Hello All... My AOR is 3rd December and got to know the eligibility status as Review required. Is that something to worry about ?

Hey guys, how do you get the status info about eligibility, criminality, and security? By call?

My AOR is Dec 18. Medicals passed Jan 22 and on the same day, they've request RCMP.
Then I got this update:
  • February 3, 2021 We are reviewing the additional documents you provided.
And nothing else happened after that.

Yes, according to me, this is normal, as these days they are taking longer time due to covid

Dear All,

It is really frustrating that IRCC representative told me over the phone on 15th March that 'Criminality' has been passed; however, today they told me over the phone that. 'Criminality' is in progress. I am really confused now...

Is Etobicoke famous for their speed? My Visa Office is Etobicoke too.

Also I called just now and found it seemed very slow:
AOR - Dec 6
Med Passed - Jan 14, 2021
Eligibility - not started
Criminality - in progress
Security - not started

I see others are almost done while mine is still slow :oops:

Woke up this morning with a ghost update! I think it is the first since the upload and acceptance of my RCMP.
I called them and here is the status:

AOR - Dec 18
Med Passed - Jan 22
Biometrics Passed - Apr 17
RCMP Requested - Jan 22
Confirmed Reviewing RCMP - Feb 3
GU - Apr 14

Background check status informed by calling:
Eligibility - in process now
Criminality - cleared out, passed
Security - not started (the agent told it will start once Eligibility is passed)

Do you think this ghost update was about criminality?
How long is the average processing time for Eligibility? This is about all other documents I've provided? Don't understand much about what is this...
