So today I received an email from IRCC confirming that the documents I provided suffice and asking for RCMP criminal record check. I replied that I already submitted it last week but attached it again just in case. A couple minutes later I checked my profile and saw Medical Pass! So I am hoping that they used my immigration medical exam that we did in 2017 when we applied to come to Canada.
I am happy that at least my application is moving forward and hoping for the best!
 
No ielts should be valid till the date IRCc received your application. Does not matter how long they take to finalize the application. I did ielts now almost 2 years has gone still in process of Pr . So don’t worry about that .

I agree and believe as you say but dear friend where is written in Canada immigration website rules or any written communication from them? if you have please share that website page link.
 
IRCC is now and then running into issues struggling to keep the portal up and running. Adds to the "wait" frustration that applicants are subjected to by the same office. Irony is that it keeps on issuing ITA on top of PNP.
