If you are calling from pakistan, it won't work. You can only reach cic call center via canadian telecommunication.
You can use Gmail to call from outside Canada for free or freephoneline.ca as well.

My timeline is similar to yours, i applied one week ahead of you.

I called the call center but no help, the guys said your file is at CHC center which was mentioned on the letter or in the email, so dont know where my file is.

Why wont they ::)? When you call it routes you as a north American number 740-760-xxxx. So it is not any different then calling from your cellphone in Canada.

I did
And your "government were talking about here. They know all these little tricks" doesnt make sense. Its VOIP routing we are talking about here, this would only be true if they are screening calls from INSIDE of north America.

If anyone has an android phone, they can search for an app called Fongo. It gives you a free Canadian number that you can make and receive calls on. If anyone outside Canada need a Canadian number for free do the following:

Just google "fongo.apk" [you cant download it from play store if you are outside Canada]
Download the .apk file, copy it on your android phone.
Install it.
Then go to fongo.com, create an account using your email address.
Log in on your phone with the account that you just created.
And voila! you have a free Canadian number to call people and your beloved CHC anytime from your cellphone on wifi/data.

I am about to send the application, just need you guys advise. I have made 3 envelopes and all documents in order of Checklist.

Sponsor Form
Sponsored From
Supporting documents (sub form Photos of wedding and on different occasion)

Now the Police clearance, Medical proof and immigration photos are the end of the list. I am a little hesitant to put these important document with supporting document and it get mixed up.

Can I put them with Sponsored Form envelope ?

What you guys did when you sent yours ?

Thanks :)
