Hi When you say "eligibility started" - did you get a notification saying that. My update only says "Under eligibility review"

My dates are as follows:

1. Applied: Jan 13th
2. Biometrics Completed: Jan 19th
3. Medical - Not needed as applying from USA
4. Awaiting next step
My wait time as per USA is 8 weeks.

And what's your status in Canada?

Its still quick for you. For myself it was the following:

Applied 4th of June
BIL 5th of June
Biometrics updated 9th of June
Upfront medical updated 30th of August
Eligibility review started 30th of August

Nothing since then.
I am on my post graduate work permit here, working full-time in a NOC-B position :) how about yourself? Are you working as well?

I hope you get a decision on your application soon dear In Sha Allah!
