This ia silly q’s.. is the landing required to all applicant? I am PNP inland applicant ?
Yes, every one must complete landing formalities either they are in or coming from else where to canada
No, it is not required for an inland applicant. Landing ( going to the border) is just a quicker way to activate your PR. Alternatively you can remain in canada and schedule for an interview at an IRCC office to activate your PR. But you need to pick either one to activate your PR status, it doesn't activate itself automatically.

I went to my local Canada Post, and the guy over there informed me that CIC-Ottawa sends all passports for the day at 6 P.M. Ottawa time.

I wouldn't be concerned if I didn't have an international flight leaving this weekend. If they don't send it today, I'm more or less screwed and will have to cancel my flight on Sunday morning and change travel plans, etc. It sucks that I'm in this situation even though I applied at least 25 days before my travel date.

I have tried contacting CIC by every channel possible - WebForm, email, phone - but haven't been able to get a "human" response.
It's 6.48PM Ottawa time, no update for the tracker. I guess I'll have to change my travel plan as well.

Hi guys

I did mistake in sending my passport to Ottawa. I sent it at wrong address which is applicable for those having mailing address in US. But I have Canadian mailing address. Can you guys suggest me what can I do now? I already gave them an email but no response yet. I am worried about that.
Can anyone help me ?

Hi Prabh,
A friend of mine did the same thing. He gave CIC a call to see what should be done. Fortunately, it was not an issue. He got his passport back in a week.
As for this, I dont think its a huge issue but if you are concerned, you can contact CIC or leave them an e-mail explaining your situation.

I got an email response about 2 hours ago stating they have sent my passport today. Around the same time as the email, I was able to get through to an agent on their phone line, and the agent said the same thing.

However, I am still not able to track it on the system. But at least I'm more hopeful than before. I would say, you send an email immediately with your application number in the subject line and the words URGENT PROCESSING REQUESTED. Provide your full name, date of birth, UCI, visa category, reason for expediting. Good luck!

May I know what's 'Counterfoil number' ? and where do you see it if we don;t have passport returned ?
You will see this on your MyCIC login - click on the status of your application.
