Hello everybody!
I landed in Niagara falls on April 8th and I'm still waiting for my card of course, because its gonna be 46 days next week. But when i called cic yesterday they told me that my address was expired even tho the cbsa officer at the border confirmed with me my canadian address, and told me that my pr card will be sent to my address. The agent on the phone fixed my address yesterday. Now my question is...do i need to wait 46 days from yesterday? or the 46 are still from the day i landed as pr? anybody had the same problem?? Thank you so much!

Hey guys,

Is the expiry of the PR Visa related to the medical exam date of the primary applicant or any other applicant whose 1 year from the date of the medical exam is earlier?

In my case, I am the primary applicant but my wife gave the medical exam before I did, so the PR Visa validity will be related to my wife's medical exam date?

Thanks for you responses.

Cheers
Varun

Sharing my timeline because this forum really helped me while I waited:

Mar 6: Landed at Pearson International, Terminal 3 from Jamaica
Mar 13: Went to Service Canada to look about SIN. No record of me on their file. Had to go back to the airport to re-do landing. The officer did not do it properly initially. The info they had said I landed from Austria via Terminal 1.
Apr 12: New photo request
Apr 13: Sent new photo by regular mail. From Toronto to Nova Scotia is standard 3 days by express. 4-6 days regular. Didn't make any sense to pay for express.
Also, Canada Post explained that because of the public Easter holidays, it would be dispatched on Apr 18.
Apt 28: Card sent to production
May 3: Card sent out by mail
May 9: Card received

Good luck to those still waiting!

Did you receive an email for Photo or did they send you a regular letter mail by post asking for your photo?

I spoke to my Lawyer and he said that it is currently taking an average of 60-70 days for IRCC to send out PR Cards, 45 days mentioned in their website is not true. Lawyer said nothing to worry about the delay.

I believe you can go to India and ask someone to send the PR card by FedEx to India once it arrives here in Canada.
Ok thanks for your reply. I just have a query in my mind that what immigration at delhi airport will ask me like visa and stuff as I don't have a visa now my visa is expiring on 25 may. So am i able to go?

Sorry I don't understand your question. By visa do you mean your Canadian Visa is expiring? When you are going back to India in Delhi airport they won't ask anything because you are a Indian citizen with Indian Passport, but when you want to come back to Canada you need your PR card. You can ask someone in Canada to send your PR card to India by FedEx
