I WILL be forever grateful to this forum. Seriously.
During my CEC application, I was going insane trying to get an employment letter from a company I had worked for that had since rebranded. I contacted them over and over with no luck. Out of desperation, I posted here. Within a few days, the company reached out to me and provided the letter I needed. It was a total godsend.
First of all, thank you to everyone here. This community really came through for me when I needed it most.
Fast forward to now, and I’ve hit another confusing step. I’m hoping someone here can clarify it.
I recently got the email from IRCC inviting me to log into the PR Confirmation Portal asking me to confirm my presence in Canada and upload a photo. When I signed in, I saw two sections.
That last point is what’s making me second-guess. Since this is my first PR card, am I supposed to go ahead and complete that section too?
The email only asked me to confirm my presence in Canada and upload a photo. It didn’t mention anything about filling out IMM 5444 or submitting a separate PR card application. So now I’m unsure if I’m supposed to touch that second section at all or if IRCC will automatically process my PR card based on the confirmation and photo I already submitted. I really don’t want to do anything that could delay or complicate the process.
If anyone else has been through this, I’d really appreciate your insight.
Thank you in advance and again, huge thanks to this forum for being such a lifeline during the whole PR journey!

I recently got the email from IRCC inviting me to log into the PR Confirmation Portal asking me to confirm my presence in Canada and upload a photo. When I signed in, I saw two sections.
- Confirm presence in Canada and upload photo – I already completed this part, just like the email instructed.
- PR Card Application section – This part threw me off. It shows “Application Status: Initiated” and includes forms like IMM 5444 and a document checklist. The portal says this section is for those who are renewing or replacing their PR card, didn’t receive their card within 180 days of becoming a PR, or are applying for their first PR card.
