True that, sadly there is very little we can do from our end to accelerate that process. The illogical to as to how July-Sep applicants are getting their PR approved before us.

Can someone help me understand the next series of steps in the processing of my application? I'd like to know if any of those steps demand my physical presence in Canada like mailing any documents, biometrics etc.? I'm planning to visit India for 2 months and wanted to ensure there are no major challenges while travelling. Thank you.
Hi, Have you sent the email in more generic way or specific to your application. I am also gonna send an email..

Email of Immigration Minister : minister@cic.gc.ca
Did you get the ecopr yet? I am also waiting since 23 December, nothing yet!
I am assuming you are referring to only Inland candidates? And could you share a sample format / template of your email?

Dear Minister Mendicino,
My name is [NAME]. I’m writing to you as an Express Entry (Federal Skilled Worker) applicant for Permanent Residence here in Canada. My family and I have been residing in [CITY] on a Temporary Resident Visa (TRV). I was invited to work for [ACTIVITY]. During that initial period, we decided to stay in Canada for the long term and applied for a Permanent Residence to secure our status in the country.
However, our experience with CIC has let us down, and I want to shed some light on the current situation with the applicants like me who’ve submitted their applications from Jan-Mar 2020. We’ve been patiently waiting for the immigration officers to go through our applications, but it’s been silent for more than nine months now. We haven’t received an update of any sort either. However, we’ve got to see applicants from July to September get their files processed while we continue to stay in the immigration limbo. With everything that has been going on worldwide, we’re stressed due to our temporary status. [SITUATION] and our TRV will expire this Summer. We, of course, would like to get a response before the due date. That way, we could prepare ourselves for a possible departure if our application would be refused or not processed at that time.
Thank you for your understanding and the work you do.
Sincerely,
[NAME]

Change things here and there of course. Cheers, I hope this helps.

I confirmed my address and uploaded my photos to the Portal on December 4 and still waiting. Zero updates since then.
This is ridiculous.
Hello! I ordered them online via GCMSnotes.com. I ordered in October 2020 but on day 29 I got a notification that it would be extended by 60 days, to receive them January 11th which I did.
