Well... after 63 days waiting, still no PR card and im flying to Canada next week. I was going to apply for PRTD but then processing time went down to 42 and silly me I thought I would get it in time...

Lets hope I can make it to Canada.... It wont be March 15 yet, going from Visa exempt country, and also I still have my last work permit which is invalid since I landed, but the air carrier doesn't know that. (I would say im visitor if I had a return flight back to my country). Probably they wont even ask..

Once in Canada I should make it just with Passport and CoPR.


Has anyone done something like this lately?

I am landing in March. Is this good idea to attach both size of pic (50 x 70 & 34 x 45) with PR Card Form.

Landed in Jan, received photo request today.

anybody has idea how long does it take after re-submit the photo?

I am traveling soon, really frustrating

 

[naticom]

You don't have to prepare for the form because they'll make that for you. However, better bring the 50x70 photos and insist using these new photos when you're at the visa office.

Hi bukeluke,

What is your status on ECAS ?

It was a real nightmare we need to travel with our PR card or PR travel document on/after March 15, 2016.
I spent CAD 300 for a single PR travel document returning in Canada, I can't make any other trips without PR card on hands.

The status is "completed". I won't travel out of canada until got PR card. Too risky, I will try to travel around canada like toronto Montreal

Hi, I will be landing soon after I received my Passport back.

Do I need (or) can I take photographs when I go for landing to give at Boarder office? I want to avoid these photographs request after landing. Its been 2 and half year after I visited my parents so I wanted to get PR card before I travel..


Your inputs and suggestions will help me a alot. Thanks!

It seems ECAS doesn't show new PR card application status.
I hate this waiting game!
