I just submitted my renewal this afternoon, actually 10 minutes ago. Today is April 3rd, but the date of submission is showing as April 4th. Is that normal? I'm concerned as I updated my address history and employment history before submitting to be up to date (April 3rd), but if its saying I...

I don't think anyone here is saying they used old headshot photos for their application. I certainly haven't. We are talking about uploading a copy of our old PR card for the application. I just took a photo on my phone of the front and back of the old card, rather than getting a photocopy done.

Great! Thanks. Yeah, I think there is a question about whether your headshot photos are digital copies from the photographer, or scanned photos.. so I guess a photo of your headshot photo is the same as a scan, as long as you tick that option in the application. Thanks again!

What web browser are you using? Have you tried using another one, like Chrome or Firefox?

I am about to submit my PR card renewal online, but I have only taken photos of my old PR card with my phone (front and back). I got to thinking that maybe I should get actual photocopies of them instead? Has anyone out there successfully renewed their card with photos of their old card...

Update: I just tried FireFox as it was already on my computer. After I ran through the form again and re-answered the questions about having any PR issues or removal orders etc, it now shows as Ready To Submit in green.

I've just discovered this issue as well.. I'm using Safari. I'll try Chrome. Thanks.

I'm also wondering the same thing.. Did anyone get professional passport style photos taken and then scan them as a JPEG, or are people just getting photos taken on their phones and uploading them? Not sure how to do the photos with the online portal renewal!

Wow, this is a blast from the past. Sorry I can't help you, I ended up getting my PR Card in time for the trip and didn't need to get a PRTD. It just arrived without warning in the mail. They don't make it easy to track timeframes on getting the cards that's for sure. Best of luck with it.

I landed last December and got my PR card end of Jan. If I log into MyCIC today it still says my PR application is 'Approved'. I tried many times to link my PR card application to my profile but the system could never find it. It still came.

You're in the wrong thread here. This thread is about people trying to get an ITA. Apart from that, take the advice on the previous page from Midnight Blessings. Chill out, wait. Things will update when they are done. You will be contacted by CIC if anything additional is needed. Its a...

I'm not sure how you were admissible on your original IEC visa. Seems that even ppl with low end DWI's have trouble obtaining visas or residency. CIC & CBSA appear to have zero tolerance on criminal convictions. I'm not sure, you might need to consult a Canadian immigration lawyer on this issue.

Congrats! Now you just have to wait for the card. Also don't forget to visit Service Canada and get a new permanent SIN number.

Good luck! No need to worry, you'll be fine.

No problems. I couldn't find the immigration hours online when I was researching either, so I don't know. I just did it during business hours to be safe. I think I was there around lunchtime on a Saturday from memory.

Yeah I think the processing timeline varies depending their workload.

Yes. Landed December 2nd and card arrived at my place on January 25th.

Thank you! I'm in West K. You don't need a US visa to flagpole. Technically what is happening during this process is that you are legally leaving Canada, then getting an administrative refusal from the US and are being returned back to Canada. So you legally leave Canada, but you don't...

No. The permits don't need activating.. They get sent to you in the post as you're already inland. We were never questioned at any point.

Oh, I'm sorry I don't know. It probably is to travel. I would think you could get your passport replaced at an embassy tho. I would maybe contact CIC directly and ask them about your specific situation.
