Note: Any issues with VFS use their "chat now" option from https://visa.vfsglobal.com/usa/en/can/contact-us
It might say try again once you enter your details. Just try few more times and you will be shown as in queue with numbers 4-5 people before you which actually takes around 20-40 min. The customer service people are extremely helpful at least in my case.
One trick you can do is send an email to info.canny@vfshelpline.com before starting the chat. The customer service chat people do not have access to the VFS systems, but they can initiate a reply to your emails. So whatever concern or request you have you can email first and they can reply with what you can do when you chat with them.
Also any immediate concerns email to escalations.canny@vfsglobal.com

Hi, the counterfoil expiry date is one year from the date our medicals were approved.
Hi! When were you able to track the application using the Tracking ID they provided ? After the package was dispatched from IRCC to VAC?

Went through the process for the second time after our visas expired as we couldn’t travel due to the pandemic. Looking forward to the future with a sigh of relief! All the best to everyone.

did VAC send out emails about the passport? FedEx delivered my passport last week, but I received no email from VFS VAC. And I called them today they said it's been sent to the Embassy. Not exactly sure how VAC notifies people? :|Thank you! Yes NY VAC
Did you ask for your tracking number , you will receive a tracking number when they sent it to VAC. Check your spam email just in case. You will receive multiple emails in 2-3 days after VFS receives your passports. Also did you use VFS 2 way courrier or an out service like UPS?
I forgot to ask them for the tracking number - does the tracking number start with 'CAN' ? I used the VFS 2 way courier service.
No. The one with CAN is your reference number. That you will get in VFS portal. When your passports are delivered to VFS, they send you email with tracking number. With that you can track your application status.
