Please do update us when you have received it in your mailbox. I landed the same day you did and received the ghost update on 27th June, called IRCC to find it out it has been processed and sent for printing. Haven't received the second GU yet. Did you receive a message in MyCIC or is it just another GU when it was dispatched?

just ghost update again. No notification, just status change in MyCIC.

I guess it will be obvious when it does happen but where can you see this message in your MyCIC account?

“We mailed your permanent resident card to you. Your card can take up to six weeks to arrive.”

It’s at the bottom, in the documents status section, just above the messages section.
the top left also says Approved.

A final decision has been made. Please see the final decision below.

Call them and see if your photos were accepted. I called them right after the ghost update and I found out they have processed my PR card and sent it for printing.

There's no need to call, if the photos were not accepted, you would get a notification requesting new photos and not a GU.

Received GU on 27th August
Received Approved message in MyCIC account on 1st September that my PR card has been mailed to me.

I just got off the phone with the IRCC and the agent said they are picking up applications received on June 8 (online or mail). I sent my application in early July and haven't received any AOR. But this seems weird as I'm seeing folks who sent applications later get AORs.

I applied for renewal by mail application was received August 8th.
AOR and decision made on August 26th and Pr card was mailed August 31st.
Can’t believe how fast it was.

Was your PR card expired when you applied for renewal or still had a few months of validity?

It had expired back in February 2021.. I guess that may be why it was faster.
