A warm Hello to everyone!

I called CIC today. The agent said my eligibility is under review.
Criminality is passed.
Security is not yet started.
File is in Case Processing Center Ottawa.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed with the eligibility part, as my master's is after my NOC work experience. And my salary as per the books was low as most of the earnings were plowed back into the company's growth. And I was a director of the company I worked at, so had checked the box for Self Employed part in my application. So far no additional documents are requested.

Following are my details,

Hello! Did the agent mention if anything is flagged as review required? My timeline is similar to yours.. AOR 15 Sep and IP2 on 11 Jan, CPC-Ottawa.
I raised a CSE last week, and got a reply that they are currently reviewing eligibility and background check not started. I think our files are progressing, albeit slowly.
I ordered a GCMS in December, received early January and nothing was started yet. Planning to order a second set when it hits 150 days.

Well he started by saying everything looks ok with my file. After my status, he concluded by saying no additional documents are required. I did not prob into what aspect of eligibility that it needs review, as I wasn't sure if he'll be able to answer that question.

Hey everyone, just thought I'd share my experience so far, might help those still in IP1 (and maybe someone can help me out too). My TL so far (FSW-O Brazil):
- AOR Sept 2nd
- Medicals Passed & Additional form request Sept 25th (a form to allow my wife access to the proccess)
- Requested GCMS Notes Dec 3rd
- IP2 Dec 4th (everything passed or recommend pass, except security: not started)
From what I could gather, my process was parked since they asked me the form, and my request for GCMS Notes got it back on track. It was totally worth it.
Right now I'm insanely anxious as to how long the security check will take. I've seen people in this forum waiting 7-10 months for security screening only (some seem to differentiate this from security check), and some got PPR soon after entering security check.
Any knowledge on this?

Got back the passport today! Took 5 days to send and receive it from NYC VFS.
Hi, just want to check. NYC= New York City? Are you sending it from USA?
I am planing to send mine today but PPR said if I am in USA, I need to send it to "CPCO- PR VISA in ON, Canada" not using VFS. (I am from a countries which need ETA not Canada Visa)
Please let me know if I am wrong.

Also, I just want to make sure I am right with its instruction regarding the envelop.
Do you send return envelop with your address in the middle and Annex A. Form?
2 photos and a copy of passport.

Thank you so much for any response in advance:)
