If it was for PR, you can check the status in GCKey. If the counterfoil number is generated, you are all good.

I think you are just worrying too much. It takes 7-8 days to get your passport stamped.

Copying and pasting what I wrote in another post

PPR Means Acceptance.

If they have issued PPR, in other words, this is Permanent Resident Visa Issuance, NDVO won't deny you.

Yes you could be falling under few scenarios

You can be denied entry at the border by the immigration officer.
Even after entering Canada, your residency status can be canceled.
Canada can even withdraw citizenship after granting it.

I don't think any of us who skilled migrants do any illegal stuff so calm down!

To use pre-arrival services
To access these free in-person and online services, you must be outside Canada, and you must have one of the following documents:

An IRCC invitation letter to obtain pre-arrival services,
A Confirmation of Permanent Residence (COPR) letter,
A passport request letter that indicates Permanent Resident visa issuance,
An IRCC request that an applicant for permanent residence complete medicals,
A Single Entry Permanent Resident Visa, or
A Permanent Resident Visa pick up notification letter
These services are for Permanent Resident applicants only. Temporary Residents are not eligible for the services.

Lately people have been trolling with some half/wrong information, I'll say trust the official source
I read a lot on this forum. Someone can involuntarily make a mistake in the application form and it counts as misrepresentation. If it comes to the attention of the visa officer during stamping process, you can still receive a procedural fairness letter and be banned afterwards. I don’t try to scare anyone but that’s what I learned. I’m also scared.

Hi. I have submitted my passport on July 15 after I got the passport request letter from IRCC for my work permit. As of July 17 my status in VFS tracking system shows:
Your application, tracking ID No........ has been received and is under process at the IRCC Office on 2024/07/17

But I have not received any acknowledgment from IRCC itself that my passport has been received by them. There is no update in status also in my online IRCC account. Is this normal?

How many days does it usually take for passport stamping by IRCC from India.

Status updates are provided by VFS and not IRCC. You will not get any messages from IRCC. Once your passport has been stamped and received by VFS, you will get the next update message.

Thank you so much for the info.
And how many days does it take at most for IRCC to stamp the passport. It's been more than week and I am a little worried.
