In case anyone's interested, here's my super detailed timeline.
My GCMS notes weren't generated until COPR was issued (notes requested May 3, generated May 26, sent to me June 2 - COPR was issued May 20), so I was able to get the notes for the entire application.
One thing I thought was interesting was that my inquiry about the status of COPR (I called the CIC call center) was inlcuded in the GCMS notes.

Warning before you proceed: it's really long and may only be relevant for CEC inland applicants.


CEC Inland
CRS Score: 476
No PCC/upfront RCMP provided (only resided in Canada for 6 months or longer in the last 10 years).
Upfront medical done


Timeline (CIC account/my own tracking):

05/11/2017: Passport sent to Ottawa

05/12/2017: Passport arrived in Ottawa

05/17/2017: Called CIC & inquired about the status of COPR – agent responded that he couldn’t find anything about it in the system yet

@kaykat27 - Good Job!!! May I ask you one (or two) additional info regarding "Annex A", I am not sure how to print that from email since it has not come in the attachment. Do we write or print our details in it? Got PPR on 01-Jun, planning to send the passports by tomorrow. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks!

Hey guys, looking for some advice here. My current working holidays visa ends August 20th.

I have applied for PR inland and my dates are as follows -

Date Lodged - March 29th.
Medical approved April 12th.
Background check is currently at N/A

Do you think I will get my PR before August 20th and should not worry about bridging visa or do you think I should lodge for a bridging visa? Anyone have any idea how long it takes for a bridging visa to get approved?
If you are CEC stream, yours should be done by then.
But you can wait for some more time before applying for BOWP.

You can print it first then write it in, and I think that is the best way to do it as you will want your bar code printed properly (you may not be able to copy that into MS word properly).

Hope this answers your queston,

It is mandatory. Before you take any alternative, get it confirmed with OINP or try to issue a birth certificate.

You would think that it should be okay. But you can always give CIC a call and ask about it.

Hello All,
I submitted my EAPR in march end last week. Today i got a message saying that "we observed that you have not paid your RPRF fee and hence please do the needful".
My status of Review of additional docs also got changed from not applicable to "we need additional documents to process your application. Check your messages below for details"

i checked there was a pdf and it said

This is in reference to your application for a permanent resident visa. The eligibility and admissibility review (security, criminality and/or medical) is currently in process; you will be contacted if additional information is required for that purpose.
At this time our records indicate that you have not paid the required Right of Permanent Residence Fee (RPRF). You must pay this fee before a permanent resident visa can be issued. The RPRF must be paid once for yourself as a principal applicant and once for your accompanying spouse or common law partner, if applicable.
To pay your RPRF, please follow the below instructions:
 Go to our Online Payment webpage
 Read the instructions on each page, and click “Continue” to proceed
 Select the “Immigration” link, followed by “Right of Permanent Residence Fee”
 Enter the number of fee payments (1 or 2) in the box beside the fee of $490
 Click “Submit”
 Proceed to pay your fees by selecting “Pay” and then follow the instructions to pay with Visa, American Express or Mastercard.
Once the payment process is complete, the web site will display your official receipt in PDF format.
You must upload a copy of your receipt to your MyCIC account.
The RPRF will be refunded if the application is refused, if you withdraw your application or if you choose not to use your visa.
Your response to the above requests is required within 7 days.
Regards,
(emp code of the officer)

My question is RPRF was not mandatory hence i had not paid the fee upfront.
1..Does anybody else of march eapr got this email ?
2. Also where should we upload the receipt in MY CIC account? and how?

I did. I paid it using the instructions you received above. You will then be asked if you want to save or download a copy of the receipt which has a barcode on it. You will need to upload that to your document checklist in your application and then resubmit.

fairly straight forward.
