AOR in February 2018

[vladmirgc]

My medicals were approved.
The weird thing is that I got a request for the RMCP certificate (Canada police report). It will definitely delay my application.

Why are they requesting this? They explicitly say that "You do not need to provide a police certificate for your time in Canada".
If I knew this would be requested, I would have sent with my application. They should just make this clear, and ask everyone to send it.

When your medicals passes in most cases your BG check automatically goes into In progress. You are now in IP1.

As for the progress, each case is different and the only way is to wait for CIC to come back with a reply. I feel that with Feb 2 AOR it’s still too early to feel to start worrying.

That said, keep watching myimmitracker for cases that are similar to yours - same residency, nationality etc., and figure out the median wait times to move to each status. There will be outliers who either have received status change too early or have had ridiculously long wait times. Chances are, you’re somewhere in the middle. So figure out the median for previous months and you should be able to see your average wait.

it means background check at this stage is not applicable.

I mean everyone gets the message that their background check is ongoing or will begin after their medical passes. I never got any such change.

Not everyone, most yes. Background check is just indicators, you can completely ignore them and still your application will go through OK. For most it will go into IP1, but not for all.

Now as far as BG process is concerned, it will go through the below trends. I'm using new status words for your reference.

Trend 1: NA -> IP -> NA -> IP
Trend 2: NA -> NBG-> NA-> IP

Some people who are submitting RCMP along with eAPR follows Trend 2 and rest Trend 1. I may not be 100% accurate. But this is what I noticed for CEC Inlanders.
Once the applicant at IP(2), he can expect PPR anytime soon.

Regarding at what stage BG will change??

STAGE 1:: After we submit our application, the BG status would be NA and it will be there until we see a change in Medical status (Passed).

STAGE 2:: After medical update is done, then agent at CIO will change our BG to IP or NBG. Then, he will start R10 check, Criminal checks.

STAGE 3:: After the above checks are done, then he will change BG to NA and our file moved to next stage for Eligibility assessment (A11.2) . Once he/she feels that we are meeting the Eligibility then he/she will provide his/her recommendation to Visa Officer and initiate the Security Clearance. At this point only our file will be moved from CIO to CPC.

STAGE 4:: Officer at Local Visa Office (LVO) will review the recommendation, Security clearance reports. Once he/she satisfies then he/she will approve the recommendation. Then our BG will be changed to IP again. This is where PPR(Passport Request) mails triggered to applicants.
