Post-AOR Step By Step

Hi everyone

I recently found this online and I felt I needed to share this. Please note this is not my work so please check out their website if you're looking for more info. Hope this helps you as it's helped me:

BG Check and medical status and its meaning post-AOR


Generally, your application will follow the below path after the submission.

1. BG Check: Not Applicable (NA1)
2. Medical passed – (MEP)
3. BG Check In Progress (IP1) – R10 check is done here.
4. BG Check: Not Applicable (NA2) – Eligibility check is done here.
5. BG Check: In Progress (IP2) –
6. BG Check: Not Applicable (NA3) – Sometimes this doesn’t come
7. PPR: Passport Request
8. CoPR: Confirmation of Permanent Residence

So it is in below order

AOR – NA1 – MEP – IP1 – NA2 – IP2 – NA3 – PPR – CoPR

AOR: This is a letter you will get within 24 hours after submission of your PR application.

NA1: “Not applicable“. This will be your BG status message as soon as you submit and get AOR. Typically, this will be status till the time you get your medical passed status.

MEP: “You passed the medical exam“. This will generally happen after approx 25-30 days after your AOR. For PNP applicants it can take more time generally.

IP1: This will happen one or two days after your medical. Sometimes on the same day itself. BG status message in this stage will be “Your application is in progress. We will send you a message when we start your background check.”. CIC agents will do R10, criminality checks during this stage. Once they feel everything is good then they will change it to NA. These things will happen at CIO Office (Centralized Intake Office).

NA2: “Not applicable“. This will signify that IP1 is completed. Sometimes IP1 will take few hours and if we have not checked our account during the time it was in IP1, it won’t be possible to know that we are in NA1 or NA2. Our file will be transferred to CPC (Case Processing Center) where agents will do eligibility assessments. If they feel everything is okay, then they will provide their recommendation to Visa Officer and same time they will initiate Security Checks.

IP2: BG status message in this stage will be “We are processing your background check. we will send you a message if we need more information.“. Visa Officer starts reviewing or after reviewing all agents recommendations. On the same day, PPR request will be triggered if the applicant paid RPRF up front. These things will be done at CPC office.

Generally messages will be like below in IP2 status:

NA3: “Not applicable“. This will signify that IP2 is completed. This status is not visible is many cases and direct PPR request is placed from IP2.

PPR: Passport Request. You will get an email for that and you may not get an update in your CIC account for this.

ADR: Sometimes an additional document is requested in IP1 or IP2 stage. An email, as well as message in your CIC account, will be sent.

Hi,

MY AOR is 28th Feb. On 8th March I got the email for Medical passed. And my Background status message is shown as "We are processing your background check. we will send you a message if we need more information" . I can see exactly the same status what you are showing the status for IP2.
Can you please comment what might have happened here. I don't see any reason for skipping any steps in between.

I am no expert but from various posts I have read thus far, I believe you are now in IP2 stage. It seems surprisingly quick to reach that stage. I got AOR on 6th march and my status changed to 'Your application is in progress. We will send you a message when we start your background check', on 20th. My meds passed on 19th March. May be your officer is processing in a different manner or may be you can expect your PPR anytime now. Which country are you from?

Mine as well. I am still stuck at "We will let you know when we begin your background check." So still in IP1 I guess. Hopefully at least by the end of this month we move another step ahead.

Hi

I received my PPR mail this morning. Next step is to contact India VFS. Hopefully you get your PR soon. Keep checking. They are processing fast.
Wish you all the very best.

You are in IP1 however, don't attach too much to these cic updates. You could as well be very close to the PPR mail without knowing it. Some people got PPR without getting to IP2.
