Hi thanks for your response, do you mean one month after AOR or one month after medical pass? Thank you!
After AOR, eligibility and medical both will happen together and could take more than a month. Im hoping to get mail soon.

So do you mean if medical passed your eligibility also passed? Thank you!
They usually get updated together, so yeah..but in some cases it could happen separately but if your application is complete, then don't worry about it..

i don’t think they will update your eligibility section, as I heard from others, it will still shows processing, if you call them or request the notes you may know the result

Well if you think that then if you have passed over a month then you can try calling IRCC. Keep us posted here.

Nope. The program assistant gives a recommendation to pass once r10 is okay and medical is updated as passed and BIL sends out. Then a case analyst will go through the file and check the authenticity of documents. It's a lengthy process. Finally he gives a recommendation to pass or put it on review by an officer. Either way an officer has to finally pass it and then security will start or once security is passed, then the eligibility becomes passed. Order gcms notes if you have applied few months back and will know the exact stages.

And I do see your AOR is on March 7th, so what is your progress bar looks like? and does the delay caused by biometrics? and you have passed everything else.

My progress bar is now at 94% and yep passed everything else except biometrics. It took around five months for them to pass eligibility mainly because of covid I think. Btw the progress bar is based on the date of AOR. It doesn't have any relation to the actual file processing.
