Same as my case, I only received the letter one month after I got the email when I called CIC. Therefore I called today and they checked no need to mail again as in the system they could check ithe PR card mailed last week

Hi Everyone,

Finally got some good news.

Landed 1st Nov 2015 YVR.
CIC received new Photos on 18th Feb 2016 ( Sent out via Fedex so confirmed delivered)
29th Feb AOR email received by PR Card Processing Center.

Today CIC agent advised me tht PR Card sent out on 16th March.

SO it took 136 days from landing date ( 1st Nov 2015 ) and 27 days from photos received date ( 18th Feb 2016 )

Hopefully I'll receive it before Easter Break because agent said it may get delayed. she also said I have to wait for 6 weeks from 16th March.

No email aft AOR email on 29th Feb , no ECAS update at all. it just says Completed. I tried to long in using CASE Number Provided via AOR email on 29th Feb but it didn't work.

I'll update as soon as I'll receive card in hand.

What did your letter say? I found this one different than people got. It came with a letter only. However, at the bottom it does say,
"if you have recently sent photographs disregard this letter". Need to call
