When does the background check place? Is it before transferring the file to a local office or before? What exactly happens when the file is transfered to a local office?

BC requests are generated from Sydney, at the time your file is turned to "In Process" and most cases proceeds to next step afterwards. Three types of formal record checks 1) immigration/residency status 2) police/criminal 3) CSIS /security. These are surface level checks and results sent to local offices (central/local sharing). Any flags at this stage will cause further deep digging and delays.
Don't know exactly but it is apparent that next is test scheduling in the manner clearances are done and seat availability for test.
