I see...so as per new updates, what exactly is your status in account. "Next step is to conduct BG" or "We are processing your BG". I assume it is the latter.
You are most likely in IP2, NOT IP1 based on your previous BG changes...
So technically, you can consider your NBG as being at the same stage as IP1. Even though there are variations, the majority of the patterns for BG go 1 of 2 ways:
NA > NBG > NA > IP2
or
NA > IP1 > NA > IP2
They may say something different, but essentially you're at the same stage of the BG process. If you followed the 1st path, then you're essentially at IP2. With that being said, we've seen people go straight to PPR from NA, and other variations on all of this, so none of this is ever certain.
