To be very honest my friend I was never able to link my application to my account and never tried that desperately too. The telephonic update says the back ground check had not started yet. And on ECAS it says in progress for pr application and decision made for the sponsorship part. This update has been the same on ECAS since almost one year now.

So no clue man what’s gonna come up n when, All we can do is just wait n watch.

What’s ur say on this situation, also if any one else got some word of advise on this.
Gary / Sam,

Me too, I have no clue as to what is going on with NDVO & why they just have spurts & then complete silence. ECAS shows in progress & MyCIC shows Background check in progress. But it has been so for almost a year now....

I think you are ok! After SA, CIC should make next step instead of moving back to recheck SA. Also it is unfair to the sponsor who has been processed late although they said income should meet requirement all the time until file is finalized. So don,t worry and just wait :)

the status on my end has been "medical recvd" . its been almost 10 months since meds.

Copied from your comments on the SS:
From April 2017 till today (28 Dec 2017). This is the status and has not changed. My comments in red. Add any answers to it?
Application status: We are processing your application. We will send you a message when there is an update or if we need more information from you.
Review of eligibility: We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements. Help - Review of eligibility
Review of medical results: You passed the medical exam.
Review of additional documents : We need more documents to continue processing your application. We will send you a message with more details.
(but havent received any correspondence. Last one was for PCC and Medical request recvd in Feb 2017 which was completed)
Interview : You do not need an interview. We will send you a message if this changes.
Biometrics : We do not need your fingerprints. We will send you a message if this changes.
Background check: Your application is in progress. We will send you a message when we start your background check.
(Is a clean record on PCC considered for this.? By the way PCC was sent on March 08 2017)
Final decision: Your application is in progress. We will send you a message once the final decision has been made.
It means your Background Check is still in-progress. A clean PCC is surely a part of it, but IRCC will check the applicant and all accompanying and non-accompanying family members' name against all security database available. If any of them lived in other countries for more than 6 months, IRCC will request info from respective foreign agencies as well which takes time. Longer travel history also has an negative impact in BG Check. Besides, online status saying BG Check In-Progress doesn't necessarily mean they really started it, it may be just in queue.

(There are similar people like you in this spreadsheet, use FILTER sheet or view CPC-O sheet on the SS)

I made a thread re: this in 2016. Although time passed, this may still work. Here's the link to the thread:

Not sure. Did you try calling CIC help desk? Maybe the agents there might be able to assist you on the spot.

That seems odd. I thought you receive the CoPR with the PR visa stamped on passport. Can someone who recently received PR visa please confirm if there has been any change in the procedures?

I have sent passport to NDVO and awaiting stamping. Based on this post, am not sure whether to expect just the stamped pp or also the CoPR.

IndoCanadian777 - thanks for updating your status. Please let us know when you receive your passport back. Thank you!!
You will get the CoPR as well, my parents did find their CoPR later.
