Info sharing is the part of BG and is little different than security/criminality. In info sharing - the CBSA/IRCC checks information from NZ,US,UK,AUS- these 4 countries.
Info sharing does NOT apply to all applicants. Usually, affected applicants are those who have previously applied (whether the visa was approved or not) with any of Canada’s partner countries in the Five Eyes intelligence alliance i.e. Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom and the United States.
Yes, same with me. Have US visa stamped and maybe that's what causing the delay for info-sharing
I have US history with multiple US Visas. Info Sharing was complete pending review by officer since Nov 2022.

I don't think the amount of time it takes to get info sharing report from partner countries depends on whether or not you have any Visa before as it's automatic process and file gets added to applicant case file in GCMS. The problem is the concerned officer need to review to mark it complete which is causing more delays.

Totally agree with you. It's a matter of having an officer updating our files, which is something that doesn't happen since January o_O

I've received IMM1017(I.e medicals) for my application. Earlier, I had submitted medicals performed in 2019 for my wp.
Please check my signature for more details.

Yet, I am not seeing any place to upload the medicals in the document section. It's just they have requested the medicals.
Do anyone know how I need to upload the result? Perhaps through webform?

The medical center/doctor will upload the result from their side to IRCC. You just have to inform IRCC through webform with IME document and the UMI number(as an attachment).

do you see this in tracker? may i know how long your eligibility has been "in progress"?
Yes I see this in the tracker. BG passed on Jan 27th. From then on Eligibility is in progress. I called IRCC and they said Eligibility is Review Required. Not sure what that means. The IRCC agent said that it means they need more time. Have applied GCMS notes.

Updates on my file since last week.
Received a re-medical request on March 30. Went for medicals on 31st March and submitted the information sheet on 1st april.
Eligibility moved to In Progress on March 30.

Called up IRCC - Agent mentioned Eligibility is marked as Review Required(maybe for the medical, not sure).
Info sharing is still in Progress.
