Were you asked for fingerprints? Can you give your timeline?

Just got webform response, but useless, since I wasn't provided any reason as to why the delay other than my application is still "in-process". Honestly, at this point I think 'Sauga office is finding every excuse in the book to delay applications while other offices are actually better in responding atleast.

I feel so unlucky to have landed my application with this office. :(

Hi, Congratulation on an update! I haven't seen anyone with passport request get LPP done yet. What id you mean by following up and resubmitting? Did IRCC follow-up on the request or did you resend the passport again on the 30th?

Thanks!

I sent a follow up email stating that I did not get any acknowledgement or update since I first submitted the scanned passport pages 2 weeks ago.

On a side note, make sure to strictly follow the instructions in the letter. If it tells you to replace the Subject in a certain format, do it exactly as stated.

Mine said "In your email of reply, change the subject line to your application number and your last name."

On my first email, I changed my subject line to C####### - LastName then nothing happened.
The second time, when I did my follow-up, I changed my subject to C####### LastName (without the dash) and this is when I received an automated response.

I suspect that this caused the delay for me.
