Track your PR card timeline and processing times here

[eksray]

Hello everyone. I arrived to canada on 31st March...I didnt get my PR card...I am leaving...I have spent lot of money. Its the worst time for immigration ladies and gentleman. I still dont know when I can receive this PR card. Can anyone tell me if they recieved their card ?? People who entered to canada in march are you here??

Adding to what the fellas said above, and if your nearest VAC is closed, the PRTD application can be filed by email nowadays (somewhat less frictions). Check here for more info: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigratio...ovid19/permanent-residents.html#outsidecanada

Btw it looks like no change to processing time today
Remains at 113 days as of June 9th, I was really hoping it will drop to/below 100 days.

Yeah, same. I was hoping for some movement, too.

Also PR renewal time has been raised from 166 days back to 174 days. It’s like they alter the numbers week-on-week without using any new data in calculations.

So nothing further needed as per "proof" besides COPR?

Ideally I'll have a PR card by the time I move permanently (sometime Fall this year), but if not I am hoping to use the COPR as travel document while driving across land border. I assume that the signed COPR will suffice?

As long as you're in a private car, you can cross any land border with copr (must be signed and stamped- that's what makes you a PR). My sister and I went to the US twice with copr (and passport with US visa of course) before lockdown driving from Ontario to upstate NY and back with no issues.

Pr card or prtd are for public transportation company/airline personnel to verify your status. So you cannot use copr on greyhound, train, plane, etc.

vs land border, in a private car, you answer to no one until you present yourself to CBSA official who can verify your status. Hope that makes sense

I've also since got a job with copr and sin number.

Now the long wait begins. Processing time is 113 days.

But I have landed on 31st March... i believe the counting start from the day I have landed not the date I have linked my application, technically I am 70 days since landing, so I dont think these 70 days were just gone due to not linking the application, or?

Starts from when you landed. No requirement to link it

Thank you very much for your feedback. do you think they can exceed 113 days they set now? I will put my uncle address and leave canada, but he is already going to change an apartement but no fix date yet, so i am wondering if the 113 is a sure fixed time, i dont know if anyone has exceeded that time...
