No . There won't be any changes to your portal account. To check status of your pr card application , you should link it to GCKeY account.
After receiving your eCOPR (Electronic Confirmation of Permanent Residence) in Canada, you will typically wait for your PR card to be issued. If you are using the GCKey portal and want to link your PR card application to your GCKey account, here’s how to do it:
Step-by-Step: Link PR Card Application to GCKey Account
  1. Sign in to your GCKey Account

  2. Go to “Add (link) your application to your account”
    • Once logged in, scroll down to find “Link application to this account”
    • Click it

  3. Select the Application Type
    • Choose “Permanent Resident Card” from the drop-down menu
    • Under sub-type, select “Initial PR Card” or “Renewal” (in your case, it’s likely “Initial”)

  4. Enter the Required Details
    • You’ll need to input:
      • Family name
      • Given name(s)
      • Date of birth
      • Place of birth
      • Country of birth
      • Date you became a permanent resident (this is the date on your eCOPR)
      • Unique Client Identifier (UCI) – found on your eCOPR
      • You may also be asked for your passport number or Application Number (starting with “EP” or “PR”)

  5. Submit and Confirm
    • Click “Search for my application”
    • If the system finds your application, you’ll be able to link it
    • Once linked, you’ll be able to track your PR card progress (e.g., “sent for production”, “mailed”, etc.)
Tips:
If the system can’t find your application, double-check:
  • The exact spelling of your name (as it appears on the eCOPR)
  • Your date of birth and other details
  • The PR application may not be in the system yet — wait a few days and try again
 
Hi Miss Bee,
Sorry to bother you again. I have a question regarding the name format on my documents. I’ve been using only "family name", no given name. My first work permit listed only the family name without a given name. e.g. "Family Name: Sanjiv Kumar." However, in the most recent permit, the same name appears in both the family name and given name fields,
e.g. "Family Name: Sanjiv Kumar" & "Given name: Sanjiv Kumar".
Should I apply for an amendment, or is it acceptable to leave it as is (UCI no. is same in old and recent documents)?
Could this discrepancy affect my PR application?
Also, do I need to update IRCC for my PR application regarding the new work permit?
Thanks for your help.
No there won't be any issues and you don't need to update them .
