Sorry but I don't quite remember. As for me, I waited until being able to gather enough residential proof.
PRCard Renewal 2023
- Thread starter myreplies1975yh
- Start date
No sooner than 9 months before the expiry date on your current PR card.
This information is appreciated, in particular, because it is a clear indication that automated decision-making is being employed for SOME online PR card applications.
It illustrates a totally separate timeline for those applications compared to paper applications and compared to other online applications that do not qualify for automated decision-making.
As discussed elsewhere, assuming a work-flow similar to that employed in pilot projects going back to 2018, it is likely the online application is machine-screened to identify and separate applications meeting the criteria for automated decision-making, and then machine-screened based on triage criteria as to complexity of case, and then ONLY LOW COMPLEXITY applications get the automated decision-making. Medium and High Complexity cases return to the routine process. (Of course the procedures may be different; we need more information from IRCC about this.)
While many of the factors that will likely make an application High Complexity are more or less obvious (concerns about Residency Obligation compliance; perception that PR is outside Canada; H&C cases), we do not know what distinguishes a Medium Complexity case from a Low Complexity case. Generally, nonetheless, PRs who are cutting-it-close in regards to RO compliance (no idea how close) and those who are not more or less clearly well-settled in Canada (or at least whose circumstances suggest they have not yet made Canada their in-fact permanent home), probably do not meet the criteria for Low Complexity and probably should NOT expect to benefit from automated decision-making.

Never even thought of an automated process being in place for approving these PR cards, so thanks for sharing that very real possibility. I was hoping for a quick approval after seeing the timelines in this thread, but that doesn't look like it's going to happen given that my wife (PR) is not living in Canada and thus likely put us in a higher complexity case.

Hello Everyone. Sorry for the redundant question. But can someone route me to the right page or thread to understand:
- Why do we need PR Card Renewal application to be linked to GCKey
- How to do that
- When to do that
Any help is deeply appreciated.

Where do i apply it online ? I only see link for postal application: Application to get, renew or replace a Permanent Resident Card (PR Card) - Canada.ca
Also, Me and my son (5 years old) need to apply for PR card renewal, but he has been in Canada only for 1 year in past five years, I have been in Canada for more than 3 years. Does he also require to meet the residency obligations?

Hello everyone.
I applied online for PR renewal on Jan 8 2024. The application shows submitted. When I try to link it to my IRCC account, it linked my first PR application from back in 2019. Is it because its too early ? Any advise on this will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

That is correct, it is too early to link. You would only be able to link renewal application once the processing starts
