Need help. Please read the scenario stated below, speculate my current standings and suggest me what to do.

My AOR is November 2020

Medical passed and biometric done in December and January consecutively.

GCMS note ordered in February 2021 and it took 120 days (4 months) to come back and as of February the date on which the note was generated, my application status is -

Eligibility- not started
Security- not started
Criminality- passed
Medical- passed
Biometric- done
Info Sharing- in progress

Review required on statutory questions as I have previous student visa refusals.

Ok as it the gcms note took 120 days and it contains the old info as per the generated date, I decided to raise webform in May and they replied-

“The application is now queued for review. Once the review has taken place, if any further documentation or information is required before a decision can be made on the application, our office will contact the applicants directly. Until the review has been completed, we will not be able to provide any further information. Please wait to be contacted by our office.”

After exactly 1 month in June I raise another webform the reply was exactly identical as the previous one stated above.

My query is - Are both the review they ask in note and webform same one?

Note*** From the beginning in my cic portal the background status was “we are processing” then it changed to “in progress” and then just 2 days after I raised my first webform in May 2021 it has changed back to “we are processing”.

I received 2 ghost updates other than the updates on Sunday but no change has reflected in my profile yet. I know ordering gcms note is a way to get the details but I would like you guys to direct me what to do and predict what’s those reviews for.
Are they same???

One possibility is that eligibility may have passed.
Best way to know either call IRCC or raise a GCMS request.

My VO is Singapore. So there’s no way to call them. Raising webform seems ineffective and gcms takes time. Will order a gcms next month as I want to take a month of interval between two communications with ircc or vo.

@legalfalcon Hi can you please help me with the below concern.

My PR application is currently under process and at the time of applying I had sufficient funds and no loan. However, I will be traveling to canada next month for study purpose and have now taken education loan.

At the time of COPR, though I will have enough funds (my own), but I will also have education loan on my shoulder, though the EMI will start after 6 months of graduating and I plan to settle those once I find a job after graduation.

My question is will this loan impact my confirmation? and how should I explain my position to visa officer at that time?

Thank You.

PoF is usually seen and evaluated during eligibility.
@legalfalcon where is my application processed?

Primary office: CIO
Secondary office: CPC- Ottawa

are there processing delays in said office?
The applications are routinely transferred to different offices across IRCC network based on workload, efficiency, specific country requirements etc.

See https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/publications-manuals/operational-bulletins-manuals/service-delivery/file-transfer.html

Currently, your application is at CPC-O, and your primary office (application responsible office)is Central Intake Office.

Ottawa seems to be sitting on a lot of files in recent months. I hope they are able to handle the backlogs efficiently.

Update: Passed my medical results as of March 4th. Also, got a request letter on the 4th to pay my Biometrics fee. Which I paid and uploaded the receipt as requested.
Does anyone know if ill be getting the request to go and submit my biometrics soon?
Did you get your biometrics instruction letter? How long after uploading the receipt did you take to get biometrics instruction letter.

@legalfalcon or seniors - there is a recent change in POF updated in CIC. Does this implies to all of us who received AOR and waiting for COPR? Please help in clarifying this
Any change after you have submitted your application does not apply to you. It only applied for applicants who will submit the application.
