Hello, I doubt it was Immigration. I think they would have asked more questions than that.
More than likely a survey. Your husband probably did'nt meet the survey guidelines . I get that type of survey sometimes too, ask a couple questions then say they are done.They are looking to survey certain types of people.
They did'nt say who they were doing inquiry for?

HORRAY!!! Finally some progress!

This is in reference to your application for permanent residence in Canada as a member of the family class. We have now completed the initial assessment of your application, and expect to finalize your application without a personal interview. While an interview does not appear necessary at this time, we reserve the right to call you to an interview, should this become necessary at some future stage in processing.

This should answer some of your questions.
I’m a new permanent resident of Canada. Do I need to apply for a PR card?

No, we will mail your permanent resident card (PR card) to you when you arrive in Canada.

However, if you did not provide your Canadian mailing address when you became a permanent resident, you have to send us your Canadian address using our online tool within 180 days of the day you become a permanent resident.

If you did not provide your Canadian mailing address when you became a permanent resident and you do not send us your address within 180 days, the PR card will be cancelled and you will have to apply for one.

You will get your card within four to six weeks of becoming a permanent resident if you provided your mailing address when you became a permanent resident, or within four to six weeks of us getting your address if you provided an address using our online tool.

If you did not get your PR card within six weeks of giving us your Canadian address, please tell us that you did not get your PR card.

Yay! We received our passport request today! I am so excited!

Seems CPP-Ottawa is rushing through the August applications because several people have received passport requests recently.

I hope everybody still waiting gets good news soon.
