Guys, my application status went from "On Hold" to nothing (ie. the field is blank now where the "On Hold" was before)... any idea on what could be going on?

That might be due to recent changes in CIC website... I am experiencing same...

Hello everyone.
Can someone help me understand few things with my application made to CIC.

I have my PR application processed along with my wife who is not in Canada. This application was made with the help of BCPNP through which I had received 1000 points. Had got confirmation for submission of my PR application on 21st March 2017.
Along with this also have my BOWP being processed which was submitted on 24th March 2017. My status shows nothing from "On Hold".

Does anybody know if PR application with BCPNP and spouse takes longer then regular application?
Also about BOWP, does anyone know why does it take so long and also it shows nothing in the status?

Your advice would be a great help to me.
Thanks in advance.
