"Look at those who applied pre 2020, they used to wait for 8-12 months with no PR tracker" - I can relate and forget about the PR tracker, the GCKey was way different than what it is today (there used to be no dates against each step as it appears today). Imagine the level of anxiety people would have back then (2018-19-20), the IRCC call center was even harder to reach. Amazing how applicants back then didn't have anything to rely on, for actual application status and still managed to control the emotions :) . This comment of yours brought in too many memories.
haha, I remember that time watching all you folks wait and wait for any updates on your applications for months and years! That was a crazy time!

Hii,
My AOR is 5th April, FSW Outland - healthcare category

I have received BIL on 16th May and had completed my biometrics on the 27th. However it still has not been updated on both GC key and tracker. On GC it shows “we did not receive your fingerprints”.
I had called IRCC and the customer service representative said that it was received. Just wondering why is it not updated.. is anyone facing a similar issue?

note; medical completed and updated - 22 May
Eligibility completed - 28th May

Waiting for next steps!

Hi, I need help!

My GCKEY is with my representative and I have two email addresses on the portal, One is mine and the other one is my representative email.

So on which email portal1 IRCC usually send (Applicants or Representative)?

Thanks

I assume you are Inland?
If yes the P1 email will go to the email used for the GCkey which I assume is your representative's. He/She will have to forward it to you and you fill in your details and reply back to IRCC from your ID and give your email ID also, VO will create the confirmation portal credentials using your ID given in the reply to P1. From there on it will be your ID.

I am still waiting for an update. Biometrics completed on 21st May, medicals updated on 25th May and RPRF paid on 27th May. No update since then, both on Gckey and tracker. I see most of the applicants had their eligibility completed within a few days of the medical. Should I be worried? This process can be so anxiety provoking :/

I'll say what I wrote earlier: https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/april-2024-aor.842190/page-10#post-10854865

Don't be worried, you are already R10 pass. Unless you faked a document, no need to worry about anything. Like the case above, it will come through.

I’m in the exact same boat as you. Apr 01 AOR, May 14 BIL, May 20 Bio passed, June 01 Med passed. No other update. This transition from 75 days post-AOR to 85 days post-AOR without any update seems to be hard on the nerves. After that I guess the applicant resigns to his or her fate of not being in the quick crowd and becomes more accepting.

We can only keep our fingers crossed and have some faith! Probably our VO is different, I see no other explanation for the delay and as explained by other knowledgeable members on this member, there is no way to know the reason for delay so all we can do is have some patience

I can understand how nerve wrecking it can be seeing other applicants get their approvals with so much ease and within a few days. We just need to hold on I guess

Last update on my tracker was May 28, background check, eligibility, medicals and biometrics all turned green since May 27th but since then, silence. No portal email, no final decision, no RFV… I’m exhausted to say the least.

Anyone in same shoes as me?
This is weird, normally you get FD within 2 weeks after all completed. Did you check if every says COMPLETED on IRCC GC KEY.
It could be your country is hard to process FD and that's why they are taking more time, but 1 month is still far too long that usual, if they indeed completed your background/eligibility/medical/biometrics check.

FD can take months after all completed too. There are many who got all completed and waited for 2-4 months before they got FD or PPR/Portal/RFV.

All completed is not completion of all stages. All completed is usually "Ready for final review" - which needs to be done by an officer to make a final decision.

Immitracker has a very small sample of French category profiles. It is interesting to see that for the whole period of June 01 to June 24 only 1 PPR and 1 Decision-made has been issued. This contrasts with the period of May 01 to May 24 when 6 PPRs and 10 Decision-mades were given. Apr 01 to Apr 24 had 8 PPRs and 10 Decision-mades.
But Immitracker has only 109 profiles in the French category versus 19,000 ITAs issued. This is literally 0.5% of the total number. God only knows what has happened or what is happening with the remaining 99.5%.
Even with the tiny sample of profiles available to view in Immitracker one can see that the average number of days from AOR to PPR for the 39 people who received PPRs is around 95 days. This means FD may have an average of 90 days. There is a cohort of 16 or so people in 2023 that stands quite apart. If that cohort is excluded then the average becomes 87 days from AOR to PPR and 82 days for FD.
Since I’m at 84 days from AOR, what would my probabilities for an update be this week? My last update was medical passed on June 01 (June 02 on GCKey).

Probabilities are built on top of stat significant data, we don't have one as you yourself mentioned. I think you should brace for a longer processing time.
