Hey guys,

I finally was able to call IRCC for the first time. My AOR is 26 August (so exactly 6 months today), medical passed on October 15 and biometrics completed on Nov 12.

Got the following info from the agent:
Eligibility: in progress
Criminality: in progress
Security: not started
Last update: 25th of January (they started to work on Eligibility. Isn't it kind of too late? What were they doing for 5 months? )
VO office: Ottawa

Seems like I am not even close to getting COPR yet :(

Yeah, I understand it's different for everyone. Just wanted to know approximately. Do you happen to know when exactly they started to review your eligibility?
Note from Program Assistant was on 7th October. Docs were checked, R10 okay, recommend Pass for Criminality.

Note from Case Analyst was 14th January. Recommend Pass for Eligibility.

Just logged into the IRCC portal and saw this message, as well as the progress bar is back:
"Your application is taking us longer than usual to process.

About 20% of our applications are more complex to process. They take us longer due to things like how easily we can verify information, how well and how quickly you answer our requests and whether the application is complete.

If you aren't seeing updates, contact us using this Web form. Make sure you read your messages and take action when we ask you to."

Just want to make sure that everyone else that is passed 100% has the same message? (my AOR is August 21st).
