IRCC issued 25000 Invitations only in the month of july,2024. think about the backlog IRCC will have now for ecoprs. with recent layoffs it makes sense why there is such a long delay for Ecoprs.

They literally bit off more than they could chew on this one. They should have planned this better, even if they were going to lay off so many employees.

Since your eCOPR was recent, why not just call IRCC and see if they can change your address ? I guess again they should be able to accommodate.
Hi, I called IRCC this morning and the agent advised me to wait until the 6 weeks has passed then I need to submit the solemn declaration to IRCC so they can issue a new PR card for my family. They also updated our address on file but I still need to wait for the 6 weeks processing time. This is so frustrating :confused: need to wait for another 2 months. Do you know of anyone that submitted the solemn declaration if PR card was not received?

Hey Guys,
I am getting anxious while waiting for PR Card.
ecopr: Feb 20
PR Card linked to GCkey: Feb 23
GU 1: Feb 27 (FD got a date but it still says file under process)

Its been 11 days and I still have not received GC 2 or the notification stating that the card has been mailed. My concern is if it is normal to take this long to process PR card?

This whole process has been a nightmare.

I have registered only to respond to your question (no kidding).

A dataset with 511 cases with eCOPRs in 2025 suggests that

* The longest recorded P2-to-eCOPR wait is 105 days
* 95% of cases (the 95th percentile of P2-to-eCOPR in days) get their eCOPR within 93 days since P2
* 99% of cases get it within 101 day

Moreover, after 90 days pass (in your case that would be Mar 23, 2025), you can call IRCC, explain the situation (that you need to travel urgently) and ask for the eCOPR issuance to be escalated.

There are some things in your question that you leave out, so I will mention that

* This week the consistency of ITA dates has been incredible. Almost 3 reported cases out of 4 have an ITA in July. July 2024 had 25K people invited, so it will take a while to process that batch but then August had 11K and September about 6K, so things will naturally accelerate for that reason
* The dominant AOR month currently is August
* The dominant P2 range is from late Nov through mid-December

All of this data is to say: now you know what to do after March 23, and statistically speaking, you are virtually guaranteed to get your eCOPR by April, even though the dataset used to produce these observations is small in the grand scheme of things.

HTH.

P.S. No, I will not share my dataset for many reasons. Everyone around this forum is welcome to collect one of your own and compute the distribution of AOR-to-eCOPR or P2-to-eCOPR dates, the correlation with ITA or AOR dates for a given period, and so on.

Thank you to everyone who shares their complete timelines, including the underappreciated ITA date, though! One day I might start posting some monthly numbers here to pay it back to this community.
This is sick. Thank you. I feel like I still can wait til March 23.

did the agent say that card was mailed out ? if it is still under process, it should be sent to updated address, isnt it?
SD is meant for 6 weeks longer that processing time - https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/application-forms-guides/solemn-declaration-lost-stolen-destroyed-never-received-permanent-resident-card.html

Hi all,
I got ecopr on 10Feb, on 13 Feb, i was asked to upload my photo again. Haven’t heard anything since then. Is it normal to take that long for review of photo?
