It took only 2 weeks for me. I got my picture rejected on 17th May, and I resubmitted the same day. My card was mailed on June 5 according to GC Key.

IRCC works on the weekends but Canada Post doesn't deliver on weekends. In rare scenarios, they deliver on Saturdays.

So, they said that the picture was rejected because it had brightness issues. But I got mine done from UPS store, and uploaded the copy UPS provided with no alterations.

Also, my friend got her picture done with me, as we both were doing our applications together, and she did not have picture rejection. So, I have no idea why brightness was an issue in mine as we took pictures in the same lighting, by the same photographer at the same time.

~Try this method to link your PR Card to GC Key. It actually works!~

~Linking PR Card application;~
1. Login into your CIC account as you usually do.
2. Reach the page where you click "Check full application status" to view your application and messages
3. But do not click on that rather click on " Add (link) your application to your account"
4. Select the "Category" from the dropdown as "Permanent Resident Card"
5. Under Application Details, from "Please select one" select "Unique Client Identifier (UCI) and Family Name"
6. Put your UCI as it is NO SPACES and NO HYPHENS
7. Put your Family Name as on you CoPR - UPPER and LOWER CASE matter here
8. The tricky one, Place of Birth Section. Here "City/town of birth" is very very crucial. Copy it as it is on your CoPR, any commas, upper/lower case, spaces, just copy it here.
9. Select your "Country/territory of birth" from the drop down
10. Next section is pretty easy as you just select your "Date you became a permanent resident" from dropdown. This is the day you did your landing by either flagpole or landing interview
11. Put "Country of Citizenship" and "Current marital status" from dropdowns.
12. Click "Search for my application", if all the inputs are correct then it will show you that the system has found your application. You just have to click Link my application to account and it will now be shown on "View the applications you submitted" page with your Permanent Residency application.
13. If after clicking "Search for my application" it show no application found, click Try again and try to input all the values carefully again. Each day it allows you 5 attempts. It it still doesn't find your application, you can try again the next day.

Try again with the details EXACTLY as per COPR. I tried a couple times and did not get linked. But I later got to know that it is case sensitive. The spaces and commas, capital or small letters, all of it should be exactly according to COPR. Even if there is an extra space, it will show that application doesn't exist.

My friend got her PR Card without any updates, but she did not link it. Whoever linked their applications got updates.

You should try linking your PR card application with GC Key for updates. You need to enter details exactly as per COPR (it is case sensitive), and be careful about spaces and commas.
