Mine is approved today (landed on Dec 11).
Well, I had to visit my country on vacation after landing. I was able to get PRTD in 4 days and could return with that from India. I got multiple entry PRTD with 2 years validity.

Well, I had to visit my country on vacation after landing. I was able to get PRTD in 4 days and could return with that from India. I got multiple entry PRTD with 2 years validity.
Just received e-mails from CIC and checked my account. The system says "Your application was approved. Check your messages below for details."Just called cic (waited more than 40 mins) and found out that me and my family have to resend photos
I asked the officer if we will have to wait for 2 more months after sending the new photos, and she told that we may wait even more, because picture renewal que is so long in nowadays...
I complained that we paid utmost attention while taking the photos and never expected a failure.
She answered back that their machine is so picky!
Now, I have to find a good photographer, get proper photos, re-send them to Canada and wait for 2 more months...
Even though there is no message below, I believe we will receive the PR Cards soon.
Landed: October 12
PR Card photos requested: Nov 30
New photos sent: Dec 12
PR Cards approved: Jan 31
PR card received: Not yet. We will see.
Its better to call CIC and update your address. I was staying at different address at the time of landing, post landing I have moved to new address. I called CIC and updated the address.
I landed in Vancouver through POE on Jan. 23, 2018. But after multiple attempts, I was still not able to link PRC application to my GC account. Do some people also have that problem? I think I have made all answers accurately input, but still no tracking result. Someone help?
Hi,
I am landed on Dec 20 , 2017 at Prescott POE.
I think i am planning to go india on may be 9th or 10th February and i dont thing so i am gonna get my PR card by then.
So, Can you please share that how you applied for PRTD and what documents they needed and howmuch days they took?
I t should be strong reason to get PRTD(They ask specific reason that why you left country without getting PR card)?
Thanks in advance.
If you need to resend the photos, they will send the Request Letter to your email on file.
But this process is really slow, for me, they put note for new photo request on Nov 14, 2017, but they send me the request on Dec 7,2017.
Almost take 3 weeks to receive the request from CIC.
I suggest you to call CIC to check the photo around 50 days after landing.
Thanks for taking the time to reply sir!
So - even though I do NOT have my PR Card application connected to my CIC account, they will still email me if there is an issue with the photos?
Apologies if I am repeating myself but I just want to be sure.
Yes, they will send you the notification or request letter for photo to your email on file.
You do not have to link the PR card application to your CIC account, but you should link it if you can.
Link the application only can be a used as a reference when your application get approved, and it will show you the card # and expired date for your record.
Usually, PR card has 5 years validation from the card been printed.
Yes, one photo is good enough for initial PR card application.
And they also need one photo only all the time, usually the photo with your name and DOB is attached on the COPR, the one extra is just for their back up.
Current wait time is around ~50-55 days. They are currently processing landings on and around Dec 10.
