Long Background Check After Eligibility Passed Please Share Your Experience

[Kolex22]

Hi everyone,



I’m reaching out to hear from others who have been through a similar situation. My application status shows “Eligibility Completed”, but I’ve been waiting for a long time now with no updates on the background check.

If you’ve experienced a long wait after eligibility was completed, could you please share:

How long your background check took after eligibility?
What, if anything, you did to help move the process along (e.g., webform requests, MP inquiry, GCMS notes)?

Any advice or tips that helped you stay informed or get an update?


Your responses would really help and encourage those of us still waiting. Thank you in advance for sharing your experience!

Hi. We applied outland December 2024. We've been in background check since early March. Biometrics and Medicals were completed since February. No updates whatsoever, not even a ghost update on the tracker. I've sent a webform request in May but never heard back. At this point all we can do is wait and hope for an update soon.

I know, but its just frustrating to see people who applied months after us get their PPR within 2 or three months. We're just unlucky, I guess.
