Hello everyone! I've been following this thread for a couple of weeks and now decided to register.
We sent our passports on March 13th and Ottawa received them on March 16th. Still waiting. We also are doing this through a representative so the only thing we can view online is "Decision Made". It's been like that for months. I don't even know if the "Approved" thing it's supposed to appear there or if it will simply stay the same until the end of times. We are a family of three and inland applicants... Wishing we all get good news soon!

hi, guys. we got PPR 8 March, submitted main inland applicant's passport to VO Ottawa and still no news. In our application three dependents outland. Just wondering, those who have their passports came back from Ottawa recently are you all inland with your dependents or may be you have similar situation - main applicant inland and dependents outland.

The reason I ask this is in CIC site quote: "Offices in the Centralized and Domestic Networks will continue to process permanent residence applications where the principal applicant is in Canada and has overseas dependants, taking into account the delays that may occur. The principal applicant should not be granted permanent residence if their overseas dependants cannot travel. Clients will be contacted to ascertain next steps once travel is possible again"

So, I suppose, the delay in our case is likely to be connected with this provision due to dependents residing outland. Your responses can help a lot to understand.

Thank you in advance:)

Hi, I just a small question to ask. Did you wrote your address in TO field of return envelope?
 
Look at all these lucky people out here lol.
Some of us are here like:oops:

The number of people reporting their status here and on the trackers are likely just a small % of the total number of people. There's a whole bunch of people waiting for 2+ months to get their approvals. Just be happy that they are processing applications at all right now. Besides, what's the rush to get your COPR? Unless you absolutely need your passport back for urgent travel, there's probably not a ton you can do right now anyway to affect your landing.

Hi,
I have the same dates as you. And still waiting to receive passports back.
Hope to receive it sooner. Feeling very anxious as there is no update in the CIC account too. File is still in "submitted" status.
