inland PEQ applicant...applied on 1st November 2017. Had my medical 7+ months ago...It's my 17th month :(

I recently got my GCMS notes and my security location changed from "ready for PS- " to "PS- ". But this change was on 4th October 2018, about 5 months ago...and no update since then.

Why are they holding up most of the applications in final security stage? :(

I believe it's Paper Screening.
I'm in the same situation as yours in my GCMS and share almost the same calendar as you. Nothing changed...

Unfortunately I think it's also because of the recent Quebec laws to reduce intake from 33k last year to 21k for 2019 for permanent residents...so that will further slow down and increase processing times even more :(

can you apply through both QSW and express entry? has anyone done this?
