PR card applications are separate for each member and processed separately.
Any idea how long it takes to process for secondary applicants? I received my card 10 days ago but still waiting for my husband's card. Called IRCC but they do not have any update on the application, so do not know what's happening.

There is no fix ed timeline, also primary and secondary applicant applications are not related. You can keep checking with IRCC on update. If you havent done till now, you can also link pr card application to your gckey account - https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/account/link-paper-online.html

They rejected my photo again:)
ecopr+GU1 21 Dec (Niagara Fall)
1st reject 26 Mar
2nd reject 2 May
Last see how long do I get the card.

BTW tried some method, concluded with my experience.

1. Webform useless. Everytime replyed same things “an agent took the appropriate actions to follow up on your request” but nothing changed

2. Hotline useless. The first few time will tell you will send a notes to responsible office. After that will tell you the card still in process, and nothing can do.

3. MP useless. I found MP on FEB, everytime they only tell me the process of the card which a little bit detail than hotline. They also told the card have production issues, after the issues IRCC need to wait 6weeks to reissue the card again. That is my second time to have the issues, so I need to wait 6weeks again since 30Apr.

4. Email to eCoPR issuing office maybe useful. I sent the email in Feb but no response. I sent it again on 29Apr, and I got response by an agent said that my card production in Sydney NS on 1May. I got photo rejection on 2May, the agent also sent a email told me this happened. And said if I get a differently for upload the photo in PR Portal, I can email the photo to them. They also told me to notify the office after I have taken this action.

Those 4 methods you can try. I hope they can help everyone.

Try to contact the IRCC Etobicoke office which sent you eCOPR confirmation. I replied to the same email on April 7th, that had subject line as "Congratulations! You are now a permanent resident (PR) of Canada!" and mentioned that I need to travel in May to my home country. Then after three weeks, I received a reply from IRCC Etobicoke office that my card has been sent to the production team and then within five days, I had my card in hand.
