I think there's not much going on. Perhaps it is just that our visa officer has gone on vacation leave in December and we will just have to wait. Considering IRCC Kitchener is a pretty small office, I'm guessing there's only maybe 2-3 senior visa officers there, and only they can finalize applications. But your background being completed is a great new really, just need a senior officer to finalize your eligibility.

Yeah, how it works is that a junior analyst takes a look at your application, makes a recommendation on the eligibility. Then your application gets put into a queue waiting for a final review from a senior officer. Usually, they only start your security check if you have passed your eligibility. So your eligibility is probably recommended passed by the junior analyst. It's just waiting for a final review from a senior officer. Considering it is December right now, that senior officer assigned to your case is likely to be on leave. Just a waiting game at this point. Next time you call in, ask explicitly if they see if your eligibility is recommended passed or review required, some agents can provide you that information.
