Hello everyone, I have submitted the express entry application on 19th September and gave my Biometrics on 17th October 2018. Since then my application says "We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements." and the background check is not started yet.

The timeline estimated for them to process my application was March 19, 2019, which is exceeded by3 weeks. I am from Sri Lanka and I am really worried if this is normal or its that my application has come issues which makes it difficult for them to process.

Please can anyone advice on
1. Is this normal
2. possible reasons for taking longer than usual to process
3. Is there a way I can get more information on my application.

Thanks,
mrB

Hello everyone... I would really appreciate if anyone could help me out.

My name is Mathew and I am an Indian residing in UAE applying for a study permit for Sep'19 batch. I have applied along with work permit for my wife and visitor visas for my 2 kids.

My application date (online): 24th Mar
Biometrics done: 27th Mar
Medical: Done upfront

Currently the status on my profile is as below:

Application status - We are processing your application. We will send you a message when there is an update or if we need more information from you.
Review of eligibility - Your application is in progress. We will send you a message when we start reviewing your eligibility.
Review of medical results - You do not need a medical exam. We will send you a message if this changes.
Review of additional documents - We do not need additional documents.
Interview - You do not need an interview. We will send you a message if this changes.
Biometrics - We do not need your fingerprints. We will send you a message if this changes.
Background check - We are processing your background check. We will send you a message if we need more information.
Final decision - Your application is in progress. We will send you a message once the final decision has been made.

This status has been constant since 24th Mar, and it seems the eligibility review has still not started!!!! However, the background check is showing as being processed.

Does it really take this long to review eligibility? Everywhere I am reading that in a few days from applying, this status changes to 'we are reviewing your eligibility'. I am really getting anxious here and hope someone would be kind enough to shed some light in this matter.
Many thanks.

I am an FSW-O applicant.

I am a consultant myself, My documentation was legit and error free. They approved it in 67 days.
Hello Sir,
I had applied for study permit SDS offline on 25th April
File dispatched from VFS mumbai to Bangalore OC and reach there forwarded to IRCC office.
I had signed all the application but I don’t remember whether I had put a sign on study permit.
In my current status it is submitted uci nd Biometric number is visible in my CIC A/c
Medical passed yesterday and No additional documents is required
Eligibility review started along with the background check.
If it was not sign they would have return my application right ? As it clearly states on their instruction guide
