PR Card (New/Renewal) Processing Timeline 2021

[Ola_NL]

I had sent three applications in one envelope and below are timeline.

1. All three AOR received Nov. 25: We received your application for a permanent resident card on September 7, 2021.
2. For my and my daughter application was approved on November 30, 2021 and received both cards on December 04, 2021

For my wife application still its show "In-Process", Hopefully it will come soon!

Anyone have similar situation like, within one package 2 applicant were approved and one is still "In-Process"?
We all three had similar travel history so not sure why my wife application is still "In-process" and other two are approved and PR card received.

You take high risk when you apply for PR card renewal while in breach of RO. There are very few ways to loose PR status, one of them is to apply for any kind of immigration benefit while being in breach of RO. I can't comprehend why anyone would do that, instead of waiting few month to be in compliance and only then applying for card renewal. It's almost as if some people have subconscious desire to be found in breach of RO and stripped of their PR status.

Permanent Resident Card

1. We received your application for a permanent resident card on June 3, 2021.
2. We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of your application(s) on September 28, 2021.
3. We started processing your application on September 28, 2021.

This is my status since September 28th. Nothing has changed since. No communication from IRCC. Anyone in the same boat?
My wife's application was about 1.5 months earlier and was approved fairly quickly. My application is basically the same considering travelling.
Any recommendations?
I am in Victoria, BC.
Thanks

I have been following this forum to estimate the time it takes to get first PR card as a new immigrant to Canada. I am an Ontario PNP candidate who received COPR in Apr 2021. I landed in Toronto, Canada on 04th Oct, 2021. I linked my PR card application with my GC Key account on 09 Oct 2021. And just yesterday I received an email on my GC Key account that my PR card application is approved and it was mailed which can take upto 6 weeks for delivery.

My timelines for PR card application so far are below:

Type of Application: First PR Card(Ontario PNP candidate)
COPR Received: Apr 2021
Date of First Landing: 04 Oct 2021
Date when PR card application was received by IRCC: 04 Oct 2021 (I gave an address for PR card delivery at landing itself)
Date when PR card application got approved: 06 Dec 2021
PR card received in mailbox: <Yet to arrive>

Hope this info will help people who will be in the same boat in future.

Note: Linking the application does not impact your PR card application timelines in any way, it is just for us to get email notification when there is an update on our application.

Thanks!
HS

Hi,
Myself and my spouse landed on 14th October 2021. We had two copies of COPR, the immigration officer kept one, that was with our photograph and returned the second copy after signing.
Are we supposed to do any thing else to get our PRCards ? It's 8 weeks now, there's no update.
I can't understand which linking of PR application with the GCkey you are talking about ? Please help me.

This is a wrong forum to ask about PR cards for newly landed residents. You should ask it in other forums dedicated to newcomers. This forum is for people who landed in Canada more than 5 years ago and are applying for PR card renewal, or those who landed 3+ years ago and could be in breach of RO, or those who are concerned about RO breach/compliance in future.

I'm wondering how long it takes (on average) for the card to be delivered? I have a flight booked December 17th.

I received my card in my mailbox today, I am so happy and now I can confirm plans for flying out to my home country this Friday.
