Dear All

Today I just open and see my ePR status approved, then check notification of approval on My ICA was sent on 21 Nov 2019. But until now haven't received PR IPA letter.
Can someone advise me, how long normally PR IPA letter will be mail deliver to the address ?
If until 2 weeks haven't received IPA letter, how to ask to ICA ? it's possible to come directly to ICA office ?
Appreciate if someone can advise me on this, thanks

Hi, You may write to ICA to facilitate the process. If you moved house within your PR application period, the letter might have been sent to your old house.

Hope this helps!

Maximum 2-3 weeks. If not, wait for 2-3 weeks and then approach ICA via email/visit ICA building.

if for one of them it took 6 months and another 18 months, what will you analyze based on that?

So there is a pattern on the processing time then. Why are you so against me asking just a simple question?

What pattern can you observe if one applicant got approved in 3 months and another got rejected also in 3 months? Now, the one got approved earns $3,500 a month while the one who got rejected earns $15,000 monthly. Third person got approved after waiting for 15 months.

SF or any regulars here is not against you asking the question. Even by knowing the background/profile, you still won’t be able to make much sense out of the pattern. So how long is a piece of string?

P/s I got my PR approved in 7 weeks, yes, 1 month and 3 weeks.

Hope it helps in your pattern analysis and good luck in both your analysis and PR application.

I thought forum is suppose to be a platform where members can share their views and questions. Just a simple question can trigger many unpleasant responses? If the question about when the member applied for PR is not allowed, should have just put this a forum rule.

Not against you or any questions that you have asked. Just trying to mentally prepare you that looking out for patterns will not help. If you focus on your career, job, education, etc PR will automatically come along the way, when it is supposed to come.

Thanks bro. Apology if i created a misunderstanding. Just bored waiting for the outcome and reading posts here n wanted to post a question.

Thanks for ur advice too, i personally thought career, education n other profile do tick but seems like a long wait for processing.
