Hey freckle, did u get ur pr card yet?
Hi rajsaigal,

No, I haven't yet. And ecas shows still in process. I guess it's still in the queue to be printed, and I think they have technical issues with that. Otherwise, why it is taking so long to print it?

I am not expecting to receive it this week either.

Still "In Process" from Nov 6th.

travelling out of country on Dec 18. Not sure if it will arrive by then. Trying for urgent processing.

Travel Document is another option. But you have to be out of the country to have it processed!!! Makes no sense. Spoke to VAC in L.A. - they are saying the same thing. Living in Calgary - driving to L.A. is not an attractive choice either - in order to be able to re-enter Canada with COPR.

A grey area - CIC needs to either speed up their processing time for PR Card OR have a plan B in place - for people who really NEED to travel can do so, without headache and wasting so much time. :mad:

Hey guys, did anyone called cic and asked about why the processing is being late? There is wait at each and every step of this process. So annoyed with all this!

I called CIC today - they are saying as a new applicant for PR Card - I am not eligible for the Urgent Processing option!! But since the processing number of days have already passed - they are sending a message over to the processing centre.
As for travel document, I can either apply at my destination (Outside of Canada!) or wait to travel till my PR Card arrives.
This is simply lame. Jeopardizing people's plans for CIC's internal slack. I'm out of this shit hole once I have my citizenship (2 more years). Not worth it. Also got to experience "Canadian Medical Emergency" first hand last month - had to wait 7 hours before getting any attention - and that too I was bleeding pretty badly. Life is too short for this bullsh*t. Past few years I have been trying to convince my sister to immigrate to Canada - not anymore! :-\ :-X

So I did call CIC again today. I landed on October 16. It's been 42 days since then and the official processing time posted on the web site is 24 days. The agent said that my card is still in process and since it exceeded the official processing times she sent a message to the processing center which in turn should either contact me if needed or produce the card.
