My notes are bit confusing. It's something like this in activity section:

08Jan Security - Not started
09Jan Medical - Passed
12Jan Criminality - Passed
28Jan Eligibility - Met
Security (hidden date and status)
26Apr Security screening - Not started
Security screening (hidden date and status, and this shows 3 times)


But when I go to notes I see that on 22Feb my file was sent to Vienna office, where agent wrote

17Mar - This application was selected for EE VV program. Emails sent to verify bank statement, police certificates, work experience and university diploma. (I was like, I was selected for what :eek:. I never found out what that means, EE maybe express entry, but what is VV)
26Apr - First referral initiated (again what :eek:)

BG went in progress on mycic on 26th Apr.

Now I don't understand if they started my security screening from Ottawa office in January, or it was done from Vienna in April.
Your SS started on 26/04 as mentioned not started

for the VV and the rest I really don't know

On the second page of your GCMS notes, what is your 'Eligibility' status? Is it 'Passed'?

There is no data for applicants with BCIP in January, and this may explain the lack of PPRs in May. Aplicants with BCIP on Feb 17 and Feb 28 are still waiting for their PPRs.

Good luck for us all!
Now, can i clarify:

BCIP - what does it mean?

Background check in progress?
