These are very specific circumstances. You will need to deal with IRCC, private sponsors and any group like IOM facilitating your claim and safe passage to Canada.

Or it could be just the “ usual “ delay. Sponsor reached out to IRCC via lawyer and only response we got it “ request was added to the file”

Yes your file could be waiting for processing. This is an unusual circumstance so hard to say how long it will take.
