I am also on the same boat, AOR Jan 6th, Same VO. I am starting to think that not starting security is their way to keep applications on hold until the ban is lifted. I am speculating based on multiple people with the exact same response from that office.

Hello, i've got a quick question here. How do I use the TextNow App to obtain a Canadian number. By now I expected them to be done with my application but from my latest web form reply, everything is still in process with security not even started. AOR is Jan 10

I hope they would atleast complete the process and keep applications on hold. Previously PNP used to be faster than FSW but for some reason its other way round now. As such Sydney VO is slow ; Covid-19 is making it more difficult.
 
This is the response I got today. I am inland with Aor Jan 26. @andy108 Please help me understand, is my eligibility under review?
· The application meets the eligibility requirements under the immigration program for which you have applied,
· The eligibility review has not been initiated.
· The security background verifications have not been initiated.
· The criminal background verifications are valid.
· The medical examination results on file are valid.

Hello, pls how can a relative order gcms notes on my behalf? And how long does it generally take? Any difference between using a relative and using third party? Thanks
 
@legalfalcon does getting married while you have an in progress PR application matter? will this have any effect on how they process my application? my fiancé is Canadian and does not need to be added
 
Hi everyone I ordered my GCMS notes on 12 June and received them today need some help in understanding the current scenario. The assessments section on page two shows the following results;

Eligibility: Recommend Passed
Security: Not Started
HIRV: (Blank)
Criminality: Passed
Medical: In Progress
Misrepresentation: (Blank)
Info Sharing: Complete

However, pages 50 onward show different activities under the heading of Applications e.g. application 1, 2 etc. There it says Medical Passed, which is then updated to In Progress from Passed. I am confused. The detailed section of my medicals also says Passed.

Further the update date on my GCMS Notes if 25 Feb does this mean that there was no movement in the file after that date ?
My case has no movement since Feb 25:)
 
fsw o - aor jan 6 - VO ottawa / all passed and valid 1st week of June. I received a survey yesterday early morning.

Still Waiting for rprf request.
