I landed on July 16th and haven't received a pr card yet.

I just called the cic call centre to verify the status of my pr card and the agent told me that my application is in further review. I asked her what is the purpose of this review, but she doesn't have answer for that.

Is there anyone know what exactly the further review is for?

or anyone in the same situation?


im in the same situation do you have an update on yours?? i called today and they just said its under review we will write to you

hey ive just had the same info from CIC call centre to say PR card has not been issued as under review, im freaking out. Im in the process of buying a house :/

I landed August 9th, she said they write to me. No timeline nothing
Why would you freak out? You are already PR... Do they require the PR card for you to buy the house? :mad:

Hi,

I am a Dec 2013 applicant and I landed on 06 Sept 2014. My application status on Ecas shows "Complete" and the last update says "You entered Canada at the Niagara Falls Rainbow Bridge office on September 6, 2014 and became a Permanent Resident." How and where can I track my PR card status. Can someone please help?
I have the same exact status as you. I landed inland in Montreal on August 21 and I see no where on ECAS to verify the status of PRC. I am guessing this is the case for inlanders?

Hi,
i have planned my trip to India in end of October...but i hvnt received my p.r. card yet... i need more info on getting travel document to enter into Canada.. plz help me..like where should i apply and how many days it takes to process ur application...my nearest Canadian office is Chandigarh branch...
Thank you
I have read somewhere on this trend that if you have a friend or family member that could mail you the card while overseas, then you are good to go. There's risk nevertheless. Being that some had to go through verification due to passport photo.

Did you tried calling CIC call center?, I would suggest call them to see what is happening ,

Is it under review or they need new photos or what?

Yesterday mine hit day 42, and a new status appeared in my ECAS, showing the date they received and started to process my PR card application. 1 month might b a little too soon. But timelines are certainly not a constant here hahah. You will get it soon. Hang in there.

Cheers Mut

Hi,

I would like to ask you guys, who can see online the progress of the PR card, can you tell me how it looks like?
If I login to ECAS, I can see only 1 "line"/entry saying Complete, and if I click on it to see the details the last message is saying where and when I landed.
This will turn to "In process" and in the same list it will say "We have received your PR card application...", etc., or it should be a new "line"/entry?
I landed on Aug 23rd and no any update in ECAS up to now....
Worst case I'll contact with CIC.

Thanks! :)

If they update it and its not always the case you will get a second status, looks like the first but titled PR Card Application or similar. It will have a selectable status hyperlink which will take you to the steps completed thus far. i.e we received on ... we started processing on.... etc. Eventually the hyperlink status will show complete.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

I read in the CIC website that "ECAS" statuses are generally updated every Tuesday. (If at all they update !! - I have seen applicants reporting no update or late updates as well)
Also "Processing Time" estimates are generally updated on Fridays. (Again if at all CIC updates)

I have applied my PR along with my wife and we landed in Carway on 22nd June 2014. I got my PR card in Sep first week but I am still waiting for my wife's PR card which we didn't receive. When I checked with CIC, they are saying that some other officer is verifying the data and will not be able to give any expected date. This is weird. Anyone faced/facing the same issue.
