I sent my application on 4th January by mail and I still cannot link it to my account. I tried multiple times and it says "Based on the information you entered, we found no applications. " I am not sure if I should wait or re-send it by courier? I sent it by Canada Post with require signature option. If anyone can guide, it would be great! Thank you.

Are you putting your date of becoming PR correctly? Ideally it is the date that you see under "Document Status" row on the profile and not the one inside Information Letter which you have received.
The PR Card application is submitted by IRCC on your behalf. Once you are able to link, you will see date submitted as your date of becoming a PR.
Yes, I checked for an alternative date. I only see one date on the profile and on the letter. Also tried multiple times with state and without state in my birth place. Maybe will try calling them to see. I am not very worried at this point? I don't know if it will be an issue if I don't get a pr card soon.

Few tips, try using UCI and for place of birth type exactly how it appears in COPR Document (lower case or upper case). It worked for me

I tried with UCI. For place of birth it says "Country of Birth: India" and not my town. Maybe that's why as I have been typing my town's name all this while. I'll try India next time. I already tried 5 times last night so will have to wait.

Thats abit annoying, it took me 3 days to link it.
But i believe thats pretty much admin work, the application is in queue in the background.

Even I got my copr and request to send two photos to Vancouver office. I just want to know if this is the last and final step. As I heard our copr should be signed . So I’m confused

Read document carefully. You do not need to sign on it.
Just print it and send it to the given address along with 2 photos.

Called cic, they are not able to see my photos in system yet, and as per them it is my first PR card, i won’t be able to sync it, just wondering if any one else in same boat.

No you should be able to view your application and it takes while and some combinations before you can attach your application for PR Card

thanks, IRCC processing time for PR cards was 125 days and now it’s below 100 days within couple of weeks. So for sure they are picking pace now
