Landed on March 16. No PR card yet. Not even a ghost update in profile.
(Very) end of April here, nothing for me either :(
Glad to know I'm not the only one, but hoping all of us hear good news.

Your date is long enough ago that you might want to contact IRCC soon?

I am too hoping all of us hear good news soon. Thank you. I contacted IRCC in early June. They told me my card should be mailed shortly. I have been waiting since then. I guess shortly means something else now in light of the pandemic.

Does anyone landing on March 7th in Toronto airport and haven't received the PR card yet?
I land on March 7th, in Toronto and currently in US. However, the status on CIC is still submitted. No ghost update.
Any suggestions what should I do? Need to go to Canada soon due to some family issue. (Unfortunately, I lost my COPR)
that is bad because you need the COPR for the citizenship later.

A small update - since the fate of my PR card is still uncertain and I want to return Canada as soon as possible,
I had applied for PRTD on 9th July and I received passport request email on 26th July from Canadian embassy in Abu Dhabi.

I sent my passport to VFS Dubai (accepting passport package only via courier - and its completely idiotic and ridiculous)

1. VFS allows passport package only via courier
2. VFS allows passport package fees only via demand draft
3. One needs to visit bank to get demand draft, and for 50 dirham VFS fee, I had to pay 50 dirham commission
4. One needs to visit courier store to ship it. Not to mention visits to printer & stationary shop to get things printed etc.

so in short, VFS is making lives difficult by making us roam around the town rather than making it easy. As Dubai is completely open, they should allow in person dropoff.

That's not bad. I applied for PRTD on 3rd June and still haven't heard back from them.

You 100% need to contact them about loosing it, go through process, likely sign a solemn declaration and pay for copr to be replaced. That document is worth more than you think. You need it to apply for citizenship, social and retirement benefits etc down the line.

It's worth more than your pr card sef. On citizenship ceremony day, they take back your pr card.

For others, make sure you keep your copr safe!!!
