Yes, I did on 22nd Jan 2019. The process was really simple. It's better to reach a couple of hours before. My appointment was 2:30 PM and I reached there by 12:30 and immediately they started the process. Got the Token and waited for my turn to come. This wait was near 45 minutes. It took five to ten minutes. Passport, Picture, Letter verification and finally got the confirmation of PR.
I did not receive a passport request. I directly received the landing interview letter, so can't provide any information on appointment.
Hi There, I also did the same thing last week in Etobicoke office.
Just for confirmation asking..
So, After that we no need to do border cross and we just have to wait for PR cards..is it!!
Anything else we need to do other than updating our status for SIN, Health card..?
Please Suggest..

Hi Myra,

For the PR card, did they ask you to send photographs. When did they ask you and what were the other steps between COPR to PR card.
I sent my two photos when I was sending my passport after I had got my PPR. Then I got my passport back with the CoPR with photo. I did landing as flagpole at Queenston-Lewiston Bridge.
You can read about my experience on below link. And after flagpoling (on January 17th 2019) I didn't do anything but wait for my PR card.

Ok thats great! I had read in some forum that we need to send photographs again, then there is a ghost update in application and thats how they track progress between COPR and PR card.
I did my landing at Rainbow bridge on Feb 26, it dint take me more than 10 mins to drive to US (had my B1 visa and i94) and take a u-turn, pay toll and do my landing. Based on your timeline, looks like I will receive my PR card by April end.

I landed and the PR information sheet says within 6 weeks after landing and the border officer said the exact same thing. It took roughly little less than 4 weeks.
