Also curious, what has been holding your application for so long? Have you been outland at some point?
No, I've been inland this whole time. My file literally wasn't picked up due to COVID as it is being processed at Ottawa, and they haven't been at full staff for months. My Eligibility was marked as Recommend Pass in January 2021. Application wasn't picked up again till September 2021.

That’s what I’ve been asking. He must be
No

you can start the work permit application for her right away-- thats ok, it will take some time though-- im hoping that in your case, your CEC app is advanced enough that they just have to check simple stuff for your spouse (medical, etc) and would take a max of 4 months from now
Thank you for your input. And my spouse applied for the work permit.

I think my wait has been over now. I was waiting with the status of 'Security Not Started' since March 2021.
AOR: AUG 07 2021.
Thanks to the members of this forum and this thread which helped me a lot to stay optimistic. I recently got my portal confirmation email for PR. It appears that they did extend my medical exam validity and sent the email. Currently, I am outside of Canada and returning in a week's time. Should I wait until my return to reply to the confirmation email? Also, my spouse had applied for the work permit based on my work permit status. What happens to her application? Should I tell her to withdraw it and start the sponsorship application right away? As always, any valuable inputs would be highly appreciated.

Could anyone provide some input regarding my situation? Thanks in advance.

You follow the instructions in the email/ message you received.
Thanks for reply. It is only mentioned that for individual applicant what all documents are required and all documents should be in single package. But nothing is mentioned if dependent family members should also be in same package or separate one.
