Yes if they need a payment the situation will be different but in my case i'v paid all fees in advance and got decision made so maybe they will send me some updates regarding submitting passport soon.It's a reasonable solution but we cannot do that until they tell us to do so. Because i think their is a kind of payment should be made to VAC. I'M NOT SURE
I think we will hear new updates when Canada allow international flights otherwise thing will be unpredictable
