Finally decision made but no more updates. does anybody know how long does it take from when they make a decision to when they mail the card?.

Also has any of you have any updates during the weekend?I am afraid that mine would de delayed due to the long weekend.
Hi,

Speaking from my experience.
My status changed to "Decision Made" on Thursday August 29. When I clicked on the status the application update still said "We started processing your application on August 14"
On Friday, August 30 - the status changed to "Complete". When I clicked on the status the application update said "We approved your application on August 29. We mailed out your PR Card on August 29"

Hope this helps.

Yes, you can apply for PR Card if you have completed the required duration of stay.

I just received my PR card.

My final timeline is
August 8 - card received at IRCC
August 14 - acknowledgement of receipt
August 14 - started processing
August 29 - approved and mailed out

September 4 - cards received in my mailbox

For those of you looking to travel, keep in mind that Canada Post makes evening deliveries too. On their website their delivery timings are Mon to Fri 9am to 8pm.

I checked the mailbox at 7.30pm today and there was nothing.

After seeing DR-DARKMAN post, I decided to check again at about 9pm and voila. There it was.

I'm so glad.
