Hey no update till now, I think we are in a situation where we need to make some noise. Call IRCC/VFS, send emails, raise web forms. Contact Canadian MP if possible.

I will wait 2 more days and start doing the above. This is unacceptable on many counts.
I agree with you. I have already raised webform couple of times and got the generic reply. Calling VFS is not helping - already tried.
Trying to see if there is a contact number for IRCC.

I am hoping we will receive update on our passport sometime next week. Please let me know if you receive any further updates.
Hey, I got a message from IRCC in my portal regarding issuance of COPR/Visa with counterfoil number and validity. Although no update on passports dispatch. How about you?
