Hi guys, My application(from april 22) seems to be in IP1 yet. I called cic in May and they said my file was in the Sidney being processed, and just now I called them again and they said it's being processed in ottawa, it makes me wonder whether it's IP1 or IP2. how can I know it? thanks.
Most probably IP2, whats the wording of BG check status? Mine followed the same pattern, IP1 done in Sydney, IP2 in Ottawa.

I am CEC outland too, 25th April AOR. Now in India. BGC move to Not Started on 25th July. Did they request u for RCMP?
Hi Almostther; IRCC requested a RCMP check for my spouse but not for me (although we both spent the exact same amount of time in Canada previously). On the other hand, I was requested to provide additional details of foreign government and foreign military experience. FYI, the RCMP request came in just after I went from IP1 to N/A in April. The military checks request came in immediately after I paid the RPRF fees in June.

you are in very early stage of an application process. after a month or in around 20 days letter that you will see following changes 1) You passed the medical exam and "processing " word where reviewing " terminology used and may be backgrnd chk in progress as well after that. However will say this may change from an application to application .2) officer to officer and file volumes. .
Still, i will say best luck.
Medical changed from 'You Passed Medical to you do not need Medical a month ago'.
BCG status Changed from The next stage is to conduct BCG to We will send you msg bla bla bla when we start your BCG to NA (Last week).
Additional docs: Changed from Reviewing to do not need additional docs. (Which I've confirmed by calling CIC)
Hope I am not in early stage..

Thanks for your time..

It says:
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.

Also, in 16-06-2017 they asked additional documents(CELPIP only), and the status was "The additional documents you provided have been uploaded".
Today(25 after BG not Started to BG in Progress) it changed to "The additional documents you provided are being reviewed".
My complete status is:

Is it one more tip I'm in IP2 as the visa office was Sidney and now is Ottawa? The problem is that I'm looking cic everyday and I didn't see it changing from IP1 to NA .

Many thanks guys!
