I have called CIC twice already.. once on 31st July and once on 15th August.

I got the same update on both occasions :-
1. Eligibility met.
2. Background check not started.
3. VO: Ottawa

Already applied for GCMS notes on 23rd August.

However, I am running out of patience again. You guys think it would be justified to cal them again to inquire about the status, or would I be calling too often?
Dude my AOR is June 11 and i am still in IP1 status. As you may be aware calling does not expedite your process.

You called too often. It is less than three months and the progress of your file seems fast already.

Hi,

Can someone please tell how to find out if my application is in BG check (1) or BG check (2). My current status is -

Review of eligibility: We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements.
Review of medical results: You passed the medical exam.
Review of additional documents: We do not need additional documents.
Interview: You do not need an interview. We will send you a message if this changes.
Biometrics: We do not need your fingerprints. We will send you a message if this changes.
Background check: Your application is in progress. We will send you a message when we start your background check.
Final decision: Your application is in progress. We will send you a message once the final decision has been made.

Does the message "when we start your background check" means that my background check hasn't even started. I submitted my docs on June 22, 2018. Any idea when will I get PR?

How do you check what date any step was completed? For e.g., I cant figure out when I passed my medical test.
Thanks so much!

And the ****ton of hope behind every click :D

This is IP1. However, it has happened countless of times before that someone went from IP1 straight to PPR. So the "Background Check" status doesn't seem to be a precise indication whether they are actually working on your background check or not.

It appears it's just a matter of a specific button/checkbox etc. the officer clicks at some point.

Can any one please advise!

My spouse had a UK visitor visa refusal and forget to mention it in our application (Statuary Declaration). However, I raised CSE and got a CSE response after exact 20 days that my LOE has been forwarded to concern VO. I didnt include any IMM5669(schedule A/back ground declaration form) in my LOE during CSE.

I was thinking that they may ask for IMM5669 if required but nothing happen so far.

Now, I am thinking to raise another CSE and include IMM5669 form. Should I do it my self or wait for them to ask and send this form?

On the other hand I called CIC Office and the agent didn’t give me any information about my application and he told me to contact London visa office as your application lies there.

Can any one help please!

Hi guys,
Quick question.
How long do we have to land in Canada once we get the Pr approval... I heard that you have to enter Canada within 6 months of getting the Pr approval ...

This must be the status of your application when you ordered GCMS notes. As far as I know they take 30-40 days to deliver the notes. There must be some progress with your application since then for sure.
