COPR: March 10th 2021
Photos sent via Canada post: March 23rd.
Photos delivered to CIC: March 25th.
I tried linking my application to my CIC account but they say application not found. Tried with UCI and family name.
anyone in the same boat?
My timeline is exactly the same as yours. you need to call IRCC and see how you can link the application. While you are on the call you can also ask them if your photo has been sent to production or not.

Hi you guys mentioned about GU after mailing photos, but for me there's no any instructions for actions like"link application" or "update profile", what I got all is just a email of COPR and asking me for mailing photos. Anyone same?

Hi, linking PR card application is not mandatory. You can just follow the instructions from your COPR letter like sending them a photo and waiting. I think nobody received any specific instructions about linking PR card applications. It is just happened that somebody had found that it is possible and many people here started to link their applications. I linked my application as well. The only value in it that you can see they are doing something about your PR card and finally mail it, before you receive it in your mailbox.

COPR: February 4th, 2021
Photos submitted online on the PR portal: January 5th, 2021
Photos are still in review with IRCC

I tried to reach out to them multiple times. Here's a typical response.
"Applications received in March 2021 are now in process.
We are unable to provide an approximate timeline of the production and distribution of the cards."

Is this normal? Any suggestions?

Looks like not normal. Have you received a portal invitation and then eCOPR? Usually those who were lucky to receive portal invitations get cards quickly. The vast majority of people, who wait here mailed physical photos to Etobicoke and these people wait for about 5 months to get the card.
I would advise you to call IRCC and check the status of your PR card application. IRCC webforms have proven to be often useless.
