I got my eCoPR from Etobicoke on 27th May but I haven't gotten PR card approval yet. I am supposed to travel outside Canada for non-urgent reasons. Can I ask IRCC to expedite my PR Card application? How do I go about with this?

I linked my PR card application to my CIC account but it just says 'Submitted'.

Hi All,
I’ve been silently following your updates for over a year now. It’s been very helpful for me to go through the waiting time, and felt like I owe you this update, so I registered to inform you that I got the 1st ghost update today, August 20th. My photos were delivered on April 13th, 2021 to the Etobicoke office.

It looks like they’re finally working on April applications!! :D
I got my 2nd GU today, August 27th: PR card approved and mailed! :D

I noticed that they’re processing the applications faster now. There’s 6-7 days only between GU1 to GU2 now instead of over two weeks. Hoping everyone get their updates and approval soon :)

Still need to wait for the card but I’m so happy to close out this chapter. Happy to wait for it now, my main goal was to make it home for Xmas, it’s been 3 years since I’ve seen my family.

Wishing everyone all the best, we had to cope with honestly one of the worst run departments I’ve ever experienced in my life!
