Hi! I have two questions. Do you find your local MP through here?: https://www.ourcommons.ca/Members
Secondly, what kind of information do you provide in your email? Name and application number?
Thanks!

Which Province MP you gonna connect? My file is in Sydney so is that going to work if I connect with nova Scotia MP or do I have to connect with someone from Mississauga which is my residential address
I called my local area MP from Brampton yesterday. They didn’t pick up the phone so I sent a detailed email and they called me back to confirm my situation.
I filled Intake form of her office and sent all the asked details. She said they will get back to me as soon as they hear from federal department.
My MP office was closed due to covid and not taking calls, they ask that constituents email them.
Feb 17 - Lawyer sent a brief note asking for help in getting a status update, and shared a couple of data points like name, application, address, delayed app and can't get answers from IRCC.
Feb 18 - reply back with standard blurb about COVID, some comments about what kind of applications can be expedited via webform direct to IRCC (medical, death, loss of employment etc) but none apply to me. Also said "if you want us to help ask IRCC for status, fill out this form" basic application facts like date/number etc and a reason for asking.
Feb 24 - sent them back what they asked for - we debated whether it was worth bothering and then decided to do it anyway. that's why it took a few days.
Feb 26 - MP office forwarded the answer they got from "the Information Centre for Members of Parliament and Senators "
Answer was basically the same as what you get from a IRCC webform (when they actually answer the question you asked) :
Date applied - already knew this
Date R10 achieved - already knew this from GCMS notes
Date eligibility was passed - already knew this from GCMS notes
Medical still in review - already knew this from portal (but it passed a week later)
Criminality + security are passed - already knew from calls/webforms/GCMS notes

I think it depends on whom you contact to.
Some doesn't care of "foreign nationals", some likes robots, answers like machines.
If you are lucky, you may get a true human being, true MP.
Same situation. Contacted my local MP. They were kind to get a case worker and they manage to get answers from IRCC within 24hrs or less. However, same response- COVID. She was kind to do 3 monthly follow ups for me but same COVID response.
I am a Foreign national, CEC Inland applicant (June 2020 AOR) with an Outland spouse and all alone in Canada (7months pregnant). This doesn't seem to move IRCC. I tried to get my mum to come in from the UK (doesn't need a visa) and this was refused. The office of the MP says they cant overturn the IRCC's decision (fair enough).
Its an emotional rollercoaster.

I have the same MP. I tried to contact them and their answer was to wait because everything is fine with the file and I have to get the PR soon. My file is more than 16 months now and they consider it normal. He told me to wait until the file will reach 18 months and then I can call them again. He is the worst MP in Canada.
