-Application submitted end of December 2023
-Email with application number received 2 Feb 2024
-Medicals passed 3 Feb 2024

Your application is extremely fast!
Do you mind if I ask which country are you from? Are you applying with some special route for people from certain countries?
Thank you!

Reading the input of all the people here, I found that for BG check, some will have a message saying "Your background check is in progress" some have "we are processing your background check" --- does anyone know the difference?
