@zestylaw As of today, I am able to link my application using GCkey. I got application number today when I tried to link application in the portal
https://onlineservices-servicesenligne.cic.gc.ca . I was not able to link the application before June 28th. The status in portal mentioned above , now shows "We are processing your application. We will send you a message when there is an update or if we need more information from you.". So it seems like they are starting the process on our application approximately 30 days from application submission date. But once they start the process, they might give decision in less than a week or so. I am really I get decision made as approved in less than week and get my PR card in next 10 days maximum. Let's hope for the best !
