Track your PR card timeline and processing times here

how do you even know that they have accepted your photos ?

If photo is sent by PR portal(online), then you can check status.

Me too im.nova Scotia and copr late May, photoes sent late May and still waitting

I am in the same situation. I sent the photo on May 27 to Halifax office, no update until now. Communicated IRCC several times but they can't give any specific information. They told me about a month ago that Halifax office is currently closed.

As per CIC guideline photo should not be older than 6 months, mine wasn't 6 months old, when I posted it. I was told that the cut off date for the photo is the day you posted the photo. That being said, if my photo is not 6 months old, when I posted it, I should be fine, right?

I am not an expert but I think the chances of them rejecting your photo is a lot more than what you think. I have been waiting for 5.5 months to get my PR card from Montreal office and nothing has happened so far. if a similar timeline happens for you (hopefully not) by the time they open your envelope, the photos will be a year old. The worst thing that could happen is to wait another 6 months after that when you resubmit your photo. I would certainly give ircc a call and inquire about this.

I have been waiting almost 7 months from the same office. IRCC recognizes the delays in processing & that pictures will be outdated. That’s why this portal will be used to submit.

But we can't create by ourselves. Are they forwarding the link?

I am a little confused. how is the portal relevant to @FAhmed88 case? people who got COPR before November are following old workflow and they need to mail their photo and we don't have the option to upload it. Did you get an email asking you to upload your photo?

This is my understanding as well. I landed in May and had an email to post/mail photographs, still waiting for any update since mailing the photographs in October

Check the address on your COPR and make sure it's the same as where you live now. Our child had our address from 3 years ago listed, and they mailed it to that address despite the fact that we told them in our application that it had changed.

CoPR with Calgary office on Sep 29
First GU on Nov 25
Application finished and PR card send on Nov 26 ... still not received though they say “up to 6 weeks”

So 11 days later, still no sign of my PR card. It’s just one crazy wait after another ... gets increasingly tiresome and I need my card asap to travel. Admittedly may only be 7 working days and coming by regular mail from Nova Scotia to Alberta.

Anyone waited ages for their card to arrive in the mail too?

At what point do we also have to start considering the “oops turns out the printer was broken so we’ve got to re-issue your card” scenario that I’ve seen crop up on the forum?

Oh gosh, the never ending waiting game! It’s been less than 2 weeks for mine but would still have expected it to arrive, even with covid. Expect your address is still correct, as is mine. I saw a few people post that they had delays and it turned out the card hadn’t printed properly, so ended up being re-sent. Presumably all we can do in practice is wait out the 6 weeks then, when it turns out they’ve dropped the ball, reach out again to say “please re-print”. Anyone got other ideas?

I emailed ircc to confirm if they have recieved my documents for PR card. The response is very generic but they wrote "Unfortunately we are unable to confirm the receipt of your documents".
They didn't check for my documents or they haven't recieved it yet. Canada post delivered it on 1st december
