Apparently they had an issue with one of the card printers breaking down, so the printing of new cards is being delayed. Some people have been told it may take 4-6 weeks instead of the normal 2 weeks to receive the card.

I am at 2 weeks exactly since my license was issued, and I also have not received the card in the mail yet.

Or it's been broken since I applied for my PAL about 5 years ago.

My card has a very yellow picture. Probably broken then too. They should get a new printer from Staples. 🤣
