Even my gc key shows background check be


Yes so before the PR application tracker went off, it use to show every thing completed not just the background check, bg check was in progress. Also i got a update in application tracker on 2 april that medical got completed which is very much already completed last year
 
I called them last week and they said my background check has not been started yet
Right now calling the IRCC isn't much help because if we don't have access to the database, they don't either. Your best bet right now is to submit a webform. That goes to an agent directly and you'll get an answer from them.
