My assumption for those who sent their passports for visa stamping and COPR on later dates which is after Aug 29 and Aug 30 received passport and COPR before us their VO must be other than CPC Ottawa as per the current trend CPC Ottawa is taking anywhere between 4-6 weeks to process. My wife submitted her passport to NDVO and she received it back within 3 days whereas I submitted before her and still didn't receive it.
This is for CPC Ottawa where couple of 1st Sept got it

Guys, if I'm from one of those countries that just have to send scanned copies of the passport, won't it take less than for others who have to submit the actual passport?
I've received update and my application details in MyCic were changed and now says "Approved" only 2 days after they received my package. Does it mean it's been stamped and approved? Thank you!

My timeline:
PPR Date: Sep 5th
Passport Sent Date: Sep 7th
Courier Passport Delivered Date: Sep 11th
PR application details in MyCIC changed to approved: Sep 13th

My application was approved today as well. It tells me to see the message below but there’s no new message below. Not sure when I will get my passport back yet.

Wait for 1-2 weeks. My case was approved on Aug 17 and I got the COPR on Aug 25

Hi Friends
Does any one know that for outland applicants who send their passports for COPR to CPC-Ottawa, when Visa is stamped on passports, who updates MyCIC with "approved" and "decision made", Whether it is the respective outland visa office or CPC-Ottawa where passport is sent.

No updates on CIC account... ☹
I would wait until next week and see if the status changes as from what I have read on this forum Application status should first change to Approved and that's when the return label activates having said that there's nothing to worry as it should change no later then next week for you if it didn't already. There are delays longer then expected CIC agent advised me to wait until the end of this month and call them back in first week of October so we know and aware that this is an ongoing trend now
