There's people 4-5 weeks ahead of you that are still waiting. This is my timeline (not too far off yours- I'll update on here if there are any changes.) We received your application for a permanent resident card on December 6, 2021. We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of your...

Mine is in the same stage. From what I can tell (reading other peoples' updates), you will receive a message saying your card is being sent. Not sure if there are updates between this point and hearing it's been mailed.

Renewal.

Update: We received your application for a permanent resident card on Dec 6, 2021. We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of your application(s) on Feb 2, 2022. We started processing your application on Feb 2, 2022. Decision Made Feb 3, 2022. Received to Decision Made - 59 days...

Received an email on Feb 2nd 2022, saying they received my application on December 6th, 2021. Based on current processing times, when could I expect to have a decision? Seems to be moving quicker than the estimated 120 days.

It's almost like you're talking about me! 30 mins to the border, SO many day trips to Ship Happens in Sumas. Just starting the process now. I presume it has to be 100% accurate too. Is there a way to request the info from CBSA? Surely they know!

Landed January 21st - PR Card arrived today (March 3) Exactly 6 weeks. Was told 4-6 weeks by CBSA at the land border.

I know users don't typically track PR card arrival timelines, but just in case anyone is wondering how long it's actually taking - I was told by CBSA when I landed between 4-6 weeks, the CIC website said processing time was 52 days, (currently says 44). Mine arrived today, exactly 6 weeks from...

Not sure about the above. But I freelanced for 2 years on my IEC visa. Didn't have an accountant do anything. I just registered for GST, got my business number, and invoiced my clients each month - both Canadian and UK clients. UK clients I don't charge GST as they are exempt. It's much...

Your passport will have been stamped, but no COPR just gets signed.

Hi all, Received my COPR a couple of weeks back. When landing I asked the officer if I were to fly out of Canada to the US for a 2 week vacation before they send my PR card out, what do I need to do. (Expecting him to say apply for a PRTD once in the US) he said I can use my COPR until my PR...

When I applied online I was told by a very kind CBSA officer to apply 3 days before your current status expires. Buys you more time. Processing time when I did mine was 3.5 months. This basically meant I got my IEC visa before they even made a decision on my visitor status. Maybe don't leave...

Congrats!! Hopefully your COPR turns up quickly.

Yes Gary - got it on Wednesday! I've not had chance to get to the border yet, but hoping I can go after work this next week.

Thanks PaulaG. Congrats to you too.

Update to spreadsheet please: COPR arrived Tuesday 10th January. Heading to the border sometime in the next few days to land. Cheers!

Thanks for this! Super helpful. I didn't get any passport photos back. Maybe you sent too many when you submitted? There's one attached to my COPR. I'm not bringing anything in with me so will just turn up with my COPR and passport.

Congrats!!! Seems our COPRs were stuck in the Christmas backlog. No messinf around to get landed either. I was tempted to drive down but couldn't be bothered with rush hour traffic. Going to go Friday I think. How was flagpoling? Any issues? Which crossing?

COPR also arrived today. Issue date is Dec 16 posted on the 19th. Didn't have to sign for it either. Landing on Friday! Big thanks to everyone on this forum. Invaluable help. Keep it up!

Thanks Hurlabrick - good to know. Hopefully it won't get to that stage and it turns up soon.
