For families who applied for minors as well, do kids under 18 get aor too? When we got my wife and daughter’s pr card we only got my wife’s aor in the mail
Yes, everyone will get separate AOR as each AOR will have the unique UCI number and file number It will be sent to the respective email IDs provided for each of the applicants

Because they want to make our lives miserable. Online applications could solve a lot of problems, like uploading missing or incomplete documents. After 3 months they opened the file, and requested that you need to resubmit it, which I assume will take another 3 months to be opened again. Unacceptable. Are you eligible for urgent processing for your travel? This would be the only way to avoid another 3 months delay.
That’s super frustrating ! I had the same problem in 2019 when they sent my application back after 3 months and then that took another 3 months to open it again.

I think there is one more intermediate status before that which will say “ Completed and Card has been mailed “
This is what my status says:


Permanent Resident Card
  1. We received your application for a permanent resident card on April 1, 2021.
  2. We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of your application(s) on July 13, 2021.
  3. We started processing your application on July 13, 2021.
  4. Your Permanent Resident card was sent by mail on August 2, 2021.

Was it one application or multiple in a package? Also did you check your mail? Somebody’s application was returned the other day with almost the same timeline
Hi, any update for today. Sorry to bother you...my app received by tracking April 9. Just lost my patience.

Ok...I will keep you updated if any.
I think both of you will hear something soon. It seems like those that are received between Apr 3 to Apr 9 are now receiving AORs. And as always, today's Tuesday so we'll see an update on IRCC's website for the new processing time as well.

Hi all,

I received my PR approval on March 26, 2021.
Received my CoPR in e-mail on April 1, 2021.
Sent the photograph and CoPR on the same day for new PR card.
It has been more than 120 days but there is no update on PR card.
Tried calling them but call is not going through.
Also filled the webform. At first they replied that they have received the documents and it is still under process but this was a while ago.
I have filled the webform again.
Please advise me.

Thanks.

If they have received everything there's just no other viable options at this time, welcome to the IRCC world of things unfortunately..

I wonder if that was generic reply or they actually verified. Application Status tool is also not working. I have linked it to my account though but there is no AOR yet.

This was their reply:

This is generic but they verified your info then gave you this generic response. Be patient, it will come to you eventually :)
