That is great. Could you please share some information, when you sent the CSE and by when you received the email of the confirmation from CIC?

Is your MyCIC shows that the additional documents provided have been uploaded?

Actually, I too have raised multiple CSEs. First one on June 8 and second one on June 10. However, MyCIC is updated but, I have not received any email confirmation on the same.

As such I have completed the medical and IP1. I am into NA2 from last six days.

Thank you,
No, it doesn't show additional documents have been uploaded.
Usually it takes one month or more to receive a reply but that doesn't mean it takes that long to receive it by CIC. It could be faster but I don't know that actual turnaround time.

MY UPDATE:

Profile:

FSW-O - US resident
ITA- ~ Feb 10 2017
AOR- April 11 2017
Meds Passed: Jun 27 2017 ~77 days from AOR
No accompanying spouse/dependents

Got a request to submit Schedule A Background Declaration form with full history from age 18, I had past 10 years in EE profile but this time I am really giving details with entire history from age 18 even if it has been more than 10 years. History including travel, personal addresses, job, education, vacations.

My profile factors that may impact the time frames:

Employment - Govt/Civil Service in work history - if that matters
Also there is disclosure of a 'Visa Denied in past', US Visa for H1b was denied and granted after several months, this fact was disclosed in the EE application, this may also extend the overall time of processing in some stage or other.

Status changes on June 27 2017:

UCI Number is now added. (Had no UCI number)
Medicals - Passed
BG- changed from NA to Your application is in progress. We will send you a message when we start your background check.

Everything else remains the same. BG has been in NA since probably the AOR date until yesterday but I am not sure.
Just updating info here for other users:

History is quoted, saw another update in EE portal on July 13th -
Before: Additional documents are being reviewed (after uploading Schedule A Background / full personal, address & travel history since age 18)
Update: We do not need additional documents

Status remains same: We are processing background check, we will contact you if we need more information.

I have never ordered gc notes to check progress of my file, but if I order today I will get the gc.. notes in 30-40 days, by then I guess I would already get approved or rejected either way, so I will just wait and see.

Are you also a US resident?
I am really concerned as to why it is not updated yet. Is this normal.
Yes I'm a US Resident... I'm not sure if this is normal, but I think we have no option other than waiting.
I did order my GCMS notes earlier this week.. so I'll know more about my application status in 30 days.. hopefully I'll see an update to my app before that..
There is a discussion thread specifically for US residents and why their applications are taking longer. I posted a message there with info about average wait times for us:
