Nope, they did not reply to me. I called yesterday and the agent said wait until the borders get open. He said the IRCC won't send the PR confirmation email to all the applicants. It seems they have sent the PR confirmation email mostly to those they had interview and got canceled. Also, I think it depends on the CoPR expiry date. Mine is October.

Below the text from the letter,
I am pleased to advise you that your application for permanent residence in Canada is now
complete. Congratulations! You are now a permanent resident of Canada!
This letter constitutes an official document issued by the Department of Immigration, Refugees
and Citizenship Canada. You can provide a copy of this letter to prove that you are a
permanent resident of Canada and to apply for government benefits and services for which you
are eligible, until you receive your permanent resident card.
This letter does not replace the permanent resident card; you are still required to submit the
documentation to obtain your permanent resident card. If you have a Confirmation of
Permanent Residence (CoPR) document in-hand, please send it along with one photo that
meets our photo specifications to the address listed above. Please ensure that you write your
unique client identifier (UCI) and name on the back of the photo. If your address has
changed, please provide us with your current address.
If you do not have a (CoPR), please print a copy of this letter and send it to us along with one
photo that meets our photo specifications to the address listed above; we will produce your
permanent resident card once we receive it.
We realize that you may not be able to send this photo right now due to the Government of
Canada’s order to stay home during the COVID-19 situation. Please send this photo to us when
it will be possible as per your provincial and/or local authorities’ guidelines. In the meantime,
this letter will serve as proof of your permanent resident status in Canada. You can use this
letter for one year and it must be accompanied by a travel document or a
federal/provincial/territorial identity document. The permanent resident card is required after this
one-year period.
I have couple of questions for who submitted their COPR for PR cards,
1. They mentioned that, send COPR copy, which copy we need to send (IRCC copy with Photo, client copy with out photo or both)
2. They asked me to send one photo graph with specifications, right now shops are closed i can not send photos?
Do we need to wait until shops has been open because this document is valid until one year however, we can not re enter canada with this document if leave canada without PR card.

My COPR is also expiring around same time (Sept 21). I raise the webform but got the generic response. Could you please elaborate what you did, so I will do the same?
Hello, thanks a lot for sharing this information. Can you kindly help me with some additional information?
1. Did you book an in-person interview with IRCC?
2. If not, how did you persuade IRCC to issue your PR confirmation over email?
3. Was there any urgency / critical situation in your case, like CoPR expiry, passport expiry, work permit expiry etc.
my current situation:
Passports delivered to Ottawa: 13 March 2020
Passports with COPR received: 30th April 2020
Confirmation email Received: Not Yet
Thanks in advance for your help.
As i mentioned in the above post my COPR expiry is Sept 11, 2020. I thought mine will be delayed as I have sufficient time.
There was no ugency in my case, i sent casual email to Etobicoke office (CIC-Etobicoke-Landings@cic.gc.ca) asking for next steps.
They replied to my email saying that it will take some time for landing formalities due to COVID-19, it was generic message. All of sudden i recieved confirmation email.
