I am on the same boat. I sent the web forms on March 1st but haven't herd back yet. I sent an email for follow up but no reply to either.
I called them and they told me to wait as they have large volume of applications. Person over the phone was not able to give me an ETA, he kept on repeating that I will get the payment link soon.

I also told him that I only have 30 days to submit my passport but he mentioned that it ok even if the 30 days deadline is missed, visa will be stamped on the passport without any issues.
Thanks
On which number you contacted with him?

I read on twitter that it has been extended to 90 days.
@legalfalcon If you can please confirm on this.

Hello,
Anyone booked the hotel in Toronto ? If someone knows, which one is cheapest for 2 people sharing the room.

Thanks
 
Thank you for the detailed post @robertp ! Is the process the same for TRV? My parents received the email for passport submission. The email had a link to CiC to check the process of sending passports. My parents would be sending their passports to the Bangalore VAC. Should the webform be filled up first? VFS : WebForm (mioot.com)
The form has a question "Did you enrol Biometrics for this application?" Would they anser Yes or No? The biometrics was already done last January. Should they start filling up the form and then go forward from there?
I also see that the process starts by emailing passportsubmission@vfshelpline.com. A little confused about how to start the process of passport submission. Can you please help?
Thanks a lot in advance!

hi i did that biometric in 2019. when i filled the form i said no and it works
 
Need urgent help guys!

I have submitted the passport submission form to VFS. VFS inform us that we have to make a payment via payment link they will send us using an Indian debit card. My parents do not know how to operate a computer and make online payments. My parents do have a SBI classic debit card. My question is: Can I use their SBI Classic Debit card details to make the payments on their behalf from here in Canada? Will the payment go through? or It has to be done from India?
it has to be indian credit or debit card as they asked me OTP for that i just paid fees for courier but you can also try overseas card may be it will work
 
I submitted web form for passport submission on February 26,2021 still waiting for payment link?

please anyone can help?

what to do next??

How much time it takes to get passport back from IRCC office? I have sent my passport from Bangalore on 27th February 2021, received 'Vfsglobal - Requested additional details' with tracking id mail on 5th March 2021. I did not receive any other mails after that? How many days will it take to receive back my passport?

Use the application tracking number given in the same email and track the progress on VFS global, Canada website, also keep checking your GC key portal, the moment the passport is stamped there will be an update there.
The AWB number you can use to track the courier after 24 hrs from when there is an update on VFS global website "saying your decision envelope has been handed over to Blue dart"

All the best !!
