Hi, Usually the email comes a day after you see this in MyCIC.
Yes it means its ready and could have already be on its way or at least will be sent very soon.
You should receive your PR card by the next week or so.

Hi, the best way is to call CIC and ask them if there is any notes in your file to suggest a need for photos or anything. They will normally say you need to wait for the 61 days to pass to call about this but they are usually kind enough to look into your file. Just tell them you are worried about needing to send new photos.
if you applied while you were living in Canada then your are inland ,otherwise you are outland.
BTW I landed on 5-Sep (Outland) ,my PR card status is approved .I think tomorrow I will receive the update email
Finally I was able to link my application and it was showing as submitted and in progress. Simultaneously I called call centre and they informed me that it is approved and not yet issued! What does that mean? I am praying that I should not get photo request
Roughly count 2 months, normally IRCC send an email/notification that you need to re-submit a new photo after 2 months of landing. But if you won't be required to submit a photo, the PR card would be received within the 3rd month of landing.
So if you landed Sep, wait till Nov for any request to submit a new photo. If you won't be required to submit a photo, PR card will be received within Dec. Thats based on some of the experiences posted here.
Wow! You had 2 photo request from IRCC? Is this for the same person/application?
My PR card has been approved!
Timeline:
Landed: September 4th, 2017
Status changed to "reviewing documents": October 20, 2017
Approved in CIC Account: October 23, 2017
No request for additional photos, shockingly.

Hi detailsreq,
Congrats!!! Once you get the PR card could you please update which photo they used, whether the ones received on Aug 21st or Sep 5th. That would give us an idea which date IRCC is processing.
For those of you who can't link their PR card to CIC; call IRCC. When I called to change address, the agent told me that an address was never entered. I found out one month after landing. Now I can link my account, but it obviously delays when I get my card. Also messes up travel plans

Hi skarme312,
Is everything fine, if it links to MyCIC account without any issues?Or further phone call to follow up is required?In my case, the immigration officer asked " are you using the same address mentioned in your work permit" and she told that she is going to enter the same and I was able to link successfully within few hours.
Thanks,
Kalpan
