When communicating with IRCC, it is important to clearly explain your situation and provide all relevant details. Otherwise, you may receive information that is not accurate.
After you submit the Web Form you will not receive a confirmation email. Usually, it takes IRCC 2 to 5 business days to respond.
Also, one can send an email to CPC Ottawa at CPC-CTD-Ottawa@cic.gc.ca, it usually is faster than a web form. Documents uploaded using the webform are not reflected in MyCIC account, only those uploaded through MyCIC can be viewed there.
