The capacitor instantly achieves its final charge.

The current through the resistor is the same for all times after the circuit is connected.
When the capacitor is fully charged, there is no current flowing through the resistor.
The charge on the capacitor increases exponentially and the current through the resistor decreases exponentially.

Immediately after the switch is closed, the current through the resistor is a maximum.
After a very long time, the current through the resistor is a maximum.
After a very long time, the voltage across the capacitor is the same as the voltage source.
After a time = RC (the product of the resistor and capacitor values), the voltage across the resistor is ~37% of its initial value.
