Guys, newbie question here... but how do you know which VO is processing your application? Can I assume mine is the one that sent the last doc request (
IRCC Etobicoke)? Or do you have to get application notes?
 
Has anyone received an actual card in the mail recently? I received my ecopr on July 5th, and my picture on a portal still says 'in review'. I know it takes up to 6 weeks, but still... my portal office is Montreal by the way

Yes got Portal 1 email yesterday and sent the information yesterday.
 
That's good. They're way more efficient than regular VO's

Good to know!! Let's see, for now it's like this:

Did not receive a Final Decision nor "Decision Made" - nothing changed at IRCC and PR tracker
