Hi there fellows,
My pr application is delayed for over a year. Just checked my tracker, and it says that background check is completed but eligiblity not even started yet. Could someone please tell me what does that mean and how long would it take to complete eligiblity?
In my tracker, Eligibility has not been done although I had Portal emails.

According to the tracker:
What does Eligibility mean?
We’re making sure that you meet the requirements to be eligible for the spouse, partner or child class.

I included my partner but my Eligibility in the tracker has not been complete because it's not either 'spouse' or 'partner' class.
So 'exact' details can be found on a GCMS note. If you see everything except Eligibility in the tracker is done, then you may see 'Final: Approved' on the GCMS note.
(Eligibility, Medical, BIO, Security, and Criminality should be done if your application is almost done.)

My advised is only from my own opinion and experience or do what exactly as i said with your quotes. have you link you IRCC portal to your ircc secure account.? Because if your application for PR staging background completed but you still using immitracker to know the statuses? perhaps you must linked you portal to secure to know more further than immitracker showing about your application. this is only advise my friend but try it.
In addition to this, GCKey is somewhat different from my last GCMS note which has 'All passed' and 'Final: Approved'.
Like I said above, the Eligibility of GCKey and that of the tracker are different.
Obviously, the tracker shows everything was completed except the Eligibility.

Review of additional documents

Biometrics
  • November 15, 2023 Completed.
Background check
  • We are processing your background check. We will send you a message if we need more information.
Final decision
  • November 27, 2023 Your application is in progress. We will send you a message once the final decision has been made.

Winnipeg VO too. I’m able to login to GCKey but the status fields say:
Application status is currently unavailable. Please try again later.

I think it’s just a system error.

Happy New Year's! I'm gathering documents for my non EE PNP PR application, and I was unsure about what should I upload for the photo. The guide says: "The back of one (1) photo must contain the following and must be uploaded.", so are we expected to upload a pdf file with the front and back of the photo? What did you end up doing? Thanks!

That's correct.
The back of the photo should include:
  • The business name and address that you had your photo.
    (Yes, you should take one from professional.)
  • The date that you got the photo.
  • Your name and Date of Birth (DOB)
I scanned both sides, included them in a single page using a photo editing program, and printed as PDF.

That's very helpful, thank you! Do I need to send it as a single page or can I also send as two pages? (one page for each side of the photo)

Similar timeline. MEP again because old one was expired and they extended the medical validity (see Tracker). Nothing after MEP2 in my case.
