That's good to know, my friend. Yes, I called IRCC last week and only security is not started. Finger Crossed!
Hope so..I have already booked flight to leave for India in April..Even TRV applications are proceeding very slow nowadays
 
Still waiting Security started! Who knows when it will started?
As per info available on forum, security is being processed simultaneously but we cant know about it..we can only know final outcome...Did you order GCMS?
 
It is kind of obvious that the call center agents are not the ones who review our applications. If everybody calls asking for a status, the processing time should not change. As nshar2111 just mentioned, you don't have to wait, just chose the option to receive a callback, and voila. If you are outland, just download Textnow, as the callbacks only work for Canadian numbers.

I called them twice to get an update (January and February). Both agents were very courteous and it did not take more than 15 minutes to talk to them.

Hey, by any chance do you know if US numbers get callback? Just curious to know. TIA.

After that criminality is in progress. Eligibility and anything else not started.
Hope this helps people to gauge. It appears mist ICt 2929 CEC Inland are in similar case so no use of calling/GCMS at this stage.
 
Hi @jaspersun0106

I really tried to find out about actual timeline or any trend related to SECURITY ; but it seems there is not 100% accurate timeframe. However I found out people with BIO passed (criminality) and ELIGIBILITY passed , officer will put them in their queue to just approve them (let's say approve security and then final approval). this is just my assumption and also based on cases I've seen in forum. I feel COPR is veryyy close! Let's hope!
Is your assumption only good for CEC applicants or FSW outland applicants as well?

Cases are different & can’t be judged from your phone call. People should order GCMS notes or call if they have to.

I did order ATIP files before my MEP and BIO. After I got GU I submitted another one yesterday. Because the files will printed out on the date your request it.
 
Hi,

@legalfalcon I received this as a web form reply. I think it is pretty generic. Is there something to worry about or is it a standard response. I specifically asked about my eligibility, security and criminality as well as the visa office.
