Hi All,

I received an update said the card was approved and mailed out.

I provided a friend’s address in Calgary. Could anyone please advise how long it will take and ... what’s my chance of receiving the card ...

Thanks a lot!

Give it a week at least...
And your chances of receiving the card depends on what your friend will do with it :D:D

Just kidding don't worry you'll get it soon

So guys, based on what I read in this thread pretty much everyone gets a photo resubmission request?

May I ask how the card is considered approved? The expiry date says 2/22/2024, so I assume the card was produced on 2/22. However the status updated on 2/26... so when shall I expect it? Thanks!

Considered approved on the day it turns to approved on the system..and that's presumably when they mail it...

I'm not aware of how they work but I assume the card won't be mailed on the exact same day it's printed...

Then in this case, it would be mailed 2/26... I would give it a week?

Thanks so much! Sorry I was just nervous wrecking about if I can finally receive the card then just pack up and move.

Anyone landed on or around January 16th 2019 got their card approved ?. I haven’t received any ghost updates, approval or any emails asking for photo submission either. Can anyone please inform me if the photo submission request comes by postal mail at the address provided when you land or do they send an email or does it come to the cic account. Thank you

When I called CIC yesterday, they said they were processing applications as of January 6th 2019. My photo request came to my email. I don't think it will go to your CIC account. My CIC account doesn't say anything about photos even though I had a photo request. I believe some people received photo request in mail.
