My application is also in Mississauga and I’m experiencing the same thing. I received the pre-arrival letter in February 21 and no other news since then. My sister-in-law has also applied and her application is in Mississauga, she also didn’t receive any news since February. Hopefully everything is alright and they’ll get back on track ☹

Same here, everything was pretty fast until I received my eligibility on 23rd February, no updates since then. My background check has been in process for a month and a half already and my status tracker hasn't been updated for 2 days too. I just hope everything is going well in Mississauga VO and we can all have our updates soon.

I experienced the same before. Then I called them on Mar 15 and knew that my background was completed on Mar 14, however, PR Tracker didn't update anything. I received PR Portal email on Mar 16 (Please see my signature for timeline).
I recommend you to call them. Before Mar 15, I called and they told me my file was at VO Mississauga. then on Mar 15, they told me I just had Secondary VO Etobicoke.
Hope this helps! Wish all of you luck!

My husband finally got his PR Card.
98 days from application day to PR Card.

*It took almost month for him to get PR Card from the day his PR got approved/ COPR.
-They rejected the first photo we uploaded. So we got a new photo taken and got a digital copy. Uploaded them and PR portal still says "In review" Only for them to use that same photo they rejected for the PR card.:rolleyes: never got an update that a PR card is inbthe way.
but, oh well... what matters is he got the PR card now.

Good luck everyone. Y'all been very helpful!

We got our approval email today :) after over a month of silence. We did call last week to ask why it moved so fast and then we provided additional documents and the dead silence and they couldn’t give an answer and now we have the approval. Hoping the final steps are quick.

I received invited to PR portal upload photo on 16th March and received ECOPR about 4 days later. When I check my portal my photo still says in review with IRCC but my address conformation has been accepted. Has anyone else’s taken this long without their photo being rejected? I’m approaching the current processing time for the card being sent out so I will phone once that comes around too.

I have a friend who has their PR card in hand and the photo still says in review.
