Hi Guys,

I got confused what stage my case is currently?

The "background check" changed to "We are processing your background check. We will send you a message if we need more information." before the medical passed.

The medical passed and fingerprints completed, but background check is the same. I did not notice any change. Did they start IP2 before medical results completed? I thought the background check would start after review of eligibility not before reviewing of medical results.

Thank you for your help in advance.

===========================
- Review of eligibility: We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements.
- Review of medical results: You passed the medical exam.
- Review of additional documents: We are reviewing the additional documents you provided.
- Interview: You do not need an interview. 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.
===========================
It was same for me, then I got an email on how to find a job in Canada and then BG status changed to IP1 (application in progress). So I guess the next step for you will be that email regarding finding a job in Canada if you haven't already received one. My guess is that your BG will go back to IP1 and then it will change to IP2 (BG processing); that would be the real BG check. That's what I think but I do see people saying that BG status doesn't mean anything. I am telling you the pattern I have seen with a couple of people.

i got that job letter when i first created my ee profile and didnt get it again , also, my ip2 lasted one day which i think is impossible to complete a bg check so i think this bg check starts as soon as they start your application. Tryin to figure out an exact timeline for things is impossible, bottom line its a wait game, once you know all your documents have been sent then you just wait :)

you sent in your application, now all you have to do is wait :) times varies for different applicants so it makes no sense trying to compare yourself with different ppl then freak yourself out when something happens in their application and not yours

Hey, I am glad you moved ahead with your file. But before your update sends out more frenzy across the forum and people start wondering why they are only the one stuck , you must update that you are applying from States. :p :D

Cheers!
