Good news :) . Yah, getting remedical request mean security finalized . Hope you get PPR soon
I have heard remeds is needed in some cases to continue BG aka security checks. Seen a few cases in a whatsapp group which was why I particularly inquired about my security status by calling CIC as well as raising a webform.
I hope so too! Can’t wait to see PPR!

Getting remedical request doesn't necessarily mean security concluded. I have seen a few cases where the applicant was required to redo medical and then the case plunged into long silence once more. That being said, in most cases remedical does indicate security finalized. Are you an inland applicant? You can call them to confirm your status.
Im not inland, I called them using the App before christmas and agent said all passed. No point for asking for remedical if security still pending. As I know VO will not ask for remedical unless nothing left because the applicant already did medical before so last thing they check before passport request is the medical to make sure validation of the medical also visa validity will be depend on the medical expiration.

Usually, security only starts after eligibility is passed, so it is highly likely that your eligibility check is over by the time you received this reply, but you cannot be 100% sure unless you order GCMS notes or call the IRCC call center.
bro that's not true. My security is passed but my eligibility is still just "met' not "passed"

Bro

"Met"and "pass" are used interchangeably to refer to the check done by a case processing analyst. Our eligibility is only "definitely passed" by a senior officer at the final review stage.
if what you said is true, then i am so glad. However, I do hear lots of people saying that for eligibility, met and "recommended pass" are interchangeable, not "pass". Are you sure of what you said? No offense bro, just double check. Thanks for your answer though.

Pre-Assessed..
Yes
Bro

I'm very happy to share the info that I have about this topic with you.

The first time I paid attention to this issue is when I was browsing this forum several months ago when I saw a comment made by one of the seniors on this forum which said that "met' "recommended pass" and "pass" are all used interchangeably by the case processing analyst, who does our eligibility check in the second stage in our three-stage eligibility check (the first stage is the preliminary check by a program assistant and the final stage is the final review by a senior officer). After this case processing analyst has done the check and is satisfied, he or she will use one of the three terms we mentioned here to mark your eligibility (met/pass/recommended pass), so the conclusion is: these three terms are used interchangeably in the second stage (case processing analyst' review). This is the information I have got from this forum.

As to my own case. I received my notes back in Nov 2019. On my notes my eligibility was clearly marked as "passed". When I went deeper into the "notes" section, I could only see notes from the program assistant (1st stage) and case processing analyst (2nd stage). There was absolutely no notes left by a senior officer by the time my notes were generated. This has further confirmed my previous assumption that met/pass/recommended pass are used interchangeably only in the second stage (case processing analyst).

As to your case, I guess your eligibility was done by a case processing analyst long before security was cleared and now the file is perhaps in the queue for a senior officer's final review. Once that officer is satisfied, your eligibility will be marked as "pass" and then PPR is sent out. What I meant by "security is only initiated after eligibility is passed" is that security only starts after your eligibility has passed the second stage review (case processing analyst), not the final review, which is usually done after security is cleared).

However, I have seen one case where the senior officer reviewed that person's eligibility and marked it as pass while his SS was still ongoing.

I cannot say my understanding is 100% correct, but based on the substantive information on this I have collected during the last few months, what I said here is likely to be the case:)
Lol, I think you have only furthered confused others. I think it's best to avoid too much speculation as no one here who comments in the end actually has any experience working as a case analyst or visa officer at IRCC for that matter. In the end all are assumptions and speculations.
As for my input on this matter I can assure you that once you see 'Passed' on your Eligibility Status it is 99.9% guaranteed that one is done with Eligibility part and even after final review it will remain the same. And as for the other matter of status being 'Recommended Pass' or 'Met' or whatever that means it is still too early in your application to jump to any conclusions. As an applicant one only needs to be concerned with seeing 'Passed' as a final status for each part Eligibility, Security, Medical and Criminality.

1.the ONLY way to check things about SS is to order cbsa note (google to get to know how to order notes)
2. you cannot expect the time. I can only say usually it can be 7-10 months whose SS started in 2019. BUT there are people are longer than this.

btw, eligibility does not come with SS... they are different thing. SS is after. you can only count when SS get started.

you need to confirm if you are in ss or not. not all people have ss.

good luck !
