I am married for more than 2 years didn't change the name. Applying with different last names. A lot of people in West don't change their last names. So you are fine. If you change name on ur passport now, it will be kind of beginning from level 0 because they might do background checks again. And you will have to provide documents for name change and many others. This will unnecessarily complicate things. Don't change the name until you land. PS I moved to US after getting married still have passport with maiden name with father's name not Husband's name in the last page.
Exactly same thing, got similar ghost update with change in ADR status. Called and found out application Approved. It is at CIO Sydney (since AOR ) so don't know when to expect PPR....
Thanks for the response. At US point of entry, were you ever asked why you and your husband have different surnames on your international passports or did you always have to carry your marriage certificate along with you to proof your relationship with your partner?
Welcome to our approved, transferred to CIO Sydney, NS from Ottawa and awaiting PPR train @Bandit Queen.
Right now other members are @Jaywalker @RaulFloyd and myself.
....
So July folks if you were in IP2, with security not started, VO: Ottawa and got ghost updates between December 13-19th. Call CIC you may be on our train.

July 7 FSW Inland applicant here
I spoke to an agent today and was informed that I am still in the eligibility + criminality stage. Security yet to start.
She also said, "I know we say most applications are processed under 6 months, but that's not the case. Most go over, and so will yours. Please don't make any plans in the expectation that you will receive your COPR by the end of 6 months".Oh, and VO is Ottawa.
I don't know what to say. I'm very disappointed tbh :/
