I wonder why. Is it because they have already made extensive background check when we applied for visa, work permit etc.?
I hope this helps you out, (https://moving2canada.com/canadian-experience-class/)


CEC Canada advantages
For Canadian Experience Class candidates there are three distinct advantages, and one possible disadvantage, under Express Entry.

Advantages:
  • Canadian Experience Class candidates have built up at least one year of Canadian work experience. This is a highly-valued factor under the CRS, and, as such, gives these applicants something of a “head start” against other candidates in the pool.
  • Because the required documentation is minimal, Canadian Experience Class applications are processed quickly, often within three to four months.
  • Applicants under the Canadian Experience Class are not required to show proof of settlement funds, as FSWC and FSTC candidates are.
Potential disadvantage:
  • Even if you are eligible to apply under the Canadian Experience Class, there is no guarantee that you will be invited to do so. There are steps you may take to improve your chances of receiving an Invitation to Apply (ITA). More on that below.
But first, let’s look at the eligibility requirements, because it is not merely enough to have accrued a year of work experience in Canada.

Hi,

after waiting and trying for 1 month, yesterday got connected to an agent at IRCC over phone.

She mentioned that in my case all documents are in line, everything looks fine. They have not yet assigned any visa office and the file is in Ottawa. She also said that its been .2 months and we can expect some changes and movement after November and my case is well within the time limit.

AOR: 19 Aug
Remedical request 30 Aug
Remedical done 6 sept
Medical passed 11 Sept
Background check yet to start

Just an update: I didn't receive an email notification. Just happened to randomly check and noticed that there was an update on my profile and it is in the "IP-2" status as of today. Which is exactly a month after IP-1.
Timeline:
AOR: Aug 31
MEP and IP1 - Sep 24
IP2 - Oct 24
Hey, I am glad you moved ahead with your file. But before your update sends out more frenzy across the forum and people start wondering why they are only the one stuck , you must update that you are applying from States. :p :D

Cheers!
