PR Card Renewal & New - 2022 Processing Timeline
- Thread starter GuyanaGirl
- Start date
Hello everyone,
I have one question. I am permanent resident from Oct 2017. With PR CARD expiration date dec 2022.
1. I applied for PR renewal application delivered on 31st May 2022.
I have not received any AOR yet.
2. I applied for citizenship and application delivered on 8th June 2022.
I received AOR on 13th June.
When I tried to track request online for pr card status, it shows my citizenship status but nothing about PR renewal status.
Any clues or pointers much appreciated.
Thanks

Hi,
Have some similar experience for myself and almost all of my friend.
Our first application to IRCC was for wp from my employer. Employer always gave toronto office address as primary address as it was applied from india. So we got wp in office.
Now during pr application 2017 we provided toronto home address. So was expecting PR card at home. But it was delivered to my office address.
So after that all my friends whoever applied pr called ircc and same story primay address was office address. They updated to home address
.There is some bug in there system from so long time
General consensus: STAY in Canada and WAIT to apply ONLY when you are in compliance with the Residency Obligation. That is, only when you have been IN Canada 730 days within the relevant five year time period.
PROBLEM for you is that will likely not be until March 2024, two years from the date you returned to Canada. Remember, as of the fifth year anniversary of the date you landed, your compliance with the RO will be based on days IN Canada during the preceding five years. (Basically you cannot meet the RO during your first five years since you were outside Canada more than 1096 days since your landing in 2018, meaning you have been in breach since the day you were outside Canada more than 1096 days since your landing in 2018; so now there is no five year time frame within which you can be IN Canada 730 days until March 2024.)
New PR card application form will allow you to apply and specifically ask for H&C relief allowing you to keep PR status despite your breach of the RO. And an application a year or so after you have arrived back here and are settled here would have a very good, perhaps a near excellent chance of being OK. But you are in breach, so there is no guarantee.
This situation has been discussed in more depth recently in other topics, but I do not have a link handy.
I landed in YYZ on May 14th with my husband. I was only able to link my husband's PR process on GCKey last week. However, I couldn't link mine (as a dependent). I tried everything. Does anyone have a tip on how to do this?
Yes you can apply. I know many people who are few days short that applied these days and got approved due to issues like covid.
you can apply any day! You just have to count from the day you are applying that if you had physical presence for 2 years in the time frame of 5 years before the day of applying, it is safe to apply.
Thanks for a detailed reply.
I am thinking of still going ahead and applying for the renewal after the 28th of March 2023. In the worst case scenario, I might have to provide strong documentation and proof which I am willing to provide. I shall keep you guys updated here.
I just wanted to know if someone else had been in the same situation as I am.
There is an option to link your PR card application to your EE profile. You need to search by entering your details exactly (with spaces / dots) like how it is displayed in CoPR / Passport; It should get linked ...
Has anyone applied for PR card renewal online? I have attached all required documents, but the submit button is still disabled. I am not sure what I need to do in order to enable it? Documents filled in :
1. IMM 5444
2. IMM 5644
3. Primary identity document (passport)
4. Photos (front and back)
5. PR card
6. Fee payment receipt
7. Consent and declaration
Except for the online form IMM 5444 everything else has a status of ready to submit. I am not sure what else is required in order to be able to submit it online?

Anyone who has a landing date after 21 April 2022 got their first time PR card / got any updates regarding the PR card application ?
My GC Key is linked but my first time PR card application from 2016 is still reflecting on it. Says document expired of course. Now my application for renewal reached CIC on 30th May and I am awaiting AOR. Would the AOR reflect on the GC key automatically, even if the email does not come through. Some forum members like ride_bike had mentioned that they did not actually get an AOR, but could see it on the GC Key.
