I'm also submitting mine - did you notice a change in the document requirements? most people I know didn't have to submit any residence proof but the document checklist i downloaded seems to mandate the documents in Appendix A.
What did you submit for that?
Also - such a pain to get the photos right. The scans don't meet the pixel density and the authorized photographers can't give me digital copies. May it's just men. Would love to hear your inputs.

As of sometime last year, ALL PR renewal applications (even a person that has never left Canada) must provide 2 pieces of evidence of residing in Canada. This does NOT mean a person needs 5 years worth of evidence; just 2 pieces (maybe from diferrent time periods) within that 5 year window.
ah cool! I managed to consolidate last 2.5 years of consecutive paystubs.
Do you think that will suffice along with the bank statements?
I could also submit the Notice of assessment but I haven't done my 2023 taxes yet and would rather not wait for the assessment notice to arrive.
Thanks agian

I submit a PR card renewal online application for my husband on 17 Jan, 2024. It's showing submitted that's all. Even I didn't receive any confirmation email. 
I have a question regarding travel outside Canada.
I landed in 2019 March, left Canada in 2019 July and returned in 2022 April. During this period of absence, I was in Singapore, Australia, Indonesia and India. Do I need to mention a separate travel for each trip or just once absence that includes a mention of all the places I visited and mention the rest in address history?

I have applied for PR Renewal and mailed all required documents. The tracking showed that they received my package on Dec 11, 2023. I got an email from IRCC on Jan 15, 2024, that they have received my application and will process it.
But later when I checked my application status, I can see the following details as below:
a) How long does it take to receive the PR Card once it is mailed out by IRCC?
b) I have 2 Addresses on my Application (Permanent and Mailing). So will I get the PR Card mailed to my Permanent Address or Mailing address?
But later when I checked my application status, I can see the following details as below:
- We received your application for a permanent resident card on December 11, 2023.
- We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of your application(s) on January 15, 2024.
- We started processing your application on January 15, 2024.
- Your request for a permanent resident card was approved on January 15, 2024. Your Permanent resident card will be mailed to you or if quality assurance is required, made available for you to pick up at an IRCC office.
- Your Permanent Resident card was sent by mail on January 15, 2024.

You have to wonder how the application could have possibly [really] been processed...approved...AND the PR Card printed and mailed, all on Jan 15, 2024.
IRCC will NOT mail PR cards to a mailing address, only the PR's residential address. Assuming the permanent address is your residential address, that is the address the card will likely be mailed to.
It appears that IRCC reports dates of mailing based on when the decision is made to mail the card, not when the card is actually, physically created let alone physically put into whatever conveyance is utilized to mail them. Actual date it is in-the-mail can vary due to physical logistics (there was a period last year, for example, when something interfered with physical printing of cards, leading to a much longer mailing time).
Anecdotal reporting generally indicates five to seven weeks to actually receive the card by mail, with some variability and exceptions, most plus but some less.
Many PR card applications are opened, reviewed, and approved at more or less the same time.
(Such applications are likely considered low complex, and if submitted online would have good odds of being approved almost immediately, the date of the approval being within days or so of when the application is submitted, suggesting these benefit from automated decision-making, and the timeline is perhaps comparable to how some credit card transactions take a couple days to show up in account information online.)
As I noted above, the date card is reported to be mailed appears to be based on when decision is made to mail the card (sent into the queue to be created and mailed), not when the card is actually physically created let alone physically put into whatever conveyance is utilized to mail them.
While scores of anecdotal reports reflect a difference in dates for starting processing, approval, issuance, and mailing, the range for many (maybe even most) is from same day to all done within several days, up to a week or two. Applications not approved within this time period are most likely subject to some level of non-routine processing, which means what happens next and when is largely unpredictable, ranging from weeks more "in process" to those referred to local offices for investigation typically meaning months more, or those referred for Secondary review which can range from many months up to a year or so (although we have not seen many anecdotal reports of the those taking nearly a year for awhile now, so maybe IRCC has improved its processing efficiency for those in Secondary review).
It would be no surprise if there is a higher percentage of non-routine cases reflected in forum discussions, and anecdotal reporting here, because of the greater probability of forum participation among those apprehending concerns.
