I received CoPR in January and sent my PR card photos shortly thereafter. If this is my first PR card, do I still receive AOR?
 
This is odd. My ecas still shows Decision made (AOR Jan 7th) but if I log into my CIC account, it shows Decision Made - approved. Card has been mailed on March 2nd which is today.

I felt it was odd because I have never seen anyone mention the word "approved" and they only mentioned Decision made. Also, no update on ecas but approved message in CIC.

Hope this helps anyone who is not checking CIC account.

@lxx260905 was it new card (first time) of renewal. And what is your location. Thanks
 
Hello All,
How are you able to view recent status online? I can only see information from my initial PR application.
Is it possible to send additional documents to IRCC? I had a PR renewal application was returned today because I did not write the applicant's name on the back of the photo. I suspect the other applications might have the same issue and want to proactively send updated photos.

The applications were sent one month apart. Any one done this before or should I wait for a response from Sydney.
 
Any first time PR Cards? I've been waiting 9 months! They just said that there are delays. It's just too much! I'm in BC
 
We had 4 cards mailed out on Jan 27th (status update is 27th for all of them). Three were received today. Should I be concerned on the fourth one being lost or hopefully I should be getting it this week? Just concerned that all four were mailed on same date but why only 3 received today.

Curios if anyone ran into similar timing issues with mailing for cards.

were you able to get your fourth card? i am in BC havent recieved card its been mailed feb 23
 
is anyone else having issues receiving the actual PR card?

My sons application for renewal was complete by Jan 20th and the card was mailed, but up to now we didn't receive anything. We're in BC, but this seems like a real long time.
In the mean time I submitted a webform to inquire if they have any more info or if the card was returned for some reason.
In the mean time his ecas has been removed, probably since it was complete for about 1 month. Luckily I had some screenshots from ecas to attach to the webform
Did you recieve card?

Hi all, hope someone can help.

I received PR renewal application back as incomplete for below 2 reasons. It's not clear what is the actual issue but was wondering if anyone experienced this and how you corrected it.

1. Your photos are missing, do not meet the specifications or the duplicate photo was not included. Your photos were received damaged. Please refer to the attached photo specification sheet or consult "Appendix B" or your guide for instructions.
(side note - the case worker taped my photos to the photo specification page and highlighted "taken with uniform lighting and not show shadows, glare or flash reflections". This is odd since everything looks ok on the photo including size). Does anyone have a place where they took their photo and was accepted by case worker (I'm in Etobicoke, so Missi and North Toronto works for me).

2. Applications dated more than 90 days before being received by IRCC will require that you update your absences, re-sign and re-date the application, otherwise the application will be returned as incomplete.
(side note - this one totally stumped me. My photograph was dated 12.28.20 (MM.DD.YY), application 01.01.21, application received 01.06.21).

FYI my time line if it helps others:
1. Application sent - 01.03.21
2. Application received - 01.06.21
3. Application noted incomplete ((letter I received was dated) - 02.19.21
4. Application received by - 03.04.21
