App received on April 13th, and yes. No idea when my application was transferred or even if it has since ECAS still says "Application Received" and I did NOT get an AOR2 or any other emails.

I'm guessing you're sponsoring from Pakistan as well, are you in the Pakistan thread?
Mine says the same as yours.
ECAS just says received.
yet GCKeys say's they're going my eligibility.
we're in this thread if we haven't gotten transferred yet.

I've heard that the eligibility part stays like that until DM. For me it said this for eligibility since soon after I uploaded the requested docs:
"We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements."

Yeah mine says that too.
i'm a US applicant and you said you only applied in April.
that's only a little over three months, it seems like they're only holding back US and UK applicants right now, you're probably fine.
I have been like this since early FEB and someone else here since mid JAN.

Our application is stuck as well....and supposed to be transferred to Vienna as I am in Germany....whenever I call - same response everything is fine, be patient....we have a new way of processing the apps and yours needs to sit in Mississauga for a while...what answer is that?....I am just sad to be held in dark. I wish I know what is happening....nothing else.

Yes. For a lot of people, eligibility doesn't change during the process. The only thing that ever changed on our account was when the background check started and then everything just sat there until the very end. The details were updated only after the visa was issued and they were done with us.

It has been mentioned many times on the forum that the GCKey isn't a reliable indicator of what's going on with your account.

Wait.... they told you it needs to sit there?
They literally told you it just has to sit there for a while?
What kind of fresh hell is that?

I think for some people the background check doesn't even change

Getting discouraged.
Also haven't seen many Americans getting DM though from any month other than December.

My ECAS status just updated to "In Process" today, GCKey showed background check started on the 27th. Not sure if this is a delay or if they actually just sent the application to LVO.
