Maybe you entered the wrong UCI, it's the number in the body of your AOR, right after the "Government of Canada" Banner. If you entered that one, maybe try the application in the title of the email starting with Rxxxxxxxx - and select application number in eCAS. And if still nothing pops up, try GCKey to see if you can link your application.

If you got the acknowledgement of reception, you should be able to track your application.
Please check whether you confused the UCI and Application numbers?
Good luck.

I checked many times, and used both UCI and application numbers on separate browsers, still same thing. Looks like I'll have to wait and see if it changes next week.

Update on my family member's status, finally showed up on eCAS this morning
Application Sent: June 25, 2021
Application Received: June 29, 2021
AOR: Oct 21, 2021
In Process + Decision Made: Oct 22, 2021

My application also has very similar eCAS timeline as yours.
Application received: July 5, 2021
AOR: Oct 21, 2021
In Process + Decision Made: Oct 22, 2021

I don't know what this means. Why did it change to Decision Made so very quickly?

Yet, on the MyCIC page (not eCAS) where I linked this PR card application, the status is saying that they are still reviewing my eligibility for the card.

I believe they change the status frm in progress to decision made for mostly applications.. But all applications are in process..

If your application is DM right after AOR, 99.9% chance it means yours is approved and now sent for printing. Normally 80% of the applicants should have this process happening like this. It just means yours was a straightforward application and the agent has no doubt about your RO.

I've seen some people's applications are like this. Can't check the application status from anywhere and after a couple weeks the PR card is just quietly sitting in the mailbox. Don't worry! I hope this will be the case for you too!

My renewal application was delivered to IRCC June 24th, got AOR October 9th, still can't see it on ECAS.

I started doubting I am entering something wrong, as I see some people from June and July submissions here posting updates that their applications are now visible on ECAS.

Does everyone use UCI as the Identification? I just copy and paste the number from the AOR email, no hyphens.
I am in the same boat :/ my application was delivered there June 17th. I got my AOR October 6th. Still nothing on the Client Application Status. I tried all the combinations possible between UCI/ Case number/ PR card number/ Receipt number, still nothing....

A friend of mine renewed hers earlier this year, she never got an AOR and her application never showed up on Client Application Status, but a few weeks after the processing time, she received her PR card by mail.

Update

Received my PR card today.

Applied on June 20 but didn't get AOR till Sept 30. Then applied for urgent processing on Oct 01, received AOR on Oct 06.

Decision made on Oct 08, card sent on Oct 15.

Thanks
How did you apply for urgent processing ? What’s the criteria ?

I did attach my travel itinerary in the request. I added the ticket from Etihad Airways. I added family reunification as my request.

Submit the form. It has crossed 177 days so you are right to send it over. Better than sitting around waiting and doing nothing.
How did you do that ? Can you please share the link ? My travel date is approaching soon and need to apply for urgent processing ?

IRCC received my renewal application on August 16th and I have planned for my 1 week honeymoon on Jan 15th.

I haven't received the AOR yet and I was wondering if it's very likely I will not get my card before Jan 15th.
Not one bit. I applied on June 5th, still NO AOR
