Hi All,

Creating this thread so we can update each other by posting changes in our application status here.

I believe the two stage process (with AiP) is no longer applicable for those who applied after September 15 and/or for any intake in 2021.

This thread is dedicated for those applying or have applied for Winter 2021 after September 15, 2020.

Looking forward to seeing your status update on the thread.

Thank you!

Same here. Nothing has changed after submitting my biometrics. Since then it says that my application is in progress with background check being processed and eligibility being reviewed. It's been 3 months now.

Is medical exam not at all required for your country or at the moment the status is being shown as "not required" because in my country providing medical is a necessity but right now the status on GCKey portal is being shown as "not required".
