10 days no PR Card.... Canada Post, you could do better!

hey did you get your COPR? when did they send the PR card? ... can you give me a timeline from COPR to PR card mailing?
Thank you!

 

[Turbo43]

not me

Anyone who got in touch with an agent after the updates? The lines seem super busy these days, impossible to connect even after multiple tries

I’m just wondering if our files are finalized now and we’re just waiting for the portal email..

I was able to connect to an agent after the medical update. The status is same for my file, BG check isn't started yet, everything else is passed.

Thanks for the info, I think the waiting would continue for another month or 2

No dice, no cards till now... They will come when they want.

I think it depends on Visa Officer. They can prioritize the case. Actually I wrote to Visa Officer requesting him to approve and expedite my PR Card application. The following day I received a response from the officer that it is approved and send to printing and it will be delivered soon.

According to portal it has been printed and mailed on 3rd of March.

Do you think it is also possible to ask them to expedite the CEC application because of special circumstances? My partner is interviewing for a job at a government agency which requires PR to get a permanent position.


Did anyone have success with something like this before?

Hi Team, Just wondering how long it takes for final decision once everything is passed. My work permit is expiring in may 28 and not sure whether I should apply for bowp.

My suggestion is to apply bridge visa...We'd just never known when they will approve our PR application, three years, two years, a year, a month, a week, a day......Painful but if you're always holding valid work permit, at least you could make some money while waiting...plus, now, it takes more than 4 months standard to get bridge visa...

2000 people processed in the first 2 weeks of March, CEC backlog now at around 10k
