I called CIC yesterday and they said my card was mailed out on June 29th. I landed on April 11th.

I have Canada Post mail forwarding as I just moved house and apparently on the envelope the card is in, it does says "DO NOT FORWARD." I called Canada Post as well, and they said if they receive an envelope saying that, they will just send it back to CIC. I now have to wait about a week and a half hoping that the card gets sent back to CIC and then gets sent back out to me. So crazy. I can't believe it. I paid for mail forwarding and it won't even get forwarded! :(

Good luck to all of you still waiting and congratulations to all that have the card safely :)

I also have similar condition . I landed on 27th may .. My card mailed on 24th august. I had also paid for mail forwarding. But canada post people says that it will be delivered to your original address..
I am also waiting for that only

Hey guys!

I became PR on July 4th 2015.

Just yesterday Sep 15th 2015 I got my PR Card in the mail box.

So it took me 71 days to receive my PR card.

Again I was the sole applicant so not sure if it was pretty fast but either ways all the best to every one awaiting their PR card.

Did you try changing address online? And can you clarify what did you mean by original address ? Did you mean mailing address given at time of landing?

I'm curious how do you change your address online? For me, when I log into ECAS I see a URL/Link:

To change this mailing address, contact us.

I see it linking to this page: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/contacts/index.asp

What do I select? One option is to select Self-serve options -> Change or notify us of a change of address which is at the bottom. Is this where I need to do it? Or do you just do a CSE?

Thank you in advance,
o_o

Where are you staying now? How long it took you to reach your destination in Canada from Niagra?How far away Toronto is from Niagra? Is there any bus available after i cross the border?

Hello All,
I have landed on July 9, 2015 at Rainbow Bridge. I am in USA now. The address in CoPR is wrong. I have updated it online (ECAS) last week but I can see the old address (wrong address). Now, the processing time to get the card is 68 days, that means today is 70th day from the date of landing. Will the send the card to the new address or old address. what should I do now. waiting for ur suggestions. please reply.
Thank you.
