Hi BPK, i did my landing on 15th nov at toronto pearson airport. The officer never told anything regarding paper or online application.
They just took the address for the pr card to mailed at. Thats it.
On dec 23 I received request to re-submit photos. Which i did the very next day and the Nova scotia office received them on 30th dec. Since then i havent heard anything.
I did sucessfully link my application to cic profile thereafter and the status says “submitted”
My concern: did i/am i missing anything? Was i suppose to apply somewhere cuz i wasnt told any such thing.

Hello, as far as I understand, you haven't missed anything. since you are able to link the application, you can now wait for the status change. sometimes you may get an email about status change or you can simply check by logging in.

Hope you get your card soon.

Log in to your cic portal. Over there you’ll see “add an application”
Click on that and punch in your credentials (uci, application number, etc) and then click “find application”
After your application is located, you can link it to your existing cic profile. Hope this helps.
note: if it asks for your place of birth, write the EXACT way it is written on your PASSPORT; do not miss a single punctuation mark.

Hi
Any idea which month did CIC reach for photo resubmission ?
Mine received by them on Oct 25th 2022
 
I called they refuse to give dates anymore. I am contacting my MP and encourage others to do that as well. I think they are holding these applications as they are underpressure to reduce the backlog on main applications. Something is going on.
