I just got a call from VFS requesting I make payment for the transfer of my passport.

They usually send an email not a call, did you get an email too?
Hello. I hope you’re all doing good. I’m wondering if anyone else is in my boat.
VFS tracker has been saying passport is ready for dispatch at CVAC since 15th of January, 2021. But each time I chat with vfs, they keep telling me the passport is in transit.
The waiting is really exhausting. Is anyone experiencing something similar?

I also got an email from Hong Kong office today conforming that they have part of my file and are reviewing same. Then I checked my cic account, didn't get the regular "profile/application updated", but I clicked to check the progress anyway. The "Review of Additional Document" part changed from "Not Applicable" to "27th January, 2021 we are reviewing your additional documents."
What additional documents could they be reviewing? Did you recently send them a document?
I uploaded schedule 4 form on 19th November, 2020 through my CIC account.
About Hong Kong: I emailed them about 2 weeks ago (after someone mentioned here that they saw in their notes that their file was moved to Hong Kong) to inquire if they had my files, and also to know what stage my application is at the moment.
I guess that's their response to my enquiry.

It made no mention of landing by new PRs...
According to a spokesperson for the border agency, officers have turned away a total of 30,475 foreign nationals arriving from the U.S. via air and land between March 22, 2020, and Jan. 6, 2021.
In addition, 756 foreign nationals attempting to enter after arriving by air from countries other than the U.S. were also turned away at the border.
Of those attempting to enter Canada, 30 per cent cited tourism and sightseeing as the reason, while 11 per cent cited recreation and five per cent cited non-essential shopping.
The majority — 54 per cent — cited “other” as their reason, but CBSA would not clarify what that meant other than to say it was activities not captured in the other three categories.

Yeah but they disclosed the 54% as "others" meaning they were likely not temporary residents or stated reasons such as landing, reuniting with family or whatever else they might have said
It looks like its really up to how the CBSA officer is feeling that moment at this point.
