Hi Zeekie did your brother receive card in mail already? Just want to understand how many days it takes to get from mail out to in mail box
I'm quite sure it depends on where you live, but i'm expecting it to take about 7-10 days so sometime next week hopefully. I'm in the GTA.
 
Good day all . After all that waiting since March finally got surprised by this letter today .So this it might help out people that they have an expired passport to go ahead and renew your passport as primary ID .
Before you apply for anything .this is the letter I got :
your application for PR card is not complete and there for is being returned to you for the following reason :
✅your primary ID document is missing or unacceptable or expired please note that PR card is not acceptable as a primary ID.
✅application dated more than 90 days before being received by IRCC
Require that you update absence Re-sign Re-date
Well guys when I sent my application everything was updated in time and now after been pushed from March -sept they took advantage on everything which is not my fault . they telling us that during the pandemic everything should be ok
Very sorry to hear and did u get any AOR after submission of your application. Try to talk to attorney or lawer and there will be a path forward

Hi All,
I received the same letter above today and i am sending them the renewed passport copy,
However i have below questions please help me understand:

- After sending the passport copy, Would i wait another 5 months now to hear back from them? or my application would be treated differently ?
- For the 2nd point to update absence and re-sign re-date the application..
Shall i fill a new application from scratch? or update the old one which they sent to me along with the letter above ?

Please advise thank you!

Since it is returned for a valid reason, it will be considered as new application and will be treated as regular application (observed from other posts in this forum.)

And also they resumed the operations a bit fast and because of back to school, I believe it will come down to 1 or 2 months from 5 months very soon.

all the best!

Wondering if someone can guide me with one issue i am facing while linking my wife application in MYCIC account.

In her COPR, City of Birth was left blank. So, now when i try to link application, city of birth is a required item which i don't know what to enter, tried different combinations, bit nothing is working.

Any suggestion from any one will be appreciated

I wonder, how do they know without opening the package? My understanding is that they just arrange the packages by the date they arrived and assign them to agents. So until the agents open the file there is no way to know about the application details.

I have a feeling they might be working on July applications already. I could be wrong though. :)
 
@bluecanuck located in the GTA.
@canvisa13 My feeling is that the CPC-Sydney has been working quite hard to get back on track. I know July applicants with missing documents or "photo-violations" have been getting their dossiers returned. The CPC staff probably have opened and checked for completion of documents into the July cohorts; while the "incomplete" dossiers are returned immediately, the scanning of completed applications understandably take longer, and hence the delay in issuing of AORs.

Makes sense. Thanks @bjsdefz
