Have a similar timeline as you. Photos delivered Feb 19 with an upcoming trip for the beginning of April. Based on recent timelines it appears photo submissions are getting approved within 30 days. It will be close!
Thanks for your reply.Hopefully its here in time. When i landed the officer just took 1 of my picture and i asked her if she needed the 2nd picture and she said no...Not sure why she did that but i believe thats the reason they asked me to resubmit pics again

Oh, wow. I didn't know we had to check manually by logging into the account. I thought that after linking the application to the account, we would be notified by email. I just opened the account now (I hadn't checked it in more than a week), and I just saw my PR card was approved. I didn't receive absolutely any email. I think it was updated today, as it says "Status Updated Date: 2018/02/20". Not sure if I will receive an email tomorrow maybe?

I landed on Jan 11 btw. Just 40 days from landing to approval then! Can't wait to get my card! :)


Thank you so much, DEEPCUR!
Just one more detail to add to my previous message, today I was anyway notified over the email as well about the status change of my PR card application. I remembered that even for past applications (e.g. for the BOWP) I got notified about one day after the actual status change. So, if the application is linked to your IRCC account, you are going to receive an email when the PR is approved, but if you check the website every day you can get to learn a bit earlier if the application was actually approved.

Congrats!, hopefully you will get your card soon, just wondering, did your status changed to "The additional documents you provided are being reviewed." before your card was approved? I landed on Jan 7th and my status changed to that on Saturday.
hello, did you get approval??

Hello, my gf and I received our pr cards today in the mail. We applied separate for pr and landed on Jan 2nd in Toronto. When my gf was doing landing she was able to change her mailing address with the officer was told that she would receive pr card in that address. The officer that did my landing process did not want to change my address and gave me an Address notification form ( the one that you have to fax). I tried the two online tools to change my address but my application was never recognized.
I sent an IRCC webform on Jan 3rd to notify my change of address, but never got a confirmation.
Today I was able to get a hold of cic and the officer told me that my address was changed on Jan 3rd and my pr card was sent last friday. Today we got our pr cards too!
So IRCC webform does work.
Also, be aware that on the letter, it does state "Do not Forward", so get your address changed if you move and do not rely on mail forwading if you are planning to do so.
Thanks to everyone in this forum. Your help and experiences are greatly appreaciated.
Good luck

Thanks for mentioning the "do not forward" indication on the envelope of the letter. I was planning on moving to a different address and use the mail forwarding, but it's good a did not do it. I will just wait for my card for now.

Thanks!

LOL, same case with me. I sent a change address request via webform weeks ago (address update form has been failing), but never got confirmation. I decided to wait it out earlier with the client support centre agent (30 mins), they confirmed my address in their record was the new one already.

A quick update on my application. I landed Dec 15 but my frd who landed a week after me received the card. So I got to talk to an agent last Thurs and turns out the application was approved Feb 4, however the online system for my application is still showing 'processing'(just checked, it still is). The agent verified the mailing address first and there were two on file, shes not sure if thats delaying the process. The application somehow wasn't sent for production after approval and she sent a message to let the office start printing. Tomorrow I'll call cic again...

For those who are a lil behind the time or had your agent help with your application so that cic might mess up the addresses, i suggest calling to confirm your status, the online system isn't accurate in my case. I used 3-4-1-0 to pass all the automated messages.
