Me!
Take a look at my signature
They were for "criminality passed", "Additional Documents", and "security passed/ppr", respectively.
Yap, I said based on your profile. I just got one ghost update but my criminality is passed, ADR not applicable and security started 1 month ago!

I never recieved any automatic email about the progress of my WP application... That's interesting.
Do you mean the officeres who process the WP at IRCC are different than the ones who do the PR applications?
Yes, it is even possible that different departments are responsible for different applications like study permit, work permit, etc.

Congratulations on the BOWP. Definitely, it is a relief that you can have the health card.I didn't get the negative side though. The processing of BOWP is almost independent of processing of PR. So, no matter they process your BOWP or not, the SS is in progress.

You don't need to ask for the BOWP timeline. BOWP is processed almost on a FIFO base. as @rajahoomi application, they are currently working on the files that they received on Feb 14th. you can check the processing of BOWP here:
https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/check-processing-times.html
It always has a 2-3 week lag though. If you see the link, the last update was May the 5th and they were working on the files on Jan 26th. Using this link you can guesstimate when you are going to receive BOWP.
About the email. It is an automatic email that you will receive every month that there is no movement on your file. You are going to receive on May 26th as well. Since you applied 6 weeks after @rajahoomi, You are going to receive your BOWP in 6-7 weeks.
BOWP is always issued for one year or the expiry of the passport.
Thanks for detailed clarification @Mr_nobody and @rajahoomi .
one more question, when they finally approve the BOWP, what is the next step for printing the actual work permit, visiting a service Canada or point of entry?

They will mail it to you via regular post. You don't have to worry about that.
You have to go Service Canada, but to renew your SIN number

Hi Guys,
I just received my GCMS note after 68 days and I saw my eligibility is review required because of my working experience main duties and they haven't touched my file since november. So, my question is should I submit another letter without their request? I really appreciate any suggestions.

Sorry to hear that!
They may reject your case without requesting a new employment letter. So, YES; you should raise a CSE and upload a new letter asap! Please take it seriously!
