Hi,
Here are my application details:

Type: Online PR Card Renewal with Legal Name Change
Date Submitted: Nov-8, 2024
-> PR portal shows it in Submitted status with the View button disabled.


Unable to find the application using the CAS tool.

I was able to link the application using the IRCC Secure Account and Canadian Interac Signin Partner.

The application status is: "We are processing your application. We will send you a message when there is an update or if we need more information from you."
Details about your application status
When we get your application, there are a series of steps it may go through before we make a decision. Use the following table to find out the current status of each application step.
Review of eligibility
  • We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements.
Review of medical results
  • You do not need a medical exam. We will send you a message if this changes.
Review of additional documents
  • We do not need additional documents.
Interview
  • You do not need an interview. We will send you a message if this changes.
Biometrics
  • We do not need your fingerprints. We will send you a message if this changes.
Background check

Final decision
  • Your application is in progress. We will send you a message once the final decision has been made.
On Dec-31, 2024 the PR card renewal processing time changed to 31 days. Using that number, my application should have been approved.

Should I contact IRCC or wait a few more days since a name change is involved?

Thank you!
Did you get any recent update?

no news is good news.
My husband submitted his application in Nov, 2024 and received the new card on Jan, 2025. No email feedback, no telephone, the mail came in surprise.
So good luck.
Congratulations! So, it’s taking almost two months for the renewal application.

Hello all!
I have a question regarding my wife's PR renewal and Proof of address. Might seem a little weird or a non-issue but please bear with me:

To provide some context - her PR expired in June 2024, left Canada, applied for PRTD and returned with that. Now, she wants to apply for a PR renewal.
Right now, the utility bills have both our names so Proof of address is not an issue. However, we are renewing our mortgage and this time, I will be the sole applicant. Her confusion is:
1. Will her name show up in future utility bills because the name on the mortgage is changing? If her PR renewal application is processed later and the officer wants to verify the address, how will they see that she is in fact at this address if the future utility bills don't show her name?
2. Is this something we can request Elexicon Energy (Ontario) to add to the name on the bill?
3. What other Address Proof can we provide (we only have a temp photo id provided online. Card is yet to come in mail)

Thanks!
what about the bank statement. As I know, bank statement shows the adress, and it is kind of certain adress proof. what confused me is IRCC does not require adress proof.
