I have been following this post for a while now, thanks for all your very informative replies. and today I have received email saying my renew card has been issued, so I would like to share my timeframe with you guys :)

PR card renewal application was received by CIC on APRIL 13, 2015
CIC began processing the application on JUNE 19, 2015
Received email from CIC on JUNE 19, 2015 requesting color copies of passport.
Received email from CIC on OCT 18, 2016 inform that renew card has been issued.

One year and half....I don't know if this is their current process time frame, what I did is to send them request on weekly bases asking for update, and I did send an ATIP request last week (I don't know if that helps with processing time or not?).

Nevertheless, keep trying everyone... ;)
Just to renew PR they took so long? Did u travel alot in 5 yrs?

Ya....renewing now days seems takes longer than getting a new one, it's pretty ridicules...and I didn't travel a lot at all, two or maybe three times within five years, and only just crossing to US. I really don't think it's anything to do with our personal applications, it's just IRCC short handed unfortunately. :(

Dear all
I hope this will bring peace and hope to the remaining waiting

Received my pr card today in mail
Also today only my status showed complete
Last week on Wednesday October 19th I called CIC and the lady officer said the mailed it out .

My timeline

*We received your application for a permanent resident card on May 7, 2015.
*We started processing your application on September 8, 2015.
*We sent you a letter on September 8, 2015. Please consider delays in mail delivery before contacting us.
*Your request for a permanent resident card was approved on October 17, 2016. Your Permanent resident card will be mailed to you or if quality assurance is required, made available for you to pick up at a CIC office.
*Your Permanent Resident card was sent by mail on October 19, 2016.

If it helps ... My old card expired on October 15 th 2015 ... Mb they just keep you one year after your card expires !!!! Who knows ?!
I maybe the first may applicant to receive the card

Good luck to everyone ... My deepest heart wishes to you all to receive your cards too !

P.s I made no requests or inquires to CIC .. Just maybe 4 calls .. 2 of which to change my address

Hello Members
I became Permanent residence of Canada day I arrived i.e. 13th July 2016.
I will be staying in Canada until December 19th 2016 says about 159 day’s from 13th July 2016 and will return to DUBAI for next 1.5 years 15 months from December 19th 2016 onwards.
My question is as to keep my PR status valid I must stay in Canada for minimum of 2 years out of 5 years. So if I come back in 2018 July will I be able to renew my PR card without any problem or I may be short of 730 days.
My PR card is valid until 2021 August
I understand, if I arrive in 2018 July and then stay back until 2021 I am good to go, please advice
July 13th 2016 –to- 19th December 2016 = days physically present is 159
Now from 2018 July to 2021 August = it will be more than 730 days as per calculator it is 2018=171 days, 2019= 365, 2020=366 & 2021=232 so in total will be 1134 counting from 2018 year and I believe my current stay i.e. from July 13th2016 –to- 19th December 2016 with 159 days will also be counted.
Number of days physically present per calendar year towards my PR renewal will be 1294 days. Please correct me please

2016 160
2017 0
2018 171
2019 365
2020 366
2021 232

My number is 001-9029409260 if there is any whatsapp group for this please add me

By the way, did you send them emails or call them that could have sped things up?

Congratulations decent guy as a matter of interest What is the issue and export dates on your new pr card. Because as they took so long to issue the cards do they backdate from when you sent the application in or do they start it from the day they issue it.

Hi Tony,
I had been to Mp's office twice in the last 2 months and I asked them to send a written letter and I got a vague standard reply that they have received the application on May 2015 and it is under process,which was of no use.Other than that, I did not do any other follow up.

Thanks Ivylane, the issue date on the PR card is October, 2016 and valid until 2021, which is good.
