Maybe you should try linking your paper application to your online account.

After linking, you would want to see what the 'Background check' status says. Maybe that's causing the delay

You must fill all fields exactly as per your application form, do not leave any blank spaces, no difference in spellings, etc.

Alternatively, you can send a Case Specific Enquiry/IRCC webform + an email to your local visa office to request for an expedited decision. They will inform you if your application is at the background checks stage

Trust me I did.. everything over and over again, it be because it’s overseas and the office...

I sent in the passport with my application 3 weeks ago, complete silence about the application , only thing I got was a tracking number from VAC office.

Today I got an email from VAC that they received the passport back from the embassy. Process is done, I just don’t get why the embassy won’t send an email pro tell you if they rejected or accepted

You would have known the decision if you had been able to link your application. IRCC does not send emails for approval/refusals for paper submissions. Anyways

Do collect your passport from VAC. Hopefully, you have been issued the TRV

@Bryanna Would linking up the paper application with the online CIC website do any impact ( may be a silly question but still..)?
I have submitted the application via an agent , who gets all the notification, if i link it online, would he be not getting notifications?

No impact. But I guess your agent might have already linked your application to his account and you can't link same application to multiple accounts.
