When filling out city of birth, make sure you put whatever it says on your passport, even if it’s a province/state. As for the date, go to the COPR section of your online account, put the date of “status updated date”. If this doesn’t work, try different combinations of dates and place of birth, capital letters, etc. Hope you can link your application successfully!

how did u link your account ?
My photos reached there on Feb 10 but still I am unable to link the account to the file
I used the UCI + LAST Name combination to link the application.
I also had to use Approved Date (instead of COPR Date). And also use my Place of Birth as in Passport. Like "City, Province"
All these in capital letter. Good luck.

I sent to Vancouver Hornby St office (Downtown). I linked my application after 1 month since i sent the photos (As I was unaware we can link applications). And I got only one update after linking the application - i.e. your application was approved.
Overall the current time taken by Vancouver office is approximately 35-40 days for approval + 10 days shipping.

Can anyone help me on the same..

Can we only link the application when its received or before..

I don't know when my application/status updated as its been through the agent. The date I only have is the one when the copr document is issued. I can't connect the application :(
