No reply after confirming your PR confirmation email details? What to check and expect

Documents Needed

  • PR confirmation email reply

    Sent back to IRCC with requested details (email, UCI, etc.) after receiving the initial PR confirmation email.

  • PR portal profile

    Created once IRCC issues portal credentials, used to track the eCoPR (electronic Confirmation of Permanent Residence).

Step-by-Step

After IRCC sends a PR confirmation email asking for details in reply, it's common to worry when there's no response within a few days.

What group members advised:
  1. Check spam/junk folders first — replies and follow-ups from IRCC sometimes land there instead of the inbox.

  2. A typical turnaround is fast — often the next day. One member who replied with the requested details received PR portal credentials the very next day, followed shortly by their eCoPR.

  3. Creating the PR portal profile yourself (rather than waiting) is common practice and was reported by more than one member without apparent issue, though outcomes can vary by case.


If several days pass with no response and spam folders are clear, it's reasonable to follow up, but based on this thread a next-day response before or during eCoPR issuance is a realistic timeline to expect.

Dos, Don'ts & Tips

  • Tip: Check spam/junk folders before assuming IRCC hasn't responded.
  • Tip: A next-day turnaround for portal credentials after replying with requested details is a realistic timeline based on other applicants' experience.
