What you filled in UCI and application number ? How you made mentioned table in text file ?
UCI will be from the time that you became a PR. It remains the same on PRTD aplication as well. For application number even I am not sure. Please refer to this from the last page of this discussion.

I am also on same boat as you . Got an email from ircc yesterday and sent all details to VAC . Still waiting for response . Did you raise any ticket with IRCC on below issue.
Is your VFS - the Delhi VFS? because no other VFS is accepting passport even by courier IMO.

I have sent two separate emails to VAC. First one I had the table data in the email itself and attached the email from IRCC by copying it in a text file. My thought was that VAC only needs the application number from the PAssport Submission request. I got a response from VAC asking me to attach the "correct" Passport submission request letter so I sent a second email to them, this time I just copied the table data in a text file. I did not worry about the formatting much as I was the only applicant in my case. Also attached the email from IRCC in a PDF format.

Unfortunately I can not say if any of the above is the right method as I have not got a response yet from VAC or IRCC. Let us know if any of these (or any other method) works for you.

Wrote too soon. Got an email from VAC today asking to confirm on the details that I sent earlier and also gave the payment link for the Passport Submission service courier. The pickup date is altered to 9th Jan (I requested for 7th Jan). I will proceed today with the payment and passport submission. Unfortunately still do not know which format did they consider correct but I am assuming its the later.

I wonder why you did not convert the entire mail from IRCC into pdf and attached this pdf when corresponding with VFS.
Thanks,

I guess you must have received the "Proforma-2_Way_Courier" pdf from VFS. Can you please share what is the Application Number that we need to mention in point 10. I saw the proforma pdf here: https://visa.vfsglobal.com/ind/en/can/news/ircc-request-update

Also I guess point 9, Location (VAC) at which Biometrics were enrolled: , should not be relevant for us - the PRTD applicants.

Its home pickup by bluedart. You need to fill out two waiver forms send them in an envelope along with the passport.

This is what the email said.
____________________________________
Step 1: We request you to provide the below details as an attachment in a text (.txt) file
A copy of the Passport Submission request letter received from the High Commission of Canada- for each applicant.

Please provide the below mentioned details for each applicant requesting this service**Add a similar table if the number of applicants is more than 5
_____________________________________

From the wording it seemed that you should attach the email content in text file and provide the details in the reply email itself as it has a table ( cant copy a table in text file). But it does seem that my assumption was wrong.

About point 9 it should be "NA" if you have given biometrics in last 10 years. I gave it in 2015 when I became a PR. If you need to give biometrics then IRCC will let you know.

Yea, i guess all PRs must have already given biometrics during the PR process. I too became PR in 2015 and seems I do faintly remember providing that.

Can you please let me know when you sent email to IRCC, their response, when you responded VAC, and their response to send the payment link

I applied to IRCC on October 14th. Asked for an update on December 22nd and all responses from IRCC and VAC are the next day to my emails unless it is a public holiday since then.

The first response from VAC is automated where they ask for applicant details and copy of Passport submission letter.
