Haha! We’re tracking together again : ) my file just got transferred to Sydney also, received notification of it today.
After your file is transferred to the visa office and once your background check has started expect no updates or contact from the VO for at least 6 months.
This stage is your background and security check (they run your details through RCMP, CBSA, CSIS and other agencies including USA bio-metrics) They also verify your PCC and background. It can take anywhere from 1 month to 6 months it really just depends on your individual circumstances, travel and criminal history (if any).
For some; like me with a extensive travel history and sadly a criminal background (minor one) it can take a lot longer than 6 months. I'm a 14th July 2017 applicant and stuck in Background check since December 2017 .
Sit back, relax and enjoy the radio silence haha

How long did it take Sydney VO to start the background check once PA application received?
Ooooh. That’s not too bad. Was that “ file received “ in September in Canada or Sydney?
14th July 2017 file received in Canada, Transferred around September to Sydney VO.
