Ghost update and IP2 on same date, meaning? At same time or different times?

I saw there was an update , I clicked on it and my status had changed from “ application in progesss “ to “ we’re processing your background check”

Yeah, that is you moving to IP2,

Ghost update is when you see there is an update and when you go inside nothing changes.

But don't worry we all are with you. Are you FSW-o?

Also, try going to profile and adding your timeline to your signature, it helps you evaluate.

Did your status change to IP2 after ghost update ?

It was already on IP2 before the ghost update. I'm not sure when it changed to IP2

Ok will do

The actual work is probably one click for report generation. But I think they have internal controls to make sure no information gets out which is not supposed to go out. Mainly this information is related to security checks and many people in security screening have seen their notes to be redacted. My guess is that someone manually scrolls through the notes and checks it. And I would assume this process would be done by at least two individuals as a fail safe mechanism. And if you bring in human intervention to an otherwise digital process it will increase the processing timelines. All this is an educated guess or intelligent speculation on my part if such things exist. If you think they don't you can disregard the whole post.

Who knows, maybe you're right but even in this case, I guess they could automate this process since the generation is automatic. For instance, it could skip the security scan info section while report generation, or any other sensitive sections Agents could mark some comments as "internal only", so the autogeneration could ignore these tagged comments

They could but then that would take away all the fun of making us wait.

1st PPR today reported from FSW-O (New Zealand) Category. The EAOR is Sep 11, 2018. 79 days and PPR...

What do they do to get PPR so soon?

In my opinion the stat of 80% completion in 6 months is mostly a lie or a statistics of convenience. I know a thing or two about twisting data to tell the story you want to tell and that is exactly IRCC does (I'm almost sure) and I will give a few examples how that can be done.

Also, the data on myimmitracker may not be an accurate depiction of progress but I think it is not way off either. There are two monthly draws of 3900 each. Let's assume same number of applications submissions in one month so ~7800 application submissions in a month. As per immitracker we have ~450 cases for a month that is almost 6% of entire population for a month. That is a very good sample. No one actually goes and surveys 6% of a population in real world. Now there may be questions if this sample is representative and blah blah but I think it is pretty good. And that is the reason I just focus on %age completion because that stat I believe is very close to actual completion.

Now, let's come back to 80% or 93% what IRCC is claiming ... They can tell their story by (Pure speculation do not start a war on this)

1. Removing all cases which have a review required. If you notice IRCC says we give a decision on completed application. Anything review required I think is excluded from the calculation. So if the decision comes on a review required within 6 months it may be included else excluded.
2. They had a buffer of 2 weeks because of R10 check .. for this year they have increased the buffer to 1 month after September (a clear indicator of how much they have fallen behind)
3. They include completed cases from later months for calculations but won't include the incomplete cases. For example let's say they wanted to show numbers at the end of November. If you see immitracker almost 20% cases of August have been completed. All these will become part of teh calculation but remaining 80% won't be considered because they have not even completed 6 months yet.

One more twisted way of improving their calculation is where they can claim decision on number of people vs number of applications. So let's say there is an application with 3 dependents and hence 4 people and there is an application with single applicant. They will approve the one with dependents and can claim 4/5 =80% completion vs 1/2=50% completion.

The thing with numbers is you can tell any story you want as long as people you are telling the story to don't have access to those numbers. That is exactly what happens here and hence I take that 80% number with a pinch of salt.

And you also take this post with a pinch of salt. It is pure speculation on my part.

One more thing, I could be wrong but CIC states this:
"We’ll process most complete applications that have all the supporting documents in 6 months or less."

So basically, it is possible that if you have an ADR, the clock resets once you submit additional documents as the application wasn't complete till then unless ADR is for something like RPRF. Again, I could be wrong but just my $0.02.

Not be June AOR. Maybe not being processed in Sydney also works.

Yes I think they probably discard most "Review Required" applications this way. But RPRF fees .. man that would be another level. But who knows.

Wish I knew.

And Montreal as well.
