Yes, stamping can be done anywhere for online applicants. When you receive your PPR, send it to the nearest VAC

Yes you can. A WES ECA is valid for five years from the date of issue. You can continue using it for future Express Entry profiles. IRCC was given a copy initially (possibly electronically) and they can verify it again if they want. You can attach your ECA to your application

Heard from others... they fix it by Tue, it goes down again by weekend. Don't bother, it just gives the time elapsed on a 6 month timeline, doesn't show the actual progress

Can they give that in written even if it is an email? Ask them. Then at least you'll have something to show at the border. It is my belief that the border officer will have an unshakable faith in the infallibility of the IRCC. The burden will be on you to prove the fact.

Yup, your passport will be stamped with a TRV once approved

Relax...you're still within the "PNP" timeline....generally takes about 40 days for PNP folks...don't know why. For all others about 30 days. You'll receive it

Does a "Confirmation of Online Application Transmission" appear in the messages section? It appears as a message with a clickable receipt number on it through which you can download a PDF receipt. If you have that that is your proof. Its like "Your payment receipt number is # X123456789"

For several days it has been "We have started processing applications received the week of August 12, 2020". Is it that there was an incredibly huge number of applications received during the week of Aug 12 :confused:;)

Correct, don't think that is necessary, stamping can be done anywhere for online applicants.

I think you'll have to submit your concern to customer service and select "Website issue" as the category. They'll suggest the next steps

It will, for sure. Keep the faith!

IP1 and IP2 are of no relevance now with newer rules requiring biometrics. That message will remain till you get COPR

Did you check the your account, was it flagged somewhere that the fee is pending? If you had the receipt, you could have uploaded it via the web form, if it showed up as pending.

However, they may be a "Place of Issue" field in your passport. If that is what is worrying you, you can use the web form and provide a letter of explanation

Nope. Canada cannot issue a Saudi passport. It was delivered in Canada, but issued by Saudi.

Then it is fine. It was issued by the country of Saudi Arabia

What is the country or country code mentioned in the actual passport?

Not inland ones, since you can easily demonstrate a reason for coming back such as job or your student status. In fact if you are not from a visa exempt country, then TRV is the only way you can come back after visiting your home country
