I am writing this post for people who are still waiting for their PR card and it's been more than 2-3 months. Someone might find it helpful.

I received my e-COPR on 20th September and as most of my friends received their PR Card in a few days, I thought I will get mine as well. On 19th October, I received a notification from the PR portal and after login, I could see this message



After a week or two, when I logged in to the portal, I saw that status was gone. I was not seeing this Close and Accepted status anymore.

I submitted multiple web forms and attached my flight ticket and told them I am travelling in December. I submitted the web form under the PR card and Urgent Processing of the PR card category. I sent them emails on different email ids including the one from which I received my PR confirmation and IRCC.ClientPortalPrairies-PrairiesClientPortail.IRCC@cic.gc.ca.

I received one email from an agent on 3rd November against my web form saying the first card is already on the priority list and blah blah but he mentioned that I need to update my address using the web form.
I submitted my address using webform and again the next day sent an email to all the email ids I had.

On 15th November, I received another email in response to my emails that my card went for production. I called IRCC and asked when my card went for production and it was 11th November.

And 17th November, I received a notification from the PR portal after logging in, I am seeing the case status as closed and accepted and on the CIC portal, it's showing it has been mailed on 17th. Also, received an email against my emails saying the same thing.

Good luck everyone!

That's their auto-response. But you will hear from them within 2--3 days.

I received my ECOPR on November 15th, but the photo is still in review. I can not link pr card app to cic account.
Any one know how to link or what is the process after getting ECOPR.

So, finally found out that they have mailed my PR card yesterday. Just wondering how can I track it? Also, do they send it through Canada Post?
When did you receive your Portal for PR --> eCOPR --> Confirmation that PR card has ben mailed?

From what I read, PR card should be delivered in less than 2 weeks.

Hi all,

Waiting for my first PR Card since June 23rd 2021 now...

I became a PR on June 23rd; this is the same day I got my e-COPR via the PR Portal. Also the same day I uploaded my digital photo and Canadian mailing address.

I'm patient but it's frustrating to hear applicant getting their PR Card when they've applied/approved after me.

I just got my GCMS notes today and the last update was in early Aug - basically the change of my Primary office to PRC Sydney, Location: registry.

The location registry part makes no sense to me but I guess i'm in line to get my PR card since the office changed? Wondering if anyone can shed some light on if this means I should get my PR card soon or any thoughts?

Thanks,

hi all I have a question about the digital photo
Do they still ask for a physical one or just the digital file?

The photo I took in store couldn't pass the system evaluation, but the one I made with my phone did:rolleyes:
I'm just wondering if I could use a self-made photo
