You can go for “mandamus “
https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/use-of-mandamus.35955/

If don’t mind can you share your country of nationality.

Use Twitter account for tweeting your problem and tag to Immigration
Minister & Jenny Kwan (Vancover NDP MP). I have seen her videos in the YouTube regarding delayed iranian PR applicants.
Pakistan and all my other Pakistani friends have got the PR.
Its too early to go for mandamus right now. There are quite a few people waiting from 30 months.

background check in process. Medical passed in Jan 2018 and after that no updates whatsoever. My MP contacted IRCC and they replied that we cannot give anytime line and his file is still in progress.
I would check if you are under security screening, if you are at least knowing that can give you some peace of mind.

whats the reason for such a huge delay? Any addition of members ? Any ADR? 30 months? You should have got a response for this huge delay..
I said some applicants i know are waiting from 30 months not me. Mine will be 21 months at the end of July.

I do not know any reason at all, no addition. I am a single Inland applicant. In Canada from 6 years now, ddin't travel much either.

Just called CIC, they told me the file has been approved!! No news on Gckey account or ECAS. They will send me email soon about passport request. Finally!!!
Congratulations! I'm in a similar situation as you, I got Ghost Update, Decision Made about 4 weeks ago. I called two weeks ago and an officer told me I was approved but no PPR email yet, hopefully this week is the one because my current visa expires on September 3rd and I really don't want to give them any more money at this point. :(

I didn't try the automated call. I spoke to an actual officer and they told me "Congratulations, you've been approved but the processing time is at 19 months" so it might still take all that time for me to get the final email.

Today is actually my application's 18 month birthday. :(

I didn't for some reason. I got Ghost Update, Decision Made and had that call, hopefully it'll be either today or tomorrow later in the day, which seems that's when they send out large batches of PPR emails.
