Hello,
What about medical?
That means that IRCC is conducting background checks with CBSA and CSIS. The updates won’t be visible to you. Background Check has three steps. When one is passed, profile gets updated. People call it ghost update because you won’t see it. After three steps of Background Check are done, you’ll get portal request!
IRCC won’t give AORs or let people link applications. The only reason people get AOR is that their file is under process now and won’t be held unnecessarily unless there is a reason. Background Checks usually are the cause taking anywhere between a week to 6 months and over. Depending on the travel history and particular details, CBSA and CSIS can take a lot of time to do background checks. IRCC can’t proceed unless that is done first. Pretty sure that this person’s application isn’t just sitting around waiting to be processed. It’s actively under process and will be processed this years. IRCC tends to have a batch for AORs and then a batch for portal requests.
Yes, that's what makes it a 'ghost update.' The GU I received was without an email notification -- I simply went in to the main page of my account to check the status and then saw that 'submitted' had changed to 'profile updated'. When I clicked to go into the details of my TR to PR application and saw that nothing had actually changed (from the previous day), I realized that this was a GU. When I went back out to my main account page, the status was changed back to 'submitted'. It most likely means that someone was looking at or processing something about your file but not every action taken on IRCC's side of your account is necessarily significant enough to trigger a change to what we see on our side of our accounts.
Thank you Agrewal98. I agree and didn't mean to imply that IRCC would allow linking of accounts just to allow linking while not also initiating processing. For some applicants though, like me & many others, there is a fine distinction between getting a formal AOR (Acknowledgement of Receipt letter/document) from IRCC and simply 'discovering' that you have been provided with a formal Application Number by being able to link to your account using other details from your application (UCI, passport #, place of birth, etc.). I have assumed that IRCC has confirmed that my application is being processed by allowing me to link, sending a request for a new medical through my account, passing the medical, and stating on my account that they are processing my application, but they have never provided an actual AOR LETTER. By having only a formal Application Number and not a formal Acknowledgement of Receipt letter, do you think I should have cause for concern? Or are you equating the assignment of an Application Number (that is not a temporary application number) as being the same as getting a formal AOR Letter? Your thoughts are appreciated.
