Congrats for BIL! About the account I did not recommend link it to your GC Key as yet since your lawyer will do all the first steps and he will communicate with you for any further needs, but later for p1 and p2 yes if you want.

P1 (Portal 1 Email) : The first email IRCC sends when your permanent residence (PR) application is near finalization.
P2 (Portal 2 Email) : The follow-up email IRCC sends after they process your reply to P1 and create your account on the IRCC Permanent Resident Confirmation Portal.
The P2 email provides your login credentials for the portal. Once logged in, you must:
• Confirm that you are physically present in Canada.
• Provide your current Canadian mailing address (where your PR card will be mailed).
• Upload a digital photo that meets IRCC specifications.

Congrats again and you will get your PR soon!

Any comments on what will happen after the BIL appointment? One of my friends waited for like a year to get the P1 and P2 messages. I have seen some of the timelines on the forum and they're very promising
