New PR card processing time

[Nick~Nick]

Guys,
I am looking to apply for renewal of PR card for my wife and I just learn that IRCC have new online portal to renew PR card. But also learn from somewhere that online process is taking more time then paper application ? Is that true ? if so, anyone here knows how much time online application is taking vs paper application ?

okay, most likely the issue is with place of birth, try entering as
1. As per passport - CITY,(SPACE)STATE . This is if you hold Indian passport
2. If pt1 doesnt work, as per GCMS notes. If you have had ordered GCMS notes, look into it as to how the place of birth appears
3. if pt1 and pt2 dont work, As per CoPR

thanks! it really helped I finally linked mine as well. A quick question though, do you know why my wife is unable to link hers? is hers also under mine? I was the principle applicant. thanks

No, pr card application is separate for each applicant (not related to who is primary or dependent). You may possibly are entering information which doesn't match with what IRCC has. here is what you can do -

Call IRCC at 1 (888) 242-2100 . When you call IRCC, It will ask you for the UCI , press 2 i.e. no UCI available and then as soon as the message for AF and UK refugees start playing press 3 3 0 in quick succession you will be able to reach them. The real deal is - don't wait to hear out the refugee messages .Once you get hold of an agent, ask for your PR card application number ( it starts with letter "R"). You can go then link your card application using application number option.

Hi
We landed on May 16th. My wife got hers a week ago and my photo was refused, so I sent again and they told me to wait another 3 weeks…

Have you linked your PR card application to GCKey - https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/account/link-paper-online.html

What does the status say ? Also, did you receive a photo resubmission request which you might have missed ?

Ay that time I had not linked it to my account so I received an email on June 16th for the photo resubmission. I called last week and they told me to wait 3 weeks…
Currently the status say that they are processing…

Have you linked it now ? Also, since you already have contacted IRCC, not sure why are you panicking . You should expect a delay since you received photo resubmission request. Probably your application is now put back in queue.

Hi I had exactly the same problem, try to take a picture of your confirmation of permanent residence, then copy the place of birth with iphone from the picture and paste it! It was the only way I found!
Good luck

Thanks for your response, unfortunately on my eCoPR city/town of birth is empty, only mentions the country.

Hi All,

I submitted my PR Card renewal online application on 15th July but I haven't received any Acknoledge email that they received my application. Is that normal and what are the timelines now for PR card renewal

Thanks for your response, unfortunately on my eCoPR city/town of birth is empty, only mentions the country.

I had similar problems - and I realized that the CITY,<ONE SPACE>STATE - SOLVED THE PROBLEM. E-COPR doc contains this format and NOT passport.
