Can you postpone a week later. Seems october 15th got approved this week, so probably your application will be approved this week and will be receiving your card next week.I landed on October 17th, and could not link my application.
Today I called CIC and got a very rude agent, he was abrupt and said because of holidays you will receive your card not before 1st week of January.
He wasn't willing to even check as 61 days haven't passed yet.
I am travelling on December 11th and PRTD is the option if I did not receive my PR cards before that. However, looking at the pace at which people are receiving their cards, I am hopeful.
