Me and my husband are exempt from biometrics and it was updated sometime in September. Now the biometrics section shows completed Nov 5th 2020 and status of the application shows submitted. Is this how the biometrics exempt application page looks like ? or should it be biometrics approved/exempted ?

Yes it meant your biometrics are linked to the application and background check can be started at the same time.

I called IRCC helpline and per agent criminality is still pending (rest everything is cleared), Biometrics were updated on 15 Oct, AOR - 10 May, VO - Ottawa.

Not sure how long it going to take :(

They seems have introduce call back request feature (if calling from Canada), so one doesnt need to stay on phone. Agent calls when its your turn

your best bet would be BOWP
I'm planning to wait till November end and when nothing happens, I will eventually apply to it. I'm not the only person here, I feel like, most of the applicants whose Aor is between Jan - April, are being ignored. If I submitted my application very recently, I would happily apply for BOWP. It's just, I'm telling my mind everything is for good.

I have decided to go. I did call IRCC 2 times today, and they both mentioned that from Nov 09 they have started a new portal to confirm you are in Canada before giving a CoPR. Worse come worse, if that doesn't happen, I will cross the road border to come back.

I mean we are here to better their country. I don’t know why they give us so much attitude. Like don’t they realize we are calling because we are scared nervous and anxious. I mean.. I’ve had those agents too. Just so sad. If he doesn’t like his job that’s fine doesn’t mean he can speak to people like that..
Agreed. Fortunately, most people in Canada are nice people :)

Hi everyone,
Below is my information:

AOR: March 20,2020
Medical:May 19,2020
Biometrics done: October 21,2020

When i check my application, it says they are reviewing my eligibility and criminal has not been cleared yet also.
I see some people here got their results even they applied after me. I live in Calgary, Alberta.

I applied CEC through express entry. Living and working in Canada for the past 7 years, got a canadian degree.

They called me 1 week after i got my biometrics done to ask me when i would like to do my biometrics. I was quiet surprised because i had done it on Oct 21,2020. The lady on the phone said ;oh sorry about that , they didnt update the information:(

It is very stressful to wait. It has been over 7 months.

I just wanted to share:)

You should order GCMS notes to find out where your application is at in terms of completion or for a faster response, call IRCC. All the best
