Hello Zardoz

I went to CIC website and logged in as principal applicant but could not track PR card (New). I am trying to find at what stage PR card is like "In Processing", "dispatced" etc. Can you suggest if I am missing something here expecting too much? I went to this link:

services3.cic.gc.ca/ecas/authenticate.do

Thanks
Harish Kumar
It seems to work for some people but not others. There's probably nothing that you can do.

Thanks Zardoz. Did you apply FSW category? Just seeing if that is making any difference.

Regards
Harish Kumar

Did your guys' photos have the new requirements? Apparently they changed them. I landed yesterday and the picture on my COPR still has the old specs. The officials never said anything though. Now I'm scared that it will be returned. :'(

Highly likely. The rejection rate in that case seems to be near 100%, and it will add a delay if it's rejected.

It's not the end of the world, however, as the card is not technically required. If you have to travel, you can get a PR travel document.
