Send a webform and inform IRCC. IRCC will send you details for passport submission for you in Nigeria and for your spouse in Ottawa. Your spouse in Canada will not need to send the passport as currently the COPRs are being issued via email.
Also, do not worry about the time as they will extend the submission time. Also, you send an email to CPC Ottawa, they are faster then webform.

I just had a very unusual experience.
My AOR was 10th January, 2020 (FSW - PNP outland)...application still showing review of eligibility.
But here's the thing: My mum got called up twice by CIC Ghana today. She was on transit, it was very noisy so she couldn't make out what the caller was saying. Matter of fact, she even thought it was scammers.
When she got home and told me, I was surprised. First of all, there was nowhere I added her phone number in my application. So I also thought it was scam. I checked her received calls however, and also checked the cic official website...Lo and behold, it was the same number on the website!
She called back, it kept diverting to voicemail. So she eventually dropped a voice message and also sent them an email on the email address contained in the voicemail - which is same on the website by the way.
The puzzling thing now is that I don't know why they called her or how they got her phone number. I only included her in my application as family member (as my mother obviously)..but without her phone number.
The only reason I can think of right now as to why they called her is perhaps the GIFT DEED. She gifted me bulk of my PoF, and she notarized the gift deed. But even the documents only had her account numbers and the transaction history, no phone contact. Yes I did a double check to confirm this a while ago.
Did anybody here have the same experience? Why did they call? What could this mean?
I'm still waiting (hoping and praying) for them to call her back, or at least respond to her email so this unsettling curiosity in my head can ease off.
P.S. Below are the number they called with, and the email address provided by the voicemail. And they're exactly as on the website:
