No One is screwed. Ofcourse MIDI has updated IRCC from their end to regarding the massive delays and bulk log for the CSQ issuance. However, when I received my "Accuse de reception" from MIDI, I updated through the webform to IRCC and wrote that "Here is my proof of submitting CSQ application with the given time by IRCC, but there is a delay from MIDI in issuance of CSQ which is beyond my control and therefore ia m unable to submit the CSQ within the given time and requested the extension",.... I received an email from my IRCC case officer after 10 days of webform submission and he granted me extension until sep 2nd week.. !!!
so, I received my CSQ in the first week of Sep and I submitted the CSQ through webform again to IRCC instead of waiting that MIDI will send it to the IRCC on their own pace. Once again within 10 days I received the conformation that "we have received your CSQ and it has forwarded to your case officer".
Guys! Govt institutions work on their own pace. I am sure MIDI is communicating everything to IRCC about the delay but a little misunderstanding can cause trouble to us (as applicant). we need to stay on the tail of our own file. and keep IRCC update of any delay of new information which they have asked for. Hope my answer helped!!!
