Same here buddy..Similar timeline as yours, and my file hasn't been touched since May 2020.... It's really frustrating ad annoying..... details in signature...
hey, do you know if your eligibility was passed by case analyst or an officer?

when I called ircc today, they said that my eligibility was listed as ‘passed’ since aug but couldn’t confirm if it was by a case analyst or an officer.

I heard that the security is only initiated when the eligibility is passed conclusively by an officer. so is that why my security hasn’t been initiated?

GCMS notes show all passed and approved on Jan 21, 21, but on portal still showing pending. Is there anything that needs to be done? Or just keep waiting?
I found out in January that my application was approved Sept 30, 2020 according to GCMS notes. Last time I heard from IRCC was when I got the RPRF request and did biometrics in September. Nothing since then. I sent a webform to ask for updates, hopefully I get a response. Maybe send a webform as well and hope for the best.

In the GCMS notes Case processing agent has made the recommendation, but in the notes in the Assessments the eligibility is written passed.
I called IRCC to confirm the date when it was passed , it was May 1st 2020. Order GCMS notes, you will have a clear picture.

Same is my problem that why my security hasn't been initiated till now. and why is criminality is in progress. The assumption I have is that our cases are in the corner cabinet somewhere.

I am just wondering if anyone who is not under CEC has received CORP after the announcement that those will be processed with limited capacity.

Awesome news! COPR is coming soon.

Security passing in a few days is a common thing these days. Some people in other threads have reported Security passing in 2 days. How many days did it take for you?

How you guys are calling IRCC Agent? I've been trying to call since a month ago and it keeps saying that "due to high volume of calls we are unable to bluh bluh"... it's so frustrating!!

You have to keeping calling again and again. Some people have reported trying 8-9 times. However generally you'll get through after 5-6 tries or maybe 2-3 if you are lucky.

I find that if you call right when they open up you’re more likely to get through. Once it’s past 9 am EST it gets more difficult. Calling early is key I think

CEC-PNP inland applicant with dependent spouse outland.

AOR: March 10, 2020
Medical Passed: April 15, 2020
Biometrics request: April 15, 2020
Spouse outland Biometrics completed: August 14, 2020
Primary inland applicant biometrics completed: December 1, 2020

Eligibility: In progress
Criminality: Passed
Medicals Passed (Already expired in Feb 2021)
Security: Not started

On my dashboard, timeline is not present anymore and for message regarding Medicals have disappeared. Previously it said Medicals Passed April 15, 2020 but now it says "You do not need a medical exam. We will send you a message if this changes"

I have requested 3 GCMS notes to date. First in August 2020, second November 2020 and third in January 2021.
First and second were replicas. 3rd notes just said Criminality passed.

For Eligibility is says Further review required - STAT Question.

My file is in Etobicoke office since June 18, 2020.

My PGWP is expiring in June 2021.

It is getting frustrating and affecting my mental health very badly.

@legalfalcon I would like your advice once again. Should I apply for PGWP or BOWP? I am eligible for both. And what do you think is the reason for this delay. Why my file is sitting in local office and not being worked on? Why is eligibility taking so long? And what about medicals?

And I do appreciate every member's feedback and response on my case.

I heard that in the past, security used to take 4-6 weeks to pass. So security passing in 2 days means that it was already in progress but not updated in the notes. I doubt that the actual time it takes to do a security check can be 2 days.

Did you have a previous refusal ?
Further review requires indicated there was already one round of review ? What were the notes then.
You should see some useful notes in the NOTES section and see if they are looking for some special documents.
