***** AUGUST 2020 CEC APPLICANTS TIMELINE *****

[Woody24561]

Hey guys,
Got approval on web portal today.
AOR Aug 01, 2020
GU: Monday, March 8
And it shows that my background check was completed on march 8 as well.
I called ircc last Wednesday and everything was still the same (since last 3 months) i.e. eligibility recommended pass, Criminality in progress and security not started.
So in my opinion, they are processing files at a good pace just not updating it regularly.
So, hang in there!! PR coming sooner than later for everyone!

I got a GU update on Monday! Hoping for some good news soon!

Anyone got below message under Application Status on the Account Home page? I do not see any unread messages at the home page bottom.

Your application is taking us longer than usual to process.

About 20% of our applications are more complex to process. They take us longer due to things like how easily we can verify information, how well and how quickly you answer our requests and whether the application is complete.

If you aren't seeing updates, contact us using this Web form. Make sure you read your messages and take action when we ask you to.

Typically if you do everything correctly, there shouldn’t be any review required. It happens when see something is missing or suspicious.

If there is no review required (like you mentioned) then you have nothing to worry about. Just have to wait for a Senior Officer to pick up your file.
