window in lower right→ Click the file names "cases" or "cases4000" ... and scroll down to check the logs details. Hope it works. One caveat though, its very erratic information most of the time.Could you please let me know how to check the inspect logs ? Thank you !
Hey got our PR cards today, thanks for your reply.Are you able to link your application to your IRCC account ?
Probably linking the application to IRCC account gives more info than the PR portal where the status would be ”submitted” even after getting the PR cards in some cases
Hi! When did you apply?Hey got our PR cards today, thanks for your reply.
'Status id' : 16 usually means they haven't opened up / looked at your application yet."status": {
"id": 16,
"statusEn": "Ready for Review",

Does this mean it is ready for review?
Thank you so much'Status id' : 16 usually means they haven't opened up / looked at your application yet.
When they look at it and start processing, you might see the 'status id' change from 16 to 20.
I say 'might' above, because you also may never see any change/update with this method as this way is definitely unreliable. It doesn't work properly for everyone. This method of checking your application status is 'not an official way recommended by IRCC'.
If you do see it change to '20', then try and link your application again on the GCKey account after that.
Since you submitted your application on October 21st, wait check/try again late next week.
Application 1. For my spouse the status ID changed from 16 to 20 yesterday. I am now able to link my spouse application in IRCC.'Status id' : 16 usually means they haven't opened up / looked at your application yet.

Latest update from IRCC
Review of eligibility - November 14, 2025:Your eligibility has been reviewed. Please see the final decision below.
Status 'We mailed your permanent resident card to you. Your card can take up to six weeks to arrive.'
Application 2. For my application the status ID changed from 16 to 20 today. But I am NOT able to link my application in IRCC. I think I may need to wait couple of days ?
Anyone had similar situation currently or in past ? Can I expect my spouse PR card in next couple of weeks ?
Thanks for your help.
Both applications are submitted on Oct 7th 2025.Hi! When did you apply?
Did you submitted as urgent application ? I see your travel date as 02-Feb-2026. I doubt they consider your application as urgent as their current processing time itself 29 days and they may process it as regular application. But its up to the officer and your luck.Hello!
