This is part of the unique value-added proposition of some reps: they recommend you do unnecessary things that create delays, while implying that they know better and have secret knowledge.
Edit: This is a buyer beware post by me and as armoured says below not an indication of a malpractice by the OP's representative.

No matter what the representative does you are ultimately responsible.

Delays they may cause by not understanding the process as with OP are not the responsibility of IRCC.

Chose wisely

One of the Most frequently seen line in judgements

Be careful who you hire!!!

*An error or misrepresentation made by the travel agent does not bar the application of paragraph 40(1)(a) of the IRPA (Cao v Canada (Citizenship and Immigration), 2010 FC 450 at para 31).

[27] It is unfortunate that the consequence of this misrepresentation is a five year ban on admissibility, but the Applicant failed in her duty of candour. The Officer’s decision was reasonable.*
To be fair, recommending a needless upfront medical is less of an outright screwup [outright malpractice!] than the (apparently not that uncommon) counsel to misrepresent.

Hi everyone, I just checked the new online tracker and I got the following update under the sponsor profile (which i never heard of for other applicants)

Eligibility activity status updated
New update
Eligibility


Eligibility status has been updated to In progress

Does anyone know what that means exactly and how long does this process take until they approve the sponsor? Thanks

Hello,

What does “Date submitted” in the IRCC secure account mean? It is not date received or AOR.
another thing is that, even though I have received my AOR more than a month ago, my application is not showing In ecas and I can not register in the online application tracker. It is not sending me verification code to my email. Any one had the same issue?

Thanks

I am so frustrated.

July 2020 applicant. Eligibility, Biometrics and Medical passed in May 2021. Background check HAS NOT started. Medical expired in April 2022 with no notice to renew. Address is constantly being changed on IRCC and the application keeps getting linked to another account. We have no clue what is going on and why it keeps happening (address has been changed all over Canada x5) but every time we call they just say it’s a “glitch”. We know of many people who this has had happened to as well. Why isn’t it being talked about? My application has not progressed since May 2021 with no update or help from IRCC when I try to call in.

Hello Guys, Just a quick question. Your help would be appreciated. My sponser mailed me the forms today to canada after signing them but he forgot to sign one form. Can he sign and email it to me so that I can print it or it has to be signed without scanning only? Your help is appreciated. Thank you

Hello everyone,
I’m wondering if there’s someone in the same boat as me? We got the pre-arrival letter on April 30th and since then there have been sooo many ghost updates in the PR tracker. Everything else in the tracker shows ‘Completed’. Any idea when the PPR can be sent? There’s no COPR number updated in the account as well.
 

I will
