It it not strange at all. Very normal.

It is not a strange mail. Many people have received such letters. People had been waiting for years,some have changed their minds after an agonising long wait and frustation. So its an opportunity for those who are no more interested or those who have lost their interest in Canadian immigration to have their money returned to them.

The objective is to close action on such applicatons and have a shorter waiting time for those who are still keen to be considered for immigration

Each letter received must be acknowledged by you. Read the letter and do what has been asked to do. Silence can be construed as non compliance.
