Eligibility Recommend passed?

[huyongjie1111]

Hi all,

I just got a call from CIC yesterday, and she asked me bunch of questions about my work and education. At the end of the conversation, she said that my application was sent for verification, but as of right now, she doesn't have any concerns.

Today, I called CIC, and asked about my Eligibility status, and the agent told me that my eligibility is recommended passed, and they are working on your security check. And she also told me that my application is in a visa office located in Ontario (she said one city starts with 'O' but I couldn't hear it clearly, I assume it is Ottawa, since there's only one visa office in ontario).

Now, I just don't quiet understand the recommended passed(because if the agent called me yesterday was the vo, why is it still recommended passed but not passed, does it have to wait until they clear the security then turns to passed?). Could you please help me here?

Much appreciate it! Thank you,

In my case, I got recommended passed on 2 Jun. It was finally passed on 2 Oct ... 4 whole months ... my security is still processing.

I think mine went from review required to recommend pass. I'm not sure if my eligibility is cleared or is still pending for another officer's review.

How long did it take from review required to recommended pass?

Recommended Pass means that your application has passed the case analyst review and is pending the final officer review.

You can get more details from the post I shared above.

You get to know this information from GCMS notes ??
If so, then can you see if there is any retracted or you see any verification under activities ??

My Eligibility was also recommend passed on june 7th and since then its N/A ..
Other reqs : was the last activity which says not started

Hi all,

I had called CIC a couple of days back and asked if my eligibility is recommended passed. I was told that my eligibility is MET and that would take oversight of another officer for it to be passed.

Now, I am confused if eligibility being 'MET' or 'RECOMMENDED PASSED' means the same or different things. Can anyone help?

MET and Recommended Passed are the same.

MET and Recommended Passed are the same.

Thanks for the response.. happy to know that these 2 mean the same thing.

So, the next logical step would be background check right?

The same happened with me. I called cic and they told me that my eligibility is met but she did not know whether it was mentioned met by case analyst or the visa officer. Can you please provide further insights to it? Thanks

Apparently case analyst reviews files first and the visa officer makes the final approval. It's weird that the agent could not tell which one did it. However, I've seen on this forum that after final approval by visa officer it would say PASSED and not MET.

Seniors advise further

So met means it has been recommend passed by case analyst? And the visa officer review is pending?

yeah but either one is good. When the status is REVIEW REQUIRED it's more of a reason to worry.
