There isn't anything specific for September, but they have a general 2021 forum here: https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/pr-card-new-renewal-processing-timeline-2021.724984/ You probably won't hear anything for 4-5 months anyway.

It doesn't necessarily take a month to get the certificate and passport. During the credentials check at the Oath ceremony you will be asked if you have to travel within the next three weeks. I told them I had to and they rushed my certificate. I received it two days later and applied for my...

I applied in early April for my PR card renewal because the citizenship process was taking so long. My citizenship was completed on August 24th and they mailed out my PR Card on the 25th. My PR card arrived yesterday while I was at the Passport Office applying for my passport. It's like the old...

Mine was from Niagara Falls as well, but the Judge was in Halifax.

The actual ceremony isn't long at all. There is a lot of time taken up by checking credentials etc. The whole process took about two hours.

yes, you can. Citizenship will take over a year, PR renewal is taking about 5-6 months.

People that are waiting on a new PR card don't have any more of an urgency to travel than those renewing. That is why it doesn't make any sense.

How is it possible that a renewal of a PR Card is now at 112 days and a new application is at 44 days? Surely a renewal should take less time as most of the person's information is already in the system. I applied at the beginning of April when the processing time was 62 days, I still haven't...

I received my oath ceremony email on Friday, August 6th.

I don't think that they will want to run away from Canada that quickly. They are coming to Canada because they helped the Canadian Military during their time over there. Now that all Western forces have been pulled out of Afghanistan these helpers will be killed for helping our troops. How many...

Thank you! Will do.

Not urgent processing, but didn't have to do the Language or Citizen exam because I'm over 55.
