Need advice!

This is frustrating - I had submitted the PGP application online in Nov 2023. And in March 2023 received a letter asking for the financial proof form to be submitted again, which I did via the email address provided in the letter. In April I received the same letter again, again submitted via the email they mentioned in the new letter.
In June I received the same letter, this time they asked me to submit the form via the web form updating link:https://secure.cic.gc.ca/enquiries-renseignements/canada-case-cas-eng.aspx - which I did!

Today I have received the SAME letter with a warning this is the last attempt for me to submit the document! Honestly, I don't know what's wrong with their system - do they not receive the documents? What am I supposed to do? I called them but they said due to increased call volume we can't connect you to an agent! Suggestions please on how to proceed. Thanks a LOT!!
Hey! You’re probably not filling it right. Did you hand sign it?

For IMM5406, for both my parents siblings few of them never had an email address so I have inputted “unknown” as advised in the form. Will my parents still need to provide letter of explanation for this? Will the letters of explanation need to be signed by them or it can be word document?

I did hand sign - took a print out, signed it and sent the scanned copy. Their latest letter says update employment status and my last 3 submissions had the employment status updated too. I am currently unemployed, do you think they want to know if that changed? Technically that shouldn’t be a concern cause they check the last three years and the current year isn’t over so current status won’t hold for the entire year. I already am above the threshold with a recent job loss due to layoffs.

For passport submission, The letter says Step 1: changes in circumstances, if there is no change in circumstances do we need to include anything to inform there is no changes in circumstances?
