I am in the same boat. IRCC received my passport on 13th December. But then, it looks like my case is a bit different as IRCC sent me a procedural fairness letter (PFL) on bank statement concerns. Anyone here received PFL after PPR?

Your application, tracking ID No. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX has been received and is under process at the IRCC Office on 2022/12/13
