Hi guys . I had submitted a second application ( sept 2020) for renewal due to some missing docs in the original application(July 2020). However , my original application went thru and I got my PR card renewed a couple of months back . In my second application I had included a letter saying why I am resubmitting it . Anyway, today I recieved AOR for my second application. Could someone tell me what’s going to happen now.

When is the earliest we can apply for a card renewal? Is it better to apply for PR renewal all family together or one by one as soon as every member reaches 730 days in Canada? My wife and I already met residency obligation last month while our child is about to meet it in a month time+ we're looking to accumulate 1.5-2 months buffer before application+ apply about a month before 5 years since our landing pass. Taking into account processing time now, we'd like to apply as soon as possible.

I received an AOR for my application for my first card a week ago and it has been stuck in submitted status for a week when I check my IRCC account. On further details it states they're assessing my eligibility. I'm not sure why because although I soft landed a couple of years ago, I'm still within RO compliance.

Meet RO (730 days) + 9 months before current card expiry date.

Does anyone know when they usually update the "Processing application" status? I thought they usually update the system every Tuesday but it didnt get updated yesterday.

You should receive it on Nov-30, but depends where you live.
Mine was sent on Monday & I received it on next Monday, my wife's was also sent on a Monday but we received the same Friday.

Finally, my card was mailed on November 23, 2020.

It was received by August 20th and I had received AOR on November 5th.
Congrats, which office processed your application? I sent my docs to the Montreal office and they received on Aug 20th.

They might assume that the card was lost in transit, and send you a new PR card. In that case, the PR card you have now becomes invalid and you must destroy it.
