Hey, I am waiting for the PR card as well, when did you receive your copr and submitted the photo to portal?
I have received the first GU in my profile (PR card application)

I don't think that you should upload scanned copy of the photo. Please ask the photo studio to give a digital copy in PR card format.
Here are the specifications :
The same requirement applies for the following: digital passport photo, digital permanent residence card photo, digital express entry photo.
- The frame size must be at least 1200 x 1600 pixels.
- The size of the head, from chin to crown, must be between 709 to 823 pixels.
- The file may be submitted in JPEG format.
- The image must be in color(24 bits per pixel) in RGB color space.
- The photos must be taken in person by a commercial
photographer. - Photos must be taken within the last six (6) months.
- The photos must be originals and not taken from an existing
photo. - The photos must show a full front view of the face and top of the shoulders squared to the camera (the image of the face and shoulders must be centered in the photo). The head must not be tilted to the side.

Hi All,
My PR application was approved in April and I mailed the photos on the 1st of May. I am still unable to link my PR card application to my account.
However, today I received a GU on the PR application profile which was already in the Approved state?
Did anyone experience this? What this could mean?
I think in profile, the last time I checked the below update was about my background check. I see about medical today.
Latest update:
Review of medical results - November 2, 2020:You passed the medical exam.

This is normal to get another GU after approval. nothing to worry.
Moreover, I observed that there is a technical glitch in the "Latest update section" of the portal. In my online account, it keeps changing, sometime it shows, background check update and other times it shows Medical results date.
Hlo guys . Like i don’t have family name . But in the given name in the portal is blank and the put my given name example Harpreet Singh is in family name . What to do know any suggestions please @legalfalcon
Yes That's weird because as you said usually second update says approved and card mailed but mine was GU so I started thinking that the first GU I got might be a glitch in the system. I think I will see approval update next week I will post as soon as I receive another update.
