Congrats! I got mine too. It seems they really process them in a queue as first come first serve. Unlike how they handle the immigration applications.
Anyways now this is over and we can enjoy the summer :)
Re: PR apps, if it were me going through cases in order and I see one that's gonna be a lot harder than others, I may decide to shuffle that one to the back or put it aside for a while...

Wow, so they're processing cards for applicants who landed in March now, that's slower than ever. :(

Great news. Thanks for keeping us posted.
Well when I thought it was another month for me - that was one month ago. And looking at the processing time, another month now would still be optimistic. I have to travel out of the country in another 2.5 months - should be doable to receive the card by then I guess... but you never know.

Even if you don't get it on time, as a German citizen you won't have any issues returning to Canada without the PR card.

They update ecas with completed status under the PR section. 2 days after that you get your card. That should be sufficient indication.

no I mean before I actually receieve it , will there be a table telling '' under process'' , I just need to know because then I can check my mail box everyday. After I get the card, who cares what happens there :p
