Congrats!!

I've small query.. In the COPR document, I see that we need to write the name and UCI number behind our photo. But, the photo card specification states that the studio's information should be written behind the photo. Please advise what all should be written behind the photos

The studio information is mostly a standard stamp that the studio puts in. There will be place to write the neame and ICI number as well.

I got the photos from UPS .

Hello Everyone,
I have little doubt.
I got my COPR on April 26 through PR portal. and I was trying to link my PR card application with GC key but failed. So I raised webform and I got reply on May 5th that my PR card has been sent by mail. After that I was able to link my PR card and in account as well it shows that PR card has been approved and mailed to my address on May 5th.

I am seeing trend that it takes 4-5 months after submitting photos to get PR card but in my case I submitted pictures on April 24 and received COPR on April 26 in PR Portal and within 9 days IRCC mailed PR card.

My doubt is there anything suspicious or I am just lucky enough to get PR card this quick?:rolleyes:

Office is Etobicoke.

Congratulations! As far as I know, people submitting the photos through the portal are receiving their PR cards soon while those who mailed the photos are waiting for 4-5 months.

How is possible to link the application? I have received my COPR by email and i sent a photo via mail
Yes, Log in to your IRCC portal, on your home page, you will find a link "Did you apply on paper or don't see your online application in your account? Add (link) your application to your account to access it and check your status online."

Use that link, and choose the "Permanent Resident Card" option for What program did you apply for? Then follow the rest of the steps.

Most of them faced problems in entering the "Place of birth". Try entering the exact words given as per your GCMS notes or your passport.

If all done, you will be able to successfully link the application, and you can see it on your homepage.

Congratulations!

Digital submission via PR confirmation portal are really faster. Most of us, who mailed the photos have to wait longer.

Moreover, they are issuing PR confirmation portal logins on random basis, so, consider yourself as lucky :)

For the Portal how did you send the photos. By mail or you had to upload digital copy ?
