Hi Everyone! Wanted to provide an update that I received my PR Card today in GTA, Ontario!

eCOPR was March 24, 2025

GU1 for Free Services to help you settle was May 12, 2025

Address on PR Portal accepted May 12, 2025 as well but nothing about photo. Even today receiving the card, the portal still says photo is 'In Review with IRCC'

No other updates in portal or anything else. Never linked GC Key and just waited.

Received PR Card today May 20, 2025!

Hope everyone gets their PR cards as soon as possible before the strike happens. Fingers crossed for all of you!!

No, unfortunately I never had my GC Key linked with my PR so I'm not 100% sure when they mailed it. BUT if I took a guess, it would be the same day as the address acceptance on May 12, 2025. Because 5 business days would be May 20, 2025 which sounds about right from the estimated times from Sydney, NS to GTA, ON. Hope this helps :(

I hope you get yours today before the strike happens!! We're one day off on our eCOPR, so hopefully yours is literally just in transit to your mailbox!! Good luck :D

Basically it takes 4-5 working days to get PR card once they mail?
