Buckle up, 4 months is nothing. You might end up waiting far beyond 6 months, I waitiled for 9 months and 1 day in total, without any updates for almost 7 months.

The fact that you don't see any updates on your account doesn't mean they are not updating and working on it.

IRCC hasn't stopped processing PR applications, I would expect delays, but they certainly won't stop processing.

Read the notices in their webpage.

Working from home will put additional constraints on processing applications. Therefore, you may expect delays. CEC applicants can apply for the bridgework permit though.

IRCC twitted that they arre processing as usual and trying to avoid any delays. You probably can expect slight delays but it hasn't stopped. Check your junk mail too.

These are for citizens of 3 countries only. They don't clarify what happens to the people waiting for their COPR and other stuff to be approved/issued.
If you only read the whole thing not just the first section.

If you are waiting for a final decision on your PR application, you just continue to wait until you hear from them as you were before the pandemic. Again, just read the whole thing.
