So it may be the case for 2021 files then.
For 2021 test files completed folks the first ghost update resulted in DM most likely. We never had ghost update for background check because there was no online tracker at that time before background check stage.
Will see what i would get this week as today is the ghost update for my profile in online tracker.

I find the "ghost updates" tend to be the missing "Language Skills", "Physical Presence" and "Prohibitions" on the new tracker - mine has been that way since end of July, when they all got updated simultaneously with no notification to me. Of note is that in the old system (ECAS), that's when I got my DM.

Good to know. Does ECAS offer any clues as to what the update might be?

Not yet buddy. Possibly by tomorrow or this week.
I didnt post this update in our windsor group because of file transferred to Edmonton due to my address change request earlier in May(but got transferred the day after my test).
