Got a GU yesterday, and after calling today I was told all stages are passed, but my file is still at CPC Ottawa. When will this be transferred to my local VO, and when should I receive an email?

@Jana_M_Calgary - this is the template that I use and I have gotten a detailed updates on my application stages every single time:

To Whom It May Concern, I would kindly like to request an update on the progress of my application. In particular, may I know the following: 1. Is Eligibility passed? 2. Is security passed? 3. Is criminality passed? 4. Has the background check completed? 5. Office currently processing my application? Thank you kindly for taking the time to assist me with these inquiries.
I received the response from ircc today. But it doesn't say anything about group number or covid group. Why?

This is it:


Thank you for contacting Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).

We verified the information on file and can confirm that:

  • The security background verification has not been initiated.
  • The criminal background verification is in process.
  • Your application is currently being processed at the Case Processing Centre (CPC-O) in Ottawa, Ontario.
Due to COVID-19, IRCC is experiencing processing delays and we can't give accurate processing times for most types of applications. Our ability to review and process applications is also being affected.

Rest assured that we are making all the necessary efforts to finalize your application as soon as possible, and that you will be informed when a decision is reached or if additional information is needed.

We hope the information provided is helpful in assisting you with your enquiry.

We would also like to suggest the following online services that might be helpful to you with any immigration, refugee and/or citizenship future requests:

Sincerely,

Stephanie, agent 4489
Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada

Just FYI:
My Aor is July 22, 2020
The lastest update was Sep 2020 about passing medical exam.
Then a finger print in early Oct 2020.
No news since then.

And the bad thing is that my post graduate work permit is about to expire in 29 days and I have not applied to extend it in the hope of getting PR before the expiry date.
So stressful days for me and my family.

How do you know what's your group number?
Is gcms the same as web form?
Thanks
A Group can be identified from the GCMS notes. Agents won't provide it unless you asked them explicitly.
This link was useful for me to understand how to get the GCMS notes several months ago:
https://help.gcmsnotes.com/how-to-order/for-free
We used an ATIP (that's an official name of the process where you request GCMS notes) which is for the people who are within Canada already and is totally free:

ATIP is not totally free. It is practically free at 5 CAD.

Relieve your stress and go apply for a work permit! You will get implied status and if your pr is approved before the work permit is processed, you’ll get your money back. What are you waiting for?..

Really? That would be great but how can I claim the money later on? Is there any option during the work permit process to tell them my PR application is under consideration and is late because of covid?

I don’t know if you are eligible for a work permit extension, you’ll have to find this out yourself first, but when your pr gets approved, they automatically cancel your wp application.

You are definitely eligible for bridging work permit, as you have already applied for your PR. Unless any decision is made on your file you are eligible to get Open work permit.
