Does this VO start background check after medicals are received / passed? I passed mine on June 15 and have not seen my background check go go "in progress"

Thank you!

Our background check started quite soon after the file transfer. We used the old kit with the medical submitted upfront.

Based on my time line do you think I should get background check in progress sometime soon?
I really can't tell you but if I were you I would just relax. I know someone who got an email for her partner to do a visa pickup and the next day her BCG went to in progress, even though he will get DM at the visa pickup meeting. ECAS is not the most up to date and mycic has its own glitches. Just gotta trust in the process, everything will be fine :)

No, I don't think so, we just got an additional line that says "we started processing your application on xxxxx"
Hi Kcward7 my case they started processing my application for the Permanent residence on January 2017, but I have no Idea if they started processing my Background check . its been 8 months since they received my application and no news at alll.
