Hello everyone,

I would like to know your insights on my situation -

I received my PR portal invitation email on November 9th and a reminder on November 10th and I replied to both with my details. But I had to travel urgently on November 12th because of an emergency and I will have to be in India until Jan. I haven't received my portal credentials yet and I have my work permit with me. How should I go about my situation? Will it be a 4 month long wait like some people? My friend who is travelling in December is ready to get my card if it is delivered in that timeframe. I would greatly appreciate your input.

In case of emergency you can go to India, even in case if you do not have PR card when you will be planning to come back to Canada you can apply for permanent resident travel document (PRTD). So don't worry you can leave.
 
Got 1st portal email on 7th Nov, replied same day.

PR portal invitation email - November 12 replied the same day
Still haven't received the portal credentials until now. How long does it usually takes? The PR portal invitation email is from Calgary
I got the credential email after 8 days from the Calgary office

I'm in the same boat...got the first email on Nov. 11th, responded same day and still waiting. I believe my VO is Ottawa (Operations Support Centre).

From this and other threads, it looks like it can take several weeks for credentials email - hopefully it won't take that long for us!
We are in the same boat first email on 8th Nov, responded on 10th Nov had 3 reminders since and nothing as of 16th Nov 8:30 AM. VO is Ops center Ottowa

Hi, I got the first email on Nov 7, I replied the same day and I still waiting :/ for my credentials.
Quick question, when you replied the "Pre-email – Invitation", did you get an automatic response ?
Thanks
