23 or 24 April depending on which timezone you are looking at. If you have been stuck without update on your screen, I really recommend giving them a phone call and being nice. What they see on their screen is different to what we see on ours. They straightforward told me "ya on Eligibility you have been recommended you as "Passed" and are waiting for the security check" I was so happy I cried on the phone, so he was also quite happy to have helped giving me further info.

He also confirmed what people have known for a long time. Some will only update once a PPR or trouble comes, some will update periodically. So just answer nicely if asked like "you know it's still within the time frame, right?" DO NOT CHALLENGE DIRECTLY by going "it's my right, bla bla". Instead be nice and say "Yes, but I am aware that some may get updated less and less, we just want to prepare for anything". You need them more than they need you. Basically you want to prepare some bullet points that ask them to tell you what's on their screen and not to imply they need to reveal everything. Also, probably don't bother with terms like IP1, IP2, or anything. Just make it conversational.

Edit: I think I recalled you from the IELTS thread so it may not apply to you, but sometimes our language barrier makes us sound like we are bossing them around. Also asking technical questions may make them feel uncomfortable. Make it flow.

Did they also tell since when is your BGC/Security check ongoing?

Seems there is a mass IP2 movement for 30 April AOR. @Toronto2018 and @DJSHO have seen such movement. I feel just left out......26 April AOR since in IP1 (though it doesn't necessarily matter, but it helps calm the anxiety).
@Toronto2018 and @DJSHO do you guys know your VO?

Hi, when did you get the notification? Email or update in the profile? What is your VO?

Mine is Ottawa based on the call I had with the customer center a day before IP2 change.

PPR!! PPR!! PPR!! ))))))))))))) I still can't believe it I received the email around 3:00 am (Tunis time) on July 28th but I've been experiencing issues with my email during the week-end, I've received my emails all at once a few minutes ago and among them was the PPR )))))))))

Here's my timeline:

AOR: April 30, 2018
MEP/IP1: May 4, 2018
IP2: July 27, 2018
PPR: July 28, 2018

I am guessing the VO is in a timezone that is your Saturday and their end of Friday? But in the end whatever it is, it's PPR and that's all the matters. Enjoy and relax. The atrocious waiting is over.
Do let us know, if you have time, the post processing of once you get the PPR.

The Canadian embassy in Tunis. We'll be able to pick up our passports after 5 business days. I'm glad we don't have to mail them to some other country, especially that the Embassy is at a 5 min walk from where my husband works.
