My family has the same problem with PR card.
My mother arrived on Aug 15, 2021. She was asked by the immigration officer at the airport to update hew address the next day. Which she did. However, when she logs in to the same form she sees old address there (address outside of Canada). She used 'address notification' form originally. But now we have tried the 'change address' form, submitting web form, calling (after automated message it hangs up).
Phone: 1-888-242-2100​

It has been more than 7 weeks. All other people we know go their PR after one month. I do not know what we are doing wrong. We followed all instructions... (sigh)

Next things to try is sending fax, and submitting Solemn Declaration.
Fax (from the form the immigration officer provided at the airport): 1-902-564-7317​
If the above two options don't work then I guess we will have to get support from ministry as someone else did (post here https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/initial-pr-card-not-received-8-months.707151/post-9020237)
I wish there was a physical office we could go to to clarify things. Online/phone options are not supported well.

If someone knows how to update address or what office to contact other than the options we tried already please let me know.

Has any of you been able to find out if your PR card was actually issued? We got the PR on April and still nothing. We changed address so we are worried that it got sent to the old one, so we wanted to see which address is in the system and went to the link Address notification form: https://services3.cic.gc.ca/ecas/introduction.do?app=coanotify , but since the application was approved so long ago, this link doesn't find the application anymore!

We tried the phone number early morning and several times but they just hung up on us.

Does anybody have any idea of how we can get some info?
