Have you ever seen an application where criminality check was passed and then reopened to have "in process"?

I applied for BC PNP Express Entry on May 5, 2017.
I just got my CBSA notes and it says our (my common-law spouse and I) criminality checks were passed on August 3, 2017 and then on October 23, 2018, it was reopened to "in progress" and security still not started. And my file was transferred to the Caribbean (we are from there, but live and applied in Canada)

When I call or email I get the generic "we are working on it and will reach out to you if we need anything else". I also had the MP called and they just tell him that Background check takes as long as it takes because it's done through a third party service.

Do you have any suggestions on why it could be taking more than 2 years?

Thanks for your time.

Hello, I have the same situation with you. My criminality passed on August 17 2018 and it went into 'in progress' again yesterday. Pretty strange to me.
