Can anyone guide me on how to link my application online? I created a account to apply for work permit renewal and want to link with my PR application so I can track. Thanks

Yes I did get the letter of Acknowledgement on Dec 06,2023 that they received my application on August 31st. But they said it was only temporary the XG letter. The next thing I’m seeing is this request of biometrics, saying I should submit before Feb 07,2024.
so does this means they started Processing my file?
when did they request biometrics from you? what date

They might not provide you with the permanent application number, the next letter u might receive is sending you for biometrics too. Cox this new letter came with the application number G, which means they already started processing the file.

Thanks! Also do we need to pay for biometrics or is it covered? Appreciate your help :)

I also applied Feb 2023. Nothing so far but the portal changed to include a grey-out view and delete.
If you have the delete option, it means you haven't sent in the end. In online programs like this.
Make sure everything is submitted correctly.
And I should mention that the profile will no longer work for you after applying.
All communication with applicants is done via email and webform or post.
