Received PR Card on Monday March 28th, 2022. Complete timeline as follows: -
AOR - April 6th, 2020
Medical Cleared - June 23rd, 2020
Biometrics completed - Oct 15th, 2020

After this dead silence. Only update was a ghost update when the medicals expired. GCMS notes informed they were extended on April 23rd, 2021.

Medical passed again on GCkey - Nov 17th, 2021

Again dead silence. Decided enough is enough and filed for Writ of Mandamus on January 26th, 2022.

Portal email - Feb 1st, 2022.
Replied - Feb 4th, 2022.
Portal credential email - Feb 5th, 2022.
eCOPR on portal - Feb 16th, 2022
Linked PR Card Application to GCkey - March 1st, 2022.
PR Card application approved and card mailed - March 23rd, 2022.
PR Card received - March 28th, 2022.

The whole process took only a few days shy of 2 years. Sent numerous emails, webforms, request from MP's (3 times), ordered GCMS notes (3 times). Nothing worked except the Writ. It cost me CAD 2800 in total.

To be honest was not as happy as I thought I would be when I finally received my PR Card. The person that started this journey 2 years ago and the person who received the PR Card are two different persons. The journey took a lot of me but this forum helped me get through it.

Any questions are welcomed. In case I dont reply here email me at - bhanotprateek@yahoo.in
I can totally understand that, waited for 2 years and a month now. I feel like once I get my copr it will be more of relief than joy. The process drains you. All the same I thank God, really happy for you!!!

Hi Ahmed, Congratulations on your PR..!!!
Wanted to ask a quick question: Where did you upload your completed Schedule A form? With a webform or somewhere in your CIC account?

Thanks!

For a slight positive sign: They don't show the COVID message anymore on the GC Key portal.
Even in the page to check processing time, they no longer mention any Covid message

@legalfalcon we are still waiting for golden email, it's been 18 months, we just had a baby, can you or anyone in this group suggest how should we update IRCC about it and which form we need to submit to inform them about our Canadian born baby?

Thank you in advance for your support.
