Just to update you guys. My application sent 28th may 2020 for pr renewal , just yesterday i recived an email acknowledging they recieved my application. My status now showing as “ in process” anybody has an idea how long that takes?

its mention in their letter to check the processing time which is shown currently on thier website as 165 days! a friend of mine who is also renewing his pr card called IRCC and was told that the processing time shoing on website is the time they START processing the application! And that he should add 1-2 months extra for PR card to be processed!!!!!!!

anybody recieved an “in process “ status?

Any Feedback would be appreciated.

I submitted my application for renewal in April, last week they acknowledged they received it, they moved it to in process one day after

9 months

This is why when people come on here and say they left renewing their PR card to the last minute they often find little sympathy.

I applied for my PR Card renewal and it shows Decision Made, I don't know what does that mean now, really anxious till I receive my new PR card since my previous PR card expired in the first week of September, similar to other members I was hoping to get citizenship before expiry but everything is a mess now... better safe than sorry

I believe you can renew up to 9 months before it expires.

Mine is expiring in February 2023, maybe I should apply now. Sorry, just joking. I’m about to apply for citizenship and it looks like at this point it’s going to be years

No biometric for pr card renewal

You sure about this? I have looked in the website and says 85$ biometric fee is required.

Let me know if you have an official source that confirms there is no requirement for biometric fee. Thanks,

Go to your link, scroll up, go to “before you apply” section, find the “biometrics” part and have a read.
