Aor August 12th
Eligibility - recommended passed
Security - not started
Criminality - in progress
I called them on March 31st and my status has been the same since January. Got ADR on January 12th for transcript which was submitted right away and the last time anyone looked at my file was on January 22nd
Similar. I haven't had any ADR, but the last time my profile was touched was January 14, and that's when my Eligibility switched to Recommend Pass.
Seems there are a number of August folks with AOR in that week that are in limbo. I'm assuming your VO is Ottawa?

Yes I have been following this thread for a while and noticed that our cases are bit similar.
VO is Ottawa.
According to ircc when I called my eligibility switched to recommended pass on the 12th which is the same day I got the ADR . Just hoping that everything is finalized by the end of April

Fingers crossed for you. Their processing order seemingly makes no sense. (Anecdotally) Started with early August AORs, then jumped to late August. Then started with priority NOCs in September. Then back to late August. Middle August seems to not have had much love so far.

AOR - AUG 14th..Today when I opened my CIC account it was asking my first name, last name and email address and asked to click on continue, when i filled and click continue the page went to a blank white page. After sometime i closed that browser window and relogging, the status of the profile remain as it is before. Is this something happen to any one?

Just because you have a PR application in progress does not put you on implied status. If your TRV expired, you had to renew it and during the time that your TRV expired and a decision was made on your application to extend it would place you on implied status.

All temporary residents have an automatically imposed condition that they must leave Canada at the end of their authorized period of stay. However, as per section R181, a temporary resident may apply to extend their period of authorized stay before it ends. If they have done so, their period of authorized stay as a temporary resident is extended by law until a decision is made [R183(5)]. Such a person is considered to have legal status as a temporary resident during the processing period.

See https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/publications-manuals/operational-bulletins-manuals/temporary-residents/visitors/implied-status-extending-stay.html

Currently if your TRV expired and you have not applied to renew it, you are out of status and it may impact your PR application as a COPR cannot be issued to a person who is out of status, and before your PR application can be finalised, you will have to restore your status or leave Canada.

Sometimes the log in loop takes you to the page to sign up for a GCKey account. The IRCC online system isn't great, especially when logging in. If you refresh it goes away.

Mine is Aug 5th and I’m still waiting. Everything passed on March 12th but no approval on my account yet☹☹
That's a long wait since everything was passed. What are your Visa Office and NOC? Mine, AOR 24 August, everything passed since 30 March, still waiting.
