Hi guys - I am also a primary inland applicant with outland dependent. I thought I'll share my timeline:

No updates since then.

Hi guys - did anyone of you have the group assigned in GCMS "CN COVID Pace"?

I ask because this group might be put on hold for processing:
https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/copr-this-week.706457/post-9187247

Trying to understand if this is different from COVID split group? And if the outland dependents are impacted?
I think these two groups are different: COVID split group for (inland) applications with outland dependents and CN COVID Pace to slow down processing for applications (both inland and outland) based on certain parameters.

In this forum, I have seen single inland applicants being assigned to CN COVID Pace (will try to add links to those threads).

Also, it could be possible that applications with COVID split group are also assigned to Covid Pace by default. Just a speculation, so please correct me if this is wrong.

@abhishek93 - makes sense, thanks for your response.

I see you are in both groups. Is the CN COVID PACE assigned to all applications with outland dependents? Have you seen anyone here with that group getting COPR?

I ordered my GCMS from IRCC and CBSA & I should be getting a response in the next week or so. I should know my groups then.

I am not sure if we could generalize it based on my application alone; inputs from others in this thread could help figure out if that's the case. I believe there's at least one person who got the COPR (https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/is-anyone-received-copr-under-cn-covid-group.718781/).

Sounds great! Please keep us posted on any updates.

Thanks - I checked the thread and the applicant who got the COPR with 'CN COVID PACE' had moved to Canada and was not outland anymore. Also, the applicant was alone and had no dependent.

Even in this thread - there is only one person who got the CORP with outland dependent but the dependent was a child.

IRCC may put an application on hold even after approval for outland people:
