    PR Card (New/Renewal) Processing Timeline 2021

    Thank you! DM, does not mean that the card was issued or printed already. I found that they update GCKey sooner than ECAS. You will get a message in GCKey and ECAS if your card has been mailed. You'll just see the update sooner in GCKey. Also, for me there was a ghost update day before they...

    Expired PR returning to Canada, by first flying to USA -- additional details?

    Thank you! I think I'm good with dealing with CBSA at the border. I was just worried that the airline won't even let me board the plane to the U.S. without my PR Card or an onward ticket. I can't remember if they even ask for that since I already have my U.S. visa in my Philippine passport.
