I’ve submitted PR card renewal application online on Mar 17 and I still haven’t received the new card, here’s what happened:
Mar 17: Application submitted online
Apr 4: Called IRCC for update as I couldn’t link my application. I was told that my application was at “final stage”, after finalised my application the card would be sent for printing and mail
Apr 15: Still couldn’t link application, called again, agent said my card still not sent for printing and mailed yet
Apr 22: Raised webform and got replied the application still in process
Apr 30: Raised webform to enquired if I’ve ever missed any communication from IRCC, the agent replied “We verified the information you provided regarding the surpassed processing time and have forwarded it to the responsible office.”
May 9: Still haven’t heard or received anything
Also for the issue that I couldn’t link my application, after numerous emails, on May 2 the technical team finally replied they would look into the issue, but until today May 9 still no reply. So I cannot confirm whether my application already had “Final decision “ or still “In process”.
Can the experts from the forum please share, from your experience do you think my application has gone for further review?
I’d also like some advice that, is it ok to contact my MP for help at this stage or is it still early?
As this is my first time contacting MP, what kind of information I should include and is there anything I should aware of?
Also on the MP website it says “The expected date for the return of the election writs is Monday, May 19, 2025.” Does that mean I can only contact them after May 19?
Thank you very much for the help
