@daveishan what does it say in your background check section when you login online? Mine changed to Not Applicable. Not sure if that means anything.
That means it must have ended and someone updated in the system. Were you in SS?

My security was not started as per the notes received last month
No idea then. There have been instances where security gets done really quickly for some applicants. I am just not sure now with the way IRCC works nowadays - hope for the best! The good sign is that at least someone opened the application.

Got this email today from IRCC at 4:48AM IST.

Update on IRCC processing capacity for your Economic Class – Federal Skilled Workers (EE) application.
If you are a representative, please share this important information with your clients.
Dear client,

Thank you for your interest in Canada. We are looking forward to having you here.

Due to the impacts of coronavirus disease (COVID-19), we’re experiencing longer than usual processing delays. Rest assured, we are still actively processing your Economic Class – Federal Skilled Workers (EE) application, but it will take longer than usual to get back to you.

This also means that we are unable to provide accurate processing times on individual applications at this time. As a result, we have removed the progress bar in the online account of Economic Class – Federal Skilled Workers (EE) clients. You can still get the most current information about the status of your Economic Class – Federal Skilled Workers (EE) application by checking the ‘Details about application status’ section in your online account.

In order to provide you with the most up-to-date information about our current processing capacity, we are posting weekly updates on expected processing delays by type of application.

Keep us informed of your situation
While you wait, please contact us to let us know of any changes in your application, such as a change to your situation or contact information.

Important information about Canada’s travel restrictions due to COVID-19
To protect Canadians from COVID-19, travel restrictions are in place for individuals travelling to Canada. Even when your application is complete, you may not be able to travel to Canada right away. As the COVID-19 situation changes, we regularly update our website. Visit the coronavirus disease page on the IRCC website to find the latest information before you make travel plans, and again before departing for Canada, to avoid being denied boarding or entry in Canada.

We are sorry to keep you waiting and thank you for your patience,

Sincerely,
Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada

@ciscomathew my eligibility too was under review, but, in January 2020, IRCC asked for pof and IMM5406 again. And then, based on multiple phone calls with IRCC, they have confirmed eligibility was passed in January 2020. However, bgc check is still under progress for my wife and me. Have not heard from IRCC since February 2020.

OK... In my case they never asked any additional documents and thats make me thinking that the file has stuck up somewhere without any movement. No idea at all how long more need to wait for Canada COPR or should give up with it.
