PORTAL EMAIL RECEIVED!

Here is the interesting bit. Last week after contacting my MP and submitting dozens of webforms, calling IRCC like 4 times I finally had enough and sent an email to the Portal team IRCC.ClientPortal-PortailClient.IRCC@cic.gc.ca - In that email I explained that my application was approved over 50 days ago and I had not received any correspondence from IRCC about the Portal. I then provided the same exact information they usually ask for in the 1st portal email (names, DOB, UCI, Option A to manage the account for both myself and spouse etc). I didn't have much hope and thought for sure they would ignore it. But they didn't.

When I received the portal email today I received the 2nd email (the credentials one) straight away and they had already set up the account for myself and my spouse based on the information I provided in my email to them. So I went straight to confirming my address and uploaded photos and that's it. Now waiting for COPR and PR Card :)

I highly recommend emailing them. Here is what I sent to them:

I have one question regarding your application, and applications of @mstefan @eddieeeeeelyx @tph058. In my GCMS notes, everything is approved, but I have not seen any mention of "RFV." According to latest officer review notes, "File final reviewed..... All requirements met.... APPROVED." Is it the same as RFV? I see that I have CoPR number, Print Queue Number and even PR number, I think as the number pattern is similar to a visa number. Does it mean that I should be able to contact IRCC portal and get my credentials?
never saw RFV in my notes. That might be a step from the old time
