PR CARD RENEWAL SUBMITTED March 2026

[MaheshMp]

Applied online on March 11, 2026. No correspondence yet, not able to link to gckey.

Called this morning and they said they were still doing completeness checks, then they put the application in the main system, after which you can link which generates an application number.

They said they were working on applications from February 3rd. What? How is the processing time 27 days, if they're over a month behind?

I applied on March 11th too, I called IRCC today morning and got same response like yours. That they are working on applications from February 3rd

There are other posts where people have got their cards who have applied in March.

looks like IRCC just gives a stale response

The JSON trick works for me. The status id just updated from 16 to 20, and I was able to link to gckey now. There, the status is "
Final decision - March 30, 2026: Your application is in progress. We will send you a message once the final decision has been made."

Application date: March 16, 2026. Not bad, only two weeks of processing.

Did you apply march 11 or 16?
