IP1/IP2/NA1...etc are unofficial terms made by applicants throughout all these years, to try and understand the stage at which their applications are. Based on the structure and wording of the status in the "Background check" line, they could tell if they are at IP1 stage (eligibility...etc), or IP2 (Criminality ...). These terms seem to be less and less reliable, as status updates on an applicant's account often don't seem to follow the movement of an application across stages.

Although it is indeed very likely your application is still in the first stage (commonly called IP1), there is no sure way to know when it moves forward, except if you order GCMS notes. Those however, are official notes on your specific case.

Yes, no biometrics for Indian citizens.
Thank you for the clarification.
 
Can someone answer this please.?
IP1 and IP2 are two stages of the background check. Nobody is absolutely sure how IP1 and IP2 work but for the majority of cases IP1 is where your background check is not started yet and it has the wording something like your application is in progress we will let you know if we need more information. IP2 is when this background status changes to we are processing your background check.... Supposedly, you are in IP1 and then move to IP2 before you get your PPR email. Many people do not see progression like this.

Regarding biometrics, since you are Indian you do not need it as per CIC.

Bg status in CIC changed from Background check In progress
We will let uou know if we need more info .... to We are processing your Background check. We will let you know if we need more info. At first I thought I was imagining it as the wording is so much the same. Perhaps its the new NA 3 ..?? Email 30 min later frm nearest processing centre. No change to cic acc.
Congrats! Did you receive email for the change in background status from "We will let uou know if we need more info .... to We are processing your Background check."?
