I guess you would need to apply for the PRTD in this case but I might be wrong so better to wait for more experienced Folks to comment on that.
Details can be found here:

As for the long wait on the issuing of the PR cards, there was an interesting article regarding this matter shared by legalfalcon:

Thank you for the information

Hey guys,

PR card mailed! :) Saw a ghost update when I checked my application, went in and saw the message that the final decision is taken and is approved and the PR card is mailed! The status then changed to "Approved" from submitted. Now to receive the card, the last leg of the journey :)

Just one question: When they say the PR card is mailed, do they mean just me or also all the dependents who are here in in Canada? Thanks!

Did you get any email before that stating your photo was sent to the production centre to be processed?

No, didn't get any email. There was a ghost update when I added my PR card application to my CIC account, and that's it. No updates from then till now.

My address is "Accepted" and my photo is "In review" in the PR Portal, no change in that for the last two weeks.

Still waiting for my address to be accepted.

You have basically completed the journey, Yaay!

I still keep checking my CIC account for updates, even though the PR card is mailed and it's all done! It's been almost two years (Invitation in May 2020) and it's hard to kick the habit of checking the account every few hours! :D:D:D All the best to you all!

Bloody hell, will you August 2020 guys ever finish? Every time there is one of you saying "I am still not PR!". Start filing mandamus!
