the status has been changed to

Not sure what that means but it might be a a good news as this is a PO box.
did you try callign CIC to see if they've received it. Usually they are able to see it if the package has been opened and details entered in their system.
Looks like CIC agrees with me and sent a reminder to allExcellent reminder to all from @bdidol. Even if I was the last minute types, I wouldn't send any later than 25th June...
I bet one could generalize that these people (who will send applications next week) are the ones who fill gas when the needle hits or even goes past "E"...
Yes. I received it today though I sent my application on June 4. Should I worry about it? Is there a phone # I can contact to confirm that they received it? Canada Post shows it was delivered and they provided a signature of the recipient.
Added:
I guess I should not worry about it and won't create an increased volume of CIC calls

I didn't get any... I wonder if they sent to all or just to those who haven't sent it as yetLooks like CIC agrees with me and sent a reminder to all
Everyone will get it...and it will probably go to the same order they sent the first email.

I will try to call them tomorrow if no more updates on Canada Post.

A bunch of people will start calling CIC now, " I sent my application on such and such date, why did you send me a reminder" etc. I bet, a few will even resend the whole package...

Folks, has anyone been able to link their paper application to online account? I have tried multiple combinations yet still can't figure it out. I am the sponsor and I am sponsoring my parents. Anyone who was able to successfully do so, please let me know. Canada post shows my application as having been delivered in late May. Please help.

Hello all, I have received an invitation to file for my grandparent (mom's mother). I have completed most the forms and am stuck at the sporting documentation proving the relationship between sponsor (myself) and applicant (my grandmother)...
...issue is my mother's birth certificate doesn't have her mother's name printed. Apparently, it has a note on her birth certificate saying that any birth certificate issues before 1965 does not have mother's name?? nonetheless, it has her father's name (which is besides the point as he has passed away some time ago).. As part of the supporting requirement, I need to provide my birth cert (that shows my mother's name) and my mother's birth cert (that shows her mother's name - which it doesn't).. So as an alternative, to substantiate the relationship, can I put my mother's passport (Indian) that shows her both mother and father's name and copy of my grandmother's passport that shows her name and her husband's name. And join the dots that way, explaining in a letter? Below is what I have drafted:
Proof of Principal application’s relationship to Sponsor
Although I have provided the necessary documentation required to prove the relationship between myself and my grandmother (i.e. Birth certificate of myself and my mother) – Birth certificates that were issued in the Indian province of my mother did not include mother’s names had they were issued prior to year 1965.
As an alternative, to substantiate the relationship, I have here by provided:
(a) My birth certificate that shows my mother’s name - proving relationship between myself and my mother
(b) Copy of my Mother’s passport that shows both her parents, mother’s (my grandmother) and her father’s (my grandfather) full names.
(c) Copy of my Grandmother’s passport that shows her full name and her husband’s (my grandfather) full name, both matching with my mother parents’ names on her passport (b).

I feel like instead of sending reminder emails to 20k + people to submit file they should focus on sending Aor and updating ecas. People who got invitations who are genuine enough they will submit it no matter what.
This is what I was thinking as well. They want to know my entire family size when they come here. So 3 of us plus my parents and her parents = 7.
I think I should err on the side of caution and consider 7.
