You know what? Today I checked my old email used to register my cic account and found that I got the PPR email!!!

I guess that's what the "updated" was for because I saw the "updated" a few hours before the email was sent to me. It is weird that they sent it to my old email address even though all previous notifications (like the AOR and ITA message notifications) were sent to my new email address. I guess if you get "updated" in your account, you may also want to check previous email address that you used for your cic account.
Hi,
Two days ago I received an update in my profile but did not receive any email notification and in reality there was no change in my profile status. You had mentioned that you received your PPR mail to your old email address. My WP in Canada was handled by my company lawyer and we CEC applicants have the same UCI number on WP as well as PR application. So is there any possibility for my PPR mail to go into my lawyers email id. My PR application is handled by me .but my WP was handled by my lawyer. This whole thing is freaking me out. If someone have any thoughts on this please share.

Many congratulations on your PPR!!!

Could you please let me know if PPR has been issued after first Ghost update or after the second?

What is Ghost update?
The question is, do you believe in ghost? Or do you know what a ghost is?

If your answer is yes, then that update is like a ghost. The status shows “Updated” but you could not see any update to your profile. Of course, you will only know there is no update if you are like one of us who stares at the CIC profile the whole day :)

Hahaha..
And I was anxious thinking I am so impatient. No I don't stare at my profile whole day. But can not resist seeing it once in a day.
Have faith mate.
The ghost will turn in fortunate things.

PS: I know the wait is killing. But there is no other way. I guess the whole process has slowed down for god know what reason.

The wait is excruciating. Even after you get the PPR, you’ll become more impatient waiting for your COPR and that “Approved” status :D

Thanks a lot! It was after the second one on April 4th. The first ghost update was in early March.

Did you create your own account when you applied for PR? Or is it the same account that your lawyer was using?

Long time ago I hired an agent for my study permit extension, but after that I created my own account (using my old email address) to apply for work permit and PR myself. So I believe the communication ties in with your CIC account and the original email address that you signed up the account with, not your UCI number.

I hope you created you own account but if not I don't think it is the end of the world. I think you can call Immigration Canada to see what stage your application is at as a first step, if you have been waiting for a long time. Based on their reply, you can explain to them your situation or call your lawyer if your PPR is issued but you do not get the email yourself.

Hope it helps.

Hi
No I created a new EE profile and got an ITA and submitted all my documents and currently IP2 stage. Well I also spoke to my office lawyers and they said they would forward me the emails in case if it comes to their mail id's.

Any idea on why my profile says it was updated but in reality their were no changes in my status and I also did not receive any email notification regarding status updates??

There are many cases of people that got the ghost update but still took a few days to get the PPR. I know it's hard, but try to stay calm.

Good to know that you have it figured out with your lawyer. I think the ghost update happens because someone open your files and/or transfer them between offices in the background. To be honest, only the ones who design the system know how exactly it works. But I believe that's at least a good sign and good news should be on the way.
