HI Guys,

I got the following Reply today from IRCC.

Thank you for contacting Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).

We verified the information you provided and can confirm that your application is still in process.

We verified the information on file and can confirm that:

· The background verifications are currently valid.

· The security background verification is currently valid.

· The criminal background verification is currently valid.

· The medical examination results on file are valid.

All the required documents and information have been received by the responsible office for the moment.

Due to the ongoing situation related to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19), some IRCC offices are currently operating with reduced or critical staff only.

We are working on processing applications as quickly as possible; however, processing times are affected and any disruption caused by COVID-19 is not reflected accurately on our website. We will make all the necessary efforts to finalize your application as soon as possible.
Hi,
Wow does being valid mean they went through it and approved it? That could be some good news!

Hello all,
My AOR is Jan 14th, 2020 under CEC.
I am currently on a closed work permit in Quebec. I have a job offer from an Ontario based company and I have attached my job offer in my cover letter as intent to move to Ontario. I have recently signed a lease in Ontario (lease starting June 16th). I am hoping this will give them assurance of my intent to move.

How should I update this information on my profile? Should I inform them using the webform?

Any help /guidance will be appreciated. Thank you!

Well the CIC agent said eligibility passed but I don’t know why they did not mention there. I think eligibility is the background verification which is mentioned.

When you call them ask specific questions like if my eligibility passed or met/recommended pass.
they will look at the notes and let you know.

Hi Evens,

I read in the forum/agent confirmed that "valid" means each category such as (eligibility,criminality, security,medical) has been assessed and passed.

I have no idea what does valid mean but the agent said all passed just the final officer have to approve it
Well I believe that means you background check has passed and it is sent to local office to finalize it. I heard it takes within 1 month for you to get the golden mail
