Just curious, do they start processing right away? Or application goes into some queue and waits for months before processing starts?

You can use the spreadsheets to see average timings. You can see the different stages in my signature as well. Good luck.

I can see the timing - during that time (between AOR and test invite) it's mostly waiting in the queue right? Or processing, background check and verifying physical residence altogether takes 3-4 months of work? Does "Application Received" to "In Process" change in ECAS mean anything at all?

Application Received, to In Process means they have started looking at your file.
