Have you tried contacting your local MP? Contacting, as in, call them, not email. We all know people working in the government have tendency to ignore emails. Try calling your local MP, and ask them if they can do anything. And how about GCMS notes? I hope you'll get your passport soon.

exactly the same thing happened to me i sent my passport like 13 weeks ago . did my landing today. my advice: ask your MP for help if you are waiting for long those are really powerful people n if yours is helping would even push cic if they are taking too long on your application.

btw i owe this forum a lot so thank you all.

BIG NEWS

I GOT MY passport back on friday @ 7 PM in evening.
Surprise package >>

Tracker never got active.... thou it came through the same express post

Another surprise...
Visa stamp says 26th Feb.... so they got my passport on 18th and stamped me immigrant on 26th feb...
but passport was shipped on 9th May as per the Landing paper print.

So my friends' who are waiting here since Feb

Clear few doubt's

1. Dont think they have not stamped it, they have stamped ur visa ; its only the outgate process which is getting delayed.
2. They aren't doing any more checks.... coz they dont have that much time to do
3. I got an email saying sorry for the delay; due to high volume of files we are running behind schedule.

SO DO NOT WORRY>>>>>> We will get it.

Congrats to all who got their trackers activated, or those who got their passports back :) It's encouraging to see people who have waited more than two months have already started getting their passports back.

They did follow up. I contacted my MP (not about the whereabout of my passport, but because I accidentally sent some random unrelated items that were not requested along with my passport, and if possible and without causing delay, I want these items back), and after a week, I asked the MP office, and they told me their contact at Ottawa has contacted him back, saying that the passport is in queue for finalization and visa printing (we all know that this process can still take weeks), and they will try to return the unrelated items if they can find them.

Contact your local MP as soon as possible (by phone call), and you will hear something back from Ottawa in a week. If you just email Ottawa, then the email would just go to the whole mailbox of CPP-Ottawa, and things must be super confusing on that mailbox. MP has specific contact at CPP-Ottawa (like specific person they are contacting directly), so in a week, they'll hear something back.

GUYS,

After the lose of my passport, I finally received my brand-new passport yesterday. With the new passport and COPR, I headed to the border and landed !! Mission completed ( for now )

Lesson learnd:

Dont overly joyful if they activated your envelop, they MAY NOT use the returned envelop that you provided. They will not send your pp and copr to your home if you have a representative.

Even if you lost your passport, do not contact CIC, apply for a new one asap. As soon as you got the new one, land with the COPR. Officer at the border can manually adject your PP info on the COPR. If you contacted CIC, they may cancel your COPR and create a huge delay.
