Just received stamped passports back today. Submitted to VFS on August 16 and they dispatched to IRCC on August 17.
I sent packages individually (family of 3 so 3 packages), was strange to me too but I guess that’s how they work. Got tracking IDs for each and all got processed together and sent back same at same time.Congratulations!
Mine reached IRCC on 5 Aug but no news yet.
May I ask if you applied as a couple?
Did you get two tracking IDs for your passports?
I don't quite understand why VFS asked me to send my and my wife's passports separately and then sent out passports to IRCC separately. A bit counterintuitive. I thought that may have slowed down the progress.
Have you received your passport or any update from IRCC?Yes.
An update from me:Hi all,
My wife and I are applying for PR/EE.
Submitted to London VFS: 3 Aug 2022
Passports arrived at IRCC: 5 Aug 2022
Heard nothing since. This is the 9th week.
(I submitted a webform and an email to LDNIMMIGRATION @ international.gc.ca on 7 Sept - I naively thought the processing time is 4 weeks as stated on the PPR letter.
Heard nothing back ofc.)
Has anyone been able to reach IRCC to get an update?

I raised two webform and emailed Ircc London (once) and VFS (lots of times) and followed up with a call to VFS, not sure those had any effect though. Might just have been a coincidence.
woooow congratulations. Has the Copt updated in your account yet?An update from me:
This morning (20 Oct) I received an email saying "The decision envelope for your application, tracking ID xxx has been dispatched from the IRCC Office, to the Canada Visa Application Centre in Embassy CVO. "
This is my 11th week.
Thank you.woooow congratulations. Has the Copt updated in your account yet?
Did you send a webform before this? I don't want to keep chasing them but also not sure whether sending webform will help speed up the processThank you.
Yes I logged into my account just now and can see "final decision" / counterfoil details.
Although I thought I would get an email for such a major update LOL...but I didn't.
From week 5 onwards,Did you send a webform before this? I don't want to keep chasing them but also not sure whether sending webform will help speed up the process
Congrats ! I am hoping mine comes soon too . Reached IRCC on 31 Aug . I agree that mailing them speeds nothing . I mailed them more than 5 times last month.From week 5 onwards,
Sent 3-4 emails to LDNIMMIGRATION @ international.gc.ca (never received any replies)
Raised 2 webforms (never received any replies)
Emailed VFS 3 times (they told me that the passports are with IRCC, nothing else)
called/web chatted with VFS once (same as above).
My gut feeling is that you just have to wait it out. These communications didn't do anything...
Congratulations!!! All the bestAn update from me:

May I ask if your dependents also have stickers (counterfoil) attached to their passports?I sent packages individually (family of 3 so 3 packages), was strange to me too but I guess that’s how they work. Got tracking IDs for each and all got processed together and sent back same at same time.
