Review of eligibility --> We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements.
Review of medical results --> You passed the medical exam. (12-July).

CIC requested Canada RCMP on 12th July and I have shared the same with them on 1-Aug.
My profile hasn't gone to NA status for Background check.

Review of additional documents --> The additional documents you provided have been uploaded. (1-Aug to 25-Aug. Uploaded the RCMP report on 1-Aug). This status changed to "We do not need additional documents" on 25th Aug.

Can anyone please help me to understand whether I am in IP1 or IP2?

Also, is there anyone else with the same situation?

Prima facie, seems to be IP2. When did your background check changed to "We are processing..." from IP1 ?

AoR : 15 - 20 June?

From the BG Message "We are processing your background check. We will send you a message if we need more information" it seems you are close to PPR.

What is your AOR date and Visa office?

I am seeing "We are processing..." since my medical is passed.
There is a difference in the wordings of IP1 and IP2.

IP1 : Your application is in progress. We will send you a message when we start your background check.

IP2: We are processing your background check. We will send you a message if we need more information.

Seems that you missed the NA2.

I am not sure on that. CIC requested RCPM Criminal record check and because of that my 'background check' status is not following the same trend as many of us follow.

Because of this, i am confused in IP1 and IP2.

There are two different things. Application status remains in process until we complete stamping.

Regarding BG status - It will go through different stages and let me try to make it clear to you to avoid any further confusion.

Prior to March 7, CIC used to maintain the below BG status.
1. Not needed at this time (NN)
2. Not Started (NS)
3. In Progress (IP)

After March 7, they paraphase the above status as follows.

1. Not Applicable (NA) ( Old Status :: NN)
2. Next to step to conduct BG Check (NBG) (Old Status : NS)
3. In Progress (IP)

People in the threads are using the above status interchangeably. So, don't get confused.

Now as far as BG process is concerned, it will go through the below trends. I'm using new status words for your reference.

Trend 1: NA -> IP -> NA -> IP
Trend 2: NA -> NBG-> NA-> IP

Some people who are submitting RCMP along with eAPR follows Trend 2 and rest Trend 1. I may not be 100% accurate. But this is what I noticed for CEC Inlanders.
Once the applicant at IP(2), he can expect PPR anytime soon.

Regarding at what stage BG will change??

STAGE 1:: After we submit our application, the BG status would be NA and it will be there until we see a change in Medical status (Passed).

STAGE 2:: After medical update is done, then agent at CIO will change our BG to IP or NBG. Then, he will start R10 check, Criminal checks.

STAGE 3:: After the above checks are done, then he will change BG to NA and our file moved to next stage for Eligibility assessment (A11.2) . Once he/she feels that we are meeting the Eligibility then he/she will provide his/her recommendation to Visa Officer and initiate the Security Clearance. At this point only our file will be moved from CIO to CPC.

STAGE 4:: Officer at Local Visa Office (LVO) will review the recommendation, Security clearance reports. Once he/she satisfies then he/she will approve the recommendation. Then our BG will be changed to IP again. This is where PPR(Passport Request) mails triggered to applicants.
