Finally received my passport. God Bless everyone!!! Looking forward to all of us getting our passport soon.
The police clearance was because I spent more than 5 months in another country.

I included a Police Clearance on my document but they requested anyway and I just submitted a fresh new Police Clearance.

Could not having a Canadian mailing address be an issue? The application allows addresses from 100+ countries. I moved to the USA temporarily and don’t currently have a Canadian address, but I have a valid PR and driver’s license with my previous Canadian address. I also uploaded documents like my passport and health card. BG passed, Notes show identification verification is passed, US police clearance passed

The GCMS notes also show my file was moved to further review for not having a Canadian address on file. What should be the next step—submit a web form explaining the situation, or ask them to use the address on my driver’s license? That address is still valid but was from a friend’s apartment where I used to live. Or wait for their updates?

Definitely submit a webform explaining the situation. Just proactively communicate with them. Give them proof of your canadian address and your new address. (Use your driver's license address for additional proof as well)

I submitted webforms on my own and added explanations and it was received quickly.
