eCOPR: August 24, 2021
linked PR card application to GIC account on August 26, 2021
VO: Etobicoke

Still waiting for the PR card. No update in the GIC account and portal account.
Some of my friends have already got PR cards within 7 days of eCOPR.

Starting to get worried as I have travel plan on December :(
Please let me know if anyone knows any update regarding Etobicoke VO. Thanks

Hi Bepositive09 and congratulations. My Ecopr was 29 June, VO Etobicoke and my card is still in process. Did you reach out to IRCC at any point of your PR Card process??

ECOPR: February 4th, 2021 (Etobicoke office)
Photos submitted online on the PR portal: January 5th, 2021
Photos are still in review with IRCC

I've tried to reach out to them multiple times. It seems like no one knows what's going on in the Etobicoke office. The IRCC agent sent a couple of messages to their office a few months ago but they never responded to them. I have an urgent business trip coming and have no idea what to do.

Any suggestions?

Has anyone resubmitted their photos and PR card application if their processing timeline is over 180 days? I noticed here: https://www.cic.gc.ca/english/helpcentre/answer.asp?qnum=720&top=4 that it says to do so.

If you did not get your PR card after six weeks have passed
If you are waiting for your PR card and six weeks have passed from the time the card was mailed to you and you did not get it, you must complete a solemn declaration. Mailing instructions are provided at the bottom of the form.

Note: if 180 days have passed since the PR card was mailed, you will have to apply for a PR card, fill in section G (solemn declaration), and include the fee payment.

This is insane! It does not make sense to take so long to review the photos. My photos were delivered on April 6th by mail and my photos are also still in review. I called them a few times and they mentioned that it is sort of normal because some applicants are still waiting from January and February. But that is not normal when others submit photos in June-August and revive PR cards in September - October…

In terms of suggestions, I see 3 options:

1) apply for PRTD outside of Canada (this option is a bit risky though)
2) travel to Canada via US border on a car (you can show your ECOPR)
3) Have someone in Canada receive your PR card and send it to you by courier internationally (this option is also kind of risky)

Good Afternoon folks,
Got PR Confirmation on: 09 September, 2021
EcoPR Expires on: 10 November, 2021. Location: Etobicoke
I read this thread and saw people who are waiting sice April, this is insane. On myportal it says my photo is in Review with IRCC.
If the EcoPR expires do we need to re-apply for it?
Thanks & Regards
