Landed on 25th April, 2017
Got a Photo retake request on the 26th June, 2017
The new pics reached them on the 30th June, 2017
No PR Card yet as of 17th August, 2017
116 days over since landing
are u able to comprehend what was wrong with your first photos...? do they remove the photo affixed on your COPR ....and use it for PR...........or they take another photo ......which is returned by VFS without attachign to the other COPR copy...??..........and what about stamps issue.........? is it necessary to have both photos stamped and with name and dob information on back....??

Hi there
I landed on 25th September. How do we know from GCKEY MyCIC account about the progress of PR Card and when do we see it normally after landing.
Thanks in advance

10-may-2017: Landed in Toronto
25-may-2017: returned back to my home country to finish work commitments
19-July-2017 : received email requesting new photos
28-July-2017 : Photos received by IRCC Immigration Canada (photos was sent on 24th of july via dhl from outside canada)
i am still waiting my PR card but i guess it i should be soon considering other comments.
I processed permanent resident travel document to get back to canada. it took 10 days processing and was simple .
Rabih..........can u share form which country ......you sent photos..........and whether PRTD process is simple.......or is there any risk..........can they deny PRTD.....on any reason........if one comes in his home country after short landing to finish some commitments.......

Hey yours is the same case as mine. Did you get any updates?
Still nothing man. As I mentioned above, last week I was told that it apparently takes 6 weeks after they note your pics as received / upload them. I gave up, gonna just wait.

Dear
Here is the procedure that I copy paste from another thread.
Follow below steps only after you have landed. It gives only 5 attempts in one day.

1) Login to CIC account.
2) Go to section "Link an existing application to this account". Click on "Link application to this account" button.
3) Select category as PR Card
4) Select "Unique Client Identifier (UCI) and Family Name"
5) Fill required details (please make sure capital, small, comma etc.)
6) Provide landing date in "Date you became a permanent resident"
7) Click on search my application.
8) after application searched make sure you submit application else not linked.

One you have successfully linked your application it will shown you as "Submited" status and once it is ready for dispatch it will go into "Approved" status.

If you receive any photo request then it will not change any status. Regularly check PR card processing time on CIC website as photo request or PR card approval both come in last 5-10 days (i.e if processing time is 63 days then after 55 days you will be able to see some movement.)

Google "CIC halifax" and you'll find a phone number. :) BTW the waiting time is approximately 45 minutes besides whatever they mention on the call.

A new thread started on my application today. I'm waiting on PR cards for myself (landed May 11), my wife and my daughter(both landed May 19). I received an update on my wife's PR card application asking for a copy of COPR. This is getting so frustrating now. And this update is just for my wife. Not for me or my daughter.

Did anyone else receive such a request?

Here is her application history.
Landing Date: May 19
Photo request: July 24
Photos received: Aug 4
COPR copy Request: Oct 3
