So, I just called IRCC now. They told me my card was sent to production but they had some issues printing it. They couldn't tell me what the issue was though. Has anyone encountered this before?

Hi,
I am a new PR and landed in Canada on Jun 3, 2022. I received a letter on July 28, 2022 asking me to re-submit my photographs. I did so twice and I have proof that it has been delivered. However, when I raised a webform (again twice), I got a response saying my photos are still not on file. And ofcourse, you can't get through when you call their helpline number!
Has anyone faced a similar situation? What actions have you taken?
Is it better to submit a fresh paper application for PR card?
Thanks in advance!

its been a week . SADMy application status also changed to Decission Made but the GCKey account shows processing. Does this mean my application was approved or is there a chance for them to Deny?
Permanent Resident Card
- We received your application for a permanent resident card on July 27, 2022.
- We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of your application(s) on August 22, 2022.
- We started processing your application on August 22, 2022.
Yes, I and many others are in the same boat. My application is stuck for over 4 months now, card was sent for printing in mid August, and since then printing facility is unable to print and also they failed to notify applicants with a reason. See this post:

You need to call IRCC and get your application number so you can link it to cic.gc.ca (also called gckey)

Oh, wow. That's not good. Over 4 months is crazy. So, the issue is on their side and not necessarily with our photos? When I asked specifically about that, the agent couldn't what the issue is. Guess we have to keep calling them until we receive the cards.
I suspect all those applications that are stuck in printing facility are Online application. Those who sent paper applications, some are processed within a month. I believe there may be issues with our photos, but all this is linked with PR Portal (system full of bugs), and they are unable to solve the issue.
I am a paper applicant and still stuck at decision made in the ecas. No card yet. I sent my paper application in July.
Welcome to the club brother. Waiting for my first PR card. Same case, card printing issues. Looking at the timeline, it looks like people who applied/landed in August are stuck. Is it only for 1 application ? apparently not is what they claim. It's been over a week. How long does it take to reprint the cards. Do they just have 1 printer doing it ? This is really stupid.
NOT yet but I am guessing PR card takes 5 - 7 business days practically to arrive after being mailed
