Hey all,
On 24 Jan 2021 I was checking the application then I saw there is an update.. Then when I opened it it is not showing anything has been updated until now.
I heard it called ghost update but how long will it take to show us that there is an actual update?

I know some things about GHOSTS. Ok first what is your Visa Office?
Did update appear immediately when you entered GCKEY? or did it glitch then appear when you reloaded.
Also what stage are you in your application. All this is info to assess YOUR GHOST.

Do the agents tell us the status the application is in? How to contact them?

Thank you for your reply! I want to confirm my police certificate is still valid or not.
You called IRCC office not VO Ottawa, right?
