NOC Code......
2171A
**Applicant from Vancouver, BC here**


AOR - June 20, 2020
COPR - April 6, 2021 [9 months later]!
Photos received by Etobicoke [according to Canada Post] - April 20, 2021
It is June 9 today, and there are no updates!!!

I have been stuck in Canada for 2+ years [since Sept 2019] due to expired TRV, couldn't apply to Bridging WP since I got the invitation for EE after the expiration of my work permit.

IRCC has driven me crazy this past year, with their covid delays and long processing. I lost 2 family members due to covid, and I couldn't go back to be with family. I want to go see my family ASAP I desperately need it.

The processing for Etobicoke according to this thread is 5 months for PR CARD . This has really been affecting me psychologically. I'm depressed big time. Is there any way I can make it quicker? What if I mail a new set of photos to the local office here in Vancouver with an explanation letter, would that work? My friends here have been getting their cards in 3 weeks' time. How is this fair? Also, why was my file assigned to Etobicoke if I live in Vancouver, BC????

HEEEEELPPPP PLEASEEEE! ANYTHING IS APPRECIATED.

THANKSSSS
Usually it takes 4.5 months to process. You should receive card by Sep first week. Currently they are processing Jan last week COPR date

When you got your 1st GU
I didn't see any GU.
Maybe I missed it.
I sign in every day since last week but my application shows it as Submitted.
and today when I sign-in, it shows that there is a update and it got approved and they mailed it today.
Sorry couldn't help.

May 31 - Called IRCC, was advised that they can't see any updates on my application.
May 31 - Sent an email to Etobicoke IRCC office directly (no response to date)
June 1 - first GU
June 3 - received a response from IRCC Web Form advising that my photo was approved on June 1 and sent to Nova Scotia
June 3 - second GU
June 5 - received an email that my PR card application was updated. Status changed from "submitted" to "approved". Was provided with some card details (number, expiry date)
June 9 - received the PR card!

Thanks everyone for your help and I hope you get your PR cards very soon!
HI, congrats!

Where do you live? Did it take 4 days only to get the PR card after receiving the update of the application ?
