Hi @cansha
I’m a FSW inland applicant. Today I got an update in my account which was about background check.
My Aor is August 18,2019
Eligibility is marked as review required in November 2019.
So this is the only update that I’ve seen since then. My background check changed to ‘We’re processing..’ from ‘in progress’

What does that mean? Should I expect ppr any time soon?

I think we are on the same boat.

My AOR is Aug 29, eligibility RR in November 2019. I got the GU, the only update, on April 1 and the background check changed to ‘We’re processing..’ from ‘in progress’.

In the past that was a clear indication of PPR is near. Even in my case my PPR came within a few hours after the status changed to in processing and that was the experience of many others.

However, since you are inland you may not get immediate PPR as they do landing interviews instead. Also, given the current situation past experience may not hold true any longer. But, I think it is a good sign and indication that someone is still working on your file.

What was the reason for RR? I ordered gcms and they’ve put my file under RR without any reason.. So should we interpret this GU as we might be passed eligibility?

Thank you for your quick response. Yes, everything is unpredictable now under these circumstances..

@cansha I recently got a GU on my profile. My AOR is 29th August 2019. I’m an FSW- Outland candidate. Does this GU mean something.
PS I have an RR on my job experience

Tough to say with RR on job experience. Those are tricky. What was the RR for and did you provide additional documentation proactively?

hey,
The RR wasn’t clear. Everything was fine. Only the date of issue of letter was missing. As soon as I got gcms, I submitted the document with corrected information and also attached some supporting documents too!

Okay then may be RR was cleared and hence the ghost update.
