Quick question for you: How old your Police Clearance Certificate was when it was approved? Was your PCC within 6 months when final decision was made. The reason i am asking because my PCC was 2-3 months old when i submitted my application. My PCC is 5-6 months old now since i am in IP1 for last 3 months. i am wondering if i should order new PCC ahead of time if in case they request new PCC.

I an in the same boat like you waiting for 98 days. Quick question for you: How old your Police Clearance Certificate is as of now? The reason i am asking because my PCC was 2-3 months old when i submitted my application. My PCC is 5-6 months old now since i am in IP1 for last 3 months. i am wondering if i should order new PCC ahead of time if in case they request new PCC. Any thought??
I guess it depends on the Visa Officer assigned to the files. If the officer is efficient and ethical enough then file moves quickly. In any office setup few employees take much longer time to assess files and do not bother to finish job before time. Same applies to IRCC.
PCC is only need to be valid at the time of eAPR, doesn't matter if it gets expired day after AOR.
"For the applicant’s current country of residence, the police certificate must have been issued no more than 6 months before the submission of the e-APR."

Thanks. It means i am fine because my all PCC was within 6 months time frame when i submitted my application on June 11, 2018
Ofcourse you are fine...it only needs not to have expired on the day you got your AOR.
Congratulations... Thats was pretty quick...
If you're a FSW - O candidate based in USA or an inland candidate ... and you're stuck in IP1 ... your application may be at Montreal.
If you have confirmed your visa office by either calling IRCC or by ordering GCMS notes and your application is at Montreal you can connect here

whats your nationality, occupation and countries travelled in the past 10 yrs. that's a better indicator of security screening than days after ip2
IP1 or IP2 do not mean anything. Few candidates see IP2 wordings from the day 1 but it does not mean their back ground check has started immediately even before R10 completeness check! Security normally starts after eligibility is set as Passed. You need to order GCMS notes to see when you've passed eligibility (or still in progress!). If it is already more than two months since passing the eligibility then there is a high probability that your file is under security screening which can take 15-25 months to complete but again no one can say for sure how IRCC works internally. I have seen cases took 8-9 months even without security screening! Don't be misguided by MyCIC account wordings. Order GCMS notes if you are concerned or you can wait it out.
