This is what I would do if I was in that position. Others can comment if I am wrong or if additional options are there.
There is an option to request for status from IRCC. You can try this. I don’t know how much time is taken for you to get it.Secondly calll the call centre of IRCC and ask their opinion. Thirdly iwrite a letter with copy of the College letter to IRCC, PRCards Sydney.
Verification of status (VOS) or request to amend
This includes:

• confirmation of permanent residence
• replacement of visitor record
• amendment of visitor record
• study permit
• work permit

You can try, no harm. I don’t know if they will do it on urgent basis. Meanwhile send a letter ASAP to IRCC-PR Cards , Sydney to urgently process your PR card application. Also in the urgent processing option of PR card submit a request there too.

Do u think sending letter , webform and vos can cause any confusion to IRCC?

Processing for verification of status (VOS) is 6 months.

I applied for a Verification of Status Document over the summer. I mailed my application on July 2. I got my VOS by e-mail on July 21. I sent it by regular post from abroad, so it would have taken at least 5-7 days for IRCC to physically get my application.

This may have been something one off, I don't know, but thought I would share this.

Note:

Give your passport number as the number in the passport you used to land. This makes processing quicker.


Hope this helps.

I am a Permanent Resident and I applied to replace my Confirmation of PR document.

I did not write urgent, even if I did they don't process it as urgent unless there is a special need. (I believe only pension issues qualify as a special need.)

Aside from all the information my original CoPR document mentioned, it has information on current status (PR) as well as "Lost/Relinquished PR on:" (NA)

The is also a little header on top that the current status field is accurate as of the date on which the document is issued and that changes after that date are not reflected.

does it show that ur residence status is valid and dated in the same day u applied for vos ? thank you

It shows that you residence status is valid as of the date they issue the document. The date on the document is the date you get it in your email.

Ex:

You apply on Nov 15 2017. They send you an email with the document on Dec 15 2017. The document will be dated Dec 15 2017 and there will be an explanation from CIC explaining that the VOS is an official document issued by them and that as of Dec 15 2017 you are a PR. (The date on the document would be Dec 15, not Nov 15, in the scenario because they issue the document only on Dec 15 2017.)

so do u think i can use it as an official document to show that i maintain the permanent residency status without a vaild permanent residency card?
