It shows Decision Made on the main page, hopefully it's coming to my mail sooooooon!
It was mailed from IRCC on June 8 and I found it in my mailbox yesterday! So much quicker than I expected and than most of my other experience with the government!
Good luck for the rest of you~

It only works if you are in Canada and it's not easy to get to an actual person. Hope you get through to someone!

a little more than 1000, I applied about half a year after my old card expired. If I applied before the old expiry date, I would be 'cutting it close' with just ~800 days. Didn't need much travel outside of Canada amidst covid, so not a big deal for me. And fortunately at the time of my app, the process is faster (av. 60 days as opposed to 140+ days back in 2021)

31 May 2022- Ghost Update on PR Card Application
08 June 2022- Notification in GCKEY, Card Mailed via Post
10 June 2022- PR Card Received by Post

To everybody waiting: The process is starting to really speed up after the whole mess of the pandemic.
The process took 58 days for a new PR card after landing in my case.

Had the same issue before but a forumer helped me out. Make sure your place of birth as shown in passport matches with what you type when you are linking your application. It worked for me. :)

Same identical place of birth info as original passport you came in during PR landing, with comma, space, full stop whatever is there.

6-8 days is quite normal for mail. Some luckier people get it in 2-3 days. I don't think there is any need to worry.
