Is portal email different from approval? Doesn’t portal email means PR is approved?
For inland candidates, yes, portal email states PR has been approved and thus, it asked for other details, based on which process moves ahead and PR portal login credentials are provided

It can be anytime during a business day. I received mine at noon. I would say don't be anxious about it. Processing of January AOR applications has now started and it's just a matter of time when your application will be approved.
Keep looking for ghost updates at GCKey and also, keep checking the application tracker for better updates

Yeah Girl!!! You are more than halfway through. I don't think there is anything to be worried about. As I said, it's just a matter of time. In my application, nothing was completed before 16th March, and after that everything got processed really quick.

Thanks dear for your kind words :) Yeah hoping for something soon :) once i get some good news, i want to take some break and go home and spend time with family.. so only badly and anxiously waiting.

Yeah these updates seems like differs from person to person. some people have no update on gc key or tracker yet received pr confirmation. so i think all i can do is wait (patiently)

Hi All,

I am CEC candidate with ITA -Nov 23rd 2022
AOR - Jan 16th 2023
MEP & BIL - Feb - 27th 2023
Tracker says background not started rest all completed, called IRCC on March 15th they mentioned Eligibility and Criminality passed, security not started.

Can I know how long does security takes and how far am I from final decision?

anyone with same timelines got any update or ppr?

Thanks,
Most go through security in 1 day, some can take 110 days; and for those that are selected for security screening it could take 8 months - 12 months. Here's an amazing thread on BGS by Legalfalcon: https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/the-anatomy-of-a-background-check-in-depth-analysis.500146/

Well, portal emails/RFVs/PPR lettes are all called Golden emails. But if we go by the actual approval, you are only approved as a PR once you are virtually landed. I am yet to see someone here who was issued the golden email, but was rejected later though.
