AOR: Oct 5th

No updated last night,

This morning around 9am, I just logged in without any email notice. I found my application is updated.
No MEP but BG status has changed from NA to "Your application is in progress. We will send you a message when we start your background check."
So it was IP1.
Then I refreshed my browser in 10 minutes and I saw MEP and BG status is now "We are processing your background check. we will send you a message if we need more information." which looks IP2.

So many changes happened to my application in this morning. No email received yet though.
This gives us some hope

Hello All,

What is the estimated processing time for Pakistani applicants now a days?
I have heard people getting express entry in 30-40 days, is this correct ?
Supposedly it is the same timeline for everyone, 6 months in average. Although of course there are some lucky ones who get PR in 3 months:)

Hi Nessa

Currently people with AOR 3rd or 04th October have started getting their mEP update...Mine is AOR 06/Oct... expecting it to be by 07/Nov..
Did you receive MEP on nov 2? Some people with AOR 6 did.
I have same AOR date, but still waiting... trying to be patient LOL. Maybe on Monday 5 or Tuesday 6. I hope so. :)

If it's any consolation, I've gathered that the R10 completeness check is carried out after AOR irrespective of whether your medicals has been passed or not. While passing medicals will trigger the receipt of bio-metrics collection letter, it won't stop IRCC commencing your background check either. I got this information from other forums.

Hi, guys!
I have very interesting situation:
AOR date: October 25.
Meds: upfront, I'm totally ok but wife needs some extra tuberculosis analysis. It's a common practice for applicants from Ukraine. It will take around 2 month.
Current profile status:
Review of eligibility: We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements.
Review of medical results: You do not need a medical exam. We will send you a message if this changes.
Review of additional documents: We do not need additional documents.
Interview: You do not need an interview. We will send you a message if this changes.
Biometrics: We do not need your fingerprints. We will send you a message if this changes.
Background check: We are processing your background check. We will send you a message if we need more information.
Final decision: Your application is in progress. We will send you a message once the final decision has been made.

So, I wont get MEP for one and a half month but my Background check looks like IP2.
What is going on? :)

I had the same screen as you mentioned above soon after I got AOR (after 1 min of submission) therefore I believe this is normal.
In my view, after seeing this forum I noticed that some people have different wording for the same stages on their profile page and we are assuming IP1 & IP2 whereas, its not confirmed by anyone from CIC.
Its good to have positive thoughts as its not hurting anyone but to be realistic background will start after Med passed and R10 is done. Which is on avg 2 to 3 months from AOR.

These are only my views so you can ignore if you do not like.
Anyone want to correct me or add please do so.

I'm interested in all points of view. Tnx!
But I go through FSW-Outland and you through PNP NS. Maybe CIC has some difference in procedures for FSW and PNP.

I am also FSW-Outland and my screenshot was exactly the same when I received AOR and still is. I am actually interested in seeing the changes that will occur when I get MEP update and Bio-metric Collection Letter.

I'm intrested too but I'll have to wait for MEP till December because of extra analysis, they will take 2 month. I hope it will not effect on profile review time.
