Steps to check PR Card Status !!

[Canashare]

I have landed at saskatoon office on 6 Nov 2018, visa officer said you will receive yr PR card by mail, i have to travel my backhome on 5 jan 2019 is there any possiblity that i can get my PR card before that and any one can suggest me how to check the status of PR card online?

Hi. It is definitely impossible you will receive your PR Card before you travel by Jan 05, 2019. Counting the days from the date you landed, you will expect the following:
Landed - November 06, 2018
Possible ghost update in system - January 06, 2019 (expect more delays for Holidays), lets say January 15, 2018 (to be sure)
Possible Approval in System - January 15 to 20, 2019
Possible Delivery - January 31, 2019
If your travel is very important and its about life and death situation , and if you need urgency in getting your PR Card, there is a form and requirements for you to submit and complete to IRCC, if they will approve, then you'll get your PR Card before January 05 and you're good to go for travel.

Yes those are correct numbers for you to be connected to the agent, however, you may be disconnected automatically if there is no available agent to answer you, and you have to dial again the IRCC number and press all the numbers 2-3-2-0, until you will get connections to anyone from them, the best time to call is 3-4PM weekdays. Cheers!

Hi everyone. I landed on March 13 at Point Roberts. I tried to follow these step to check the status of my new pr card but it only said "Based on the information you entered, we found no applications.". Anyone has any ideas?
As it said at cic website, i should get it by end of April ( 45 days). However its not guaranteed i believe, and i need to go back to my hometown at the beginning of June.
Thanks

Just to update. I called CIC and they told me that my Canadian address was never entered. So they took my address and told me to update my phone number through change of address form or raise a case (they sent me link to update phone number).

Would strongly suggest all to contact CIC as soon as 60 days is up.

Hi can you please share the details that how can we contact IRCC and the steps as i am trying to do so but unfortunately never make it.
Can you share that link so that i can also check my address details??
Please reply at earliest .

Hello Friends I though many people who recently landed might want to check PR card status then follow below steps. Me and many of my friends have already done it. we all were on express entry (SINP).

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.)

Hi when i tried to link my profile it say No data found, is it something that i should worry about as today i completed 60 calendar days after my soft landing and i am currently in my home country.

Yes call them at phone listed on their website.
Also check your spam mail/mail box to be sure there was no communication from them (for ex. Asking for photos)

No i was not able to connect on call.

But received a mail few days back by IRCC and they have mentioned that they dispatched it on 6th June itself.

It's the lack of UPSC coz i had taken their mail box services and they clearly denied that they haven't received my card.

Now i will contact UPSC Mail box person to enquire

This is really helpful and hope chaps struggling to access their PR card find it useful. Just got mine linked up and spot on.
