You can send an email to IRCC.ClientPortalPrairies-PrairiesClientPortail.IRCC@cic.gc.ca with UCI / Application number and mention that since when you are waiting after PR application was approved and the urgency reason to receive the first pr card. For me, I sent an email on 12/10 and see that the card has been mailed on 12/20.

Hey Thanks for sharing this info. I had received my eCOPR on 28th Oct'21 and waiting for my PR card.
Is that okay if I send an email to that ID.. ? also what do we need to mention in that email apart from Name, UCI & application number to get my PR card on priority list. Highly appreciated your input here. Thanks in advance.

Hi

On the linking issues... I can share my exp and hope fully that will help you.

I tried to link my dependents to CIC account, but failed to do so. I called the IRCC and requested to give Application Number (different to the Express Entry Number). This number starts with R .

I also asked to confirm the Birth Place value there in the system. In my case.. I was entering birth place to link it. But in the system confirmed by IRCC agent that They have 'Birth Place, State/Country name ' together as birth place.

Due to this mismatch of the information, I was unable to Link it . Once I got the correct information from IRCC agent about Application Number and Birth place, I was able to link it.

You can try that option and i' sure there is a mismatch of the data.

Coming back to Delay on the PR cards, For Many cases... sending emails will work. Make sure you add crisp and short msg in the body and also subject line is short and meaningful.

Try sending an email early hours( 9 AM to 9:30 AM or 3:30 PM to 4:00PM). The reason is that, all emails will go to one Inbox. So in order to get quick attention, the mail should be on top of the inbox to get some one's attention. This is Just a tip and worked for many.


Good Luck.

How long after applying for PR card should I wait before sending them an email? Thanks

I sent an email to Calgary office, my office is Ottawa though. They replied yesterday and it seems they want to create a portal profile for me so I can upload my photo again! not sure why I should go through the confirmation of my Canadian residential address and photo over again but I hope the second round of PR card application won't take another 6 months.

update: as I guessed, they requested me to login to the PR Portal and submit a photo and confirm the address in Canada.
After I submitted the documents, the application number for PR Card is unchanged. it's linked to the existing application I have in my CIC account.
Not sure if they also regenerate an eCoPR again, but I hope what we're doing results in a PR Card production.
