Many applicants who applied in Dec & Jan did not receive the submission confirmation letter due to some technical issues at IRCC. However, they have resolved the issue from their end and started issuing the same from 4th Feb. Hopefully everybody will receive the AOR next week.

Yes this is what happened to us today. Got submission confirmation today but medical al;ready passed and eligibility review started beforehand.

Full timeline in sig.
 
Does, any Indian applicants who filed their application in Jan 2021 have their review started yet?
You are lucky. You applied in Jan 7 2021 and your medical is updated in Feb 17 means after 41days. I also applied on 29 Jan but my medical is not updated yet. Normal pattern what I am seeing is medical being updated in 40-50days. Hope your AIP would come fast.

There will be no AIP's for applications that are filed after Dec 15, 2020. So, it should be a normal process for us.
 
Hope receiving AIP instead of PPR is not a sign of refusal. When AIP itself says approval in principle, it should not be rejected on PPR stage.
