I dont know what Post March 2020 - exam mean. Security is always blank. If it is passed then you will see BG as completed on the tracker.

Then there is issue/delay in finishing background check. Anything showing not completed or pending in gcms? May be its pending with csis(thats what i hear if background not complete).
Most officers wont issue test invite till background check.

Is your background check complete or yours too pending?

Post March 2020 - Exam is a status that I haven't seen before. It could simply mean that the file is in a pile of applicants whose tests are pending since March 2020.

For "what information to look for in notes" => You can take a look at the breakdown of my first set of notes here =>

https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-i...nship-applicants.700718/page-115#post-9437895

Security will always be redacted and you'll never see any due date, updated date or status.

If Criminality says "Completed" but Background checks are in Progress, you can deduce that the security checks are still pending.

For my Prohibition, Language and Residency I see a due date of March 04, 2021. We are way past the date now. Question is - does this really hold any significance or is meaning less?

Applied in Jan 2020, Ottawa, Test completed July 15, 2021.

@rajkamalmohanram looking for your thoughts.
