Got an update on GCKey today: PR Card was approved and mailed.
No update on Permanent Residence Portal tho: case status is under review: mailing address is approved, but the photo is still under review.
On the GCKey they say that the PR card might take up to 6 weeks to arrive: Is that often the case? The processing office is in Etobicoke and I am in Toronto. Kind of a long time for mailing.

Hi guys,

just had a question, how long does it take to get your PR card photo accepted by IRCC once you get your ecopr? Currently, it shows in review. And timeline to get your card mailed by ircc?

Thanks,

Mine was in review even after I got my card in the mail, so I dont think they update it in a timely manner. Timeline varies (as always), it took mine close to 38 days to get an update. I suggest linking the pr card application to your gckey to learn when it was mailed out to you. @jvcaunin hopefully answers your question as well? The GU might be only for linking the application as far as I can recall.

How do we link PR Card Application?

-- Found it but it says cannot find application. How do we fill up the City/Town of Birth?

"Number of Failed Registration Attempts Exceeded
For security purposes, you can only try to link an application to your account a maximum of 5 times in 24 hours.

To help link this application to this account, make sure the information appears exactly as it was entered on the application form. If any information about the application was updated after it was first submitted, please provide us with the most recent information.

You can try to link the application to this account again in 24 hours. If you're still having trouble, you can contact us by clicking on the "Report a Technical Issue" button on the top menu bar."

Mine's not working. I don't get why? I input the same details from my eCoPR.

Aah this one! I ended up trying all combinations until I hit the jackpot with City/Town of Birth exactly as in my passport rather than the eCOPR. It looks like you will have to try tomorrow though! Good Luck
