Its quite unusual not to receive a decision even after 3 weeks of receiving biometrics correspondence letter...
Have you checked your cic account for further messages?

Yes I have. Status shows reviewing eligibility since 30th. Even I haven't heard cases where correspondence letter has been received but no final decision has been made..

Is it? But it's fine or is it a problem?
And when should I expect.. As you see 4 weeks are getting over already..
Yes. Since you have travelled to major destinations- US & UK. They will verify about your previous visas and about your stay there, with concerned immigration authorities.
I have seen few ppl's bg verification taking more than a month time. So we can't tell exactly.
Those countries' (to which you have travelled before) immigration authorities have to send a report to Canadian immigration authorities. Then only they will proceed further.

But that was like in 2005 and 2007

Yes. I know. Its been more than 10 years.
But right now for the delay in your final decision, we can think of only bg verification as the reason.

Have you disclosed all these info in your application? That is, your travel to US and UK and your withdrawn EE application?
