PR cards do not come from IRCC but Canadian Bank Note Company (on MyMail at least)

Looks a bit fishy. Are you sure this is a genuine IRCC message?

There will be a date next to final decision

If it makes you feel better you can reply again. Realistically, it won't do anything

Sydney is just a slow office

That's fine. Then you can apply for spousal open work permit for your girlfriend (with all the proofs of your cohabitation) and a TRV for your baby.

Are you married or common-law? This is a pre-requisite for getting a spousal open work permit for your partner. You can also get a TRV for your baby

Yes

After you get eCoPR you won't have implied status but be PR. Before you get eCoPR your situation will be the same as now. Bus is fine but you need to leave it before the border and cross by foot probably.

If you get eCoPR before or during your trip, you can enter Canada via US land border by private vehicle (easier option) or apply for PRTD (takes a bit longer but doable).

You'll probably get an email tomorrow, congrats

2-3 months

I got my request 3 weeks after biometrics

Yes

It's too late. You now have to wait to get PR and then you could sponsor them

If it exceeds processing time by 6 weeks you can consider doing a solemn declaration https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/application-forms-guides/solemn-declaration-lost-stolen-destroyed-never-received-permanent-resident-card.html

Yeah it can take longer to west coast. They send it from Sydney, NS. You can check other people's timelines in this thread

I did. But it also depends where you live. They should send it within 25-28 days, but then it can take up to 2 weeks to be delivered depending on your location

Don't submit your application before you get exactly 2 years, otherwise it will be rejected

Calling IRCC is useless because the phone agents cannot see your profile in the virtual landing office
