Just as a note, you will need to ask someone to re-seal the CIC Letter/ mail so its concealed. We were waiting for our new PR card in the mail but then we moved to the US, so we had our home mail forwarded to the US, waited for months and the website wouldn't confirm the status of our card. We used the Web-Forum on CIC website, and after 3 attempts, they told us...our PR card was approved and waiting at the post office, no mail from CIC/Immigration docs are allowed to be mailed outside of Canada.
