PR card timeline (Etobicoke office only)

[Nousernamesadface]

Just saw this post in another forum. I hope they will send the ePortal invitation to all of us since no one is handling the photos by mail!

Whatever gets me the PR card is fine by me.

How long PRTD takes normally? Can I travel after applying for PR Card. Need to travel for 6 weeks & PRTD can be applied only from outside Canada. I have multiple entry business visa valid till 2023. Does the business visa automatically gets cancelled after PR approval? Means, I can't use that to reenter Canada & only options are either PR card or PRTD.

I did read that other status gets invalidated after getting PR, but I didn't find any reference from IRCC on this.

In my case IRCC had approved my PR first then they have also approved my closed work permit application after 3 weeks, I am unsure why they did like that?

Man they are so random. Don't worry about it, let's just hang in there till we get citizenship and don't have to deal with this anymore, lol.

Thank you!

They are acting on random basis. Some other applicant sent their photos in Nov 03 and the photos are approved : https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-i...and-processing-times-here.394703/post-9295358

I guess for non acceptable photos they are sending portal link.

I'm just excited to see them resume operations.
I guess I have set the bar too low.

Now for the possibly long wait...

Today, I received the following response on my Webform enquiry :

All the required documents and information have been received by the responsible office for the moment.

Does that mean that have received my photos? I have sent them on Jan 14 2021.

They will be fast once they ramp up, scanning photos is not a lengthy process.

I sent photos on 3rd November at etobicoke office.
I called the ircc agent today, they said my photos got approved and sent for card printing 2 days back.After that I signed in to the account, and found a ghost update ..
Fingers crossed !

So finally someone from another thread is saying they started working on his pr card ( Etobicoke - photos delivered by regular mail on 3rd of November ).

They will be fast once they ramp up, scanning photos is not a lengthy process.

Exactly. My photos were delivered exactly 4 months after this guy ( 3rd of March), and if I get my card by July, I would be happy.
I'm usually not the most optimistic person when it comes to IRCC, but I do have a feeling that cards/ghost updates will start pouring in. hopefully.
