Could be a system glitch or the one you sent before, had gaps and not every thing was accounted for. Usually it is to account for any gaps.
Then it is to evaluate your eligibility and NOC. Nothing to be concerned about, just submit it.
Another internal tracking # is assigned by CBSA. It is this format A-2017-xxxxx. I selected case file and electronic. Atip-cbsa sent me a cd. I ordered july 4, cover letter was issued aug 3 and arrived aug 10th. But i was disappointed as they sent me a copy of gcms note isdued july 4. It was the same as ircc gcms except that in one location under activity>security screening they did not white out cbsa name and it showed new value: recieved by cbsa, updated date: xxxxx. Also somewhere it says EDE required and pending EDE only ( i believe this EDE is diff from medical excessive demand exempt EDE and dont know what it is maybe sth like electronic data entry or sth). I only uderstood the file went to cbsa the same day as csis and the same as ss start date. But i have no idea if cbsa completed it. Also at the end of the gcms note there was a copy of schedule a and there was a circle around education. I wish someone knew how to track cbsa and that what things are checked there when both cbsa and csis are involved in ss.
I think this is more for security reason. A friend of mine, chemical phd from canada, iranian nationality got that and now after 5 months she is in background check. If u call cic call centre the automated system will tell u are in background check or not.
thanks can I call them from US? also I am trying to figure out how to answer to the form questions. One of them really does not make any sense. Trying to figure out how others answered this:
Just turn the documents in for now and see how it pans. Every application is different. When people give analogies that something happened to them or someone else, not all applications see the same result. For the security as discussed in the first 2 pages of this thread, is a very complicated process, which is not disclosed. Applicants get ADR all the time and not everyone sees delays.

The way my frirnd replied is that she never worked in Iran before. She does not plan to work in Iran and does not have any commitments to work there (she never recieved a scholarship from Iran or anything) and she wrote since her degree is from canada she is willing to stay in canada and work illegally and permanently.

The eligibility only checks whether the candidate meets the CRS and MEC. This further is based on the quality of documents submitted. Here quality would mean that a person who graduated from a well know university working for a big company would go smoothly through eligibility, as compared to a person who works for a company which does not even have an internet presence. Further, IRCC sometimes also does an internet search on applicants, which includes LinkedIn profile etc. Also, factors like the number of years of work experience is also a main concern. Based on there the eligibility can be cleared within a few hours. Now compare this with other candidate who has a degree in some field, working in another, and the documents are not that strong, will have a longer processing time.
