Hi everyone,

So I did my landing on December 13 and here I am 3 months later (87 days), still waiting. Apparently, my application is undergoing "verification" and/or "additional checks" and the call center (completely useless) are telling me it can take up to 3 more months. Meanwhile, I've spent $400 rebooking my flight twice. My passport expires May 25.

What's the status in ecas? Did you see what's in GCMS Notes?
I never heard that they do verification and additional checks after landing.

In ECAS, for most of us it shows that the PR Application status as "Complete" and it does show two addresses after you land. That's the address where your cards would be sent to. Do you see the same or did you see any difference?

Update: Checked my ECAS, and I'm able to see a section called "Permanent Resident Card Application" and I'm able to see the status as "In Process". Tried checking in using my spouse and kids client id, it shows for them also..

Nothing shows up for me. The PR application is complete but there is no section for PR card.

No PR card section for me either. I guess we have to wait a little bit more before can see it there. I only landed on March 1. When did you land?

Hello CECFEB2013,

for your PR card application section, did it say when CIC start processing your request for PR card application?

I landed on Jan 25, 2014 and it is currently in progress. I wonder when I will receive my card after they start processing.

Thanks
Sandra
