Forgot to include height/eye colour when replying to your PR Confirmation portal email — what to do

Documents Needed

  • Height and eye colour

    Requested by IRCC's PR Confirmation portal team in addition to standard reply information

Step-by-Step

After receiving IRCC's email initiating the Permanent Resident Confirmation portal process (which asks applicants to reply with certain personal details, including height and eye colour), an applicant realized after hitting reply that they'd forgotten to include their height and eye colour.

What the thread confirmed:
  1. Simply send a follow-up email to the same thread noting that you forgot to include the missing information (height and eye colour) in your first reply.

  2. This is a common, low-risk mistake — multiple members reported doing the same thing and having no issues; a second email with the missing details is accepted without penalty.

  3. Accidentally creating your own PR portal account (when IRCC said they'd do it for you) was raised as a separate concern in the same thread — members reassured that IRCC still follows up with portal details in due course regardless.


Practical takeaway: if you missed a piece of requested information (like height/eye colour) in your first reply to the PR Confirmation portal email, just send a prompt follow-up email with the missing details — this is a normal, easily corrected slip that doesn't appear to cause delays or other issues based on shared experiences.

Dos, Don'ts & Tips

  • Do: If you forget requested details (like height/eye colour) in your PR Confirmation portal reply, just send a follow-up email with the missing information.
  • Tip: This is a commonly reported, low-risk mistake — a second email correcting it doesn't appear to cause delays based on shared experiences.
