In the same boat. The agent told me everything passed except Criminality (in progress). She also told, "technically it is passed, just the officer has to change the status and take a decision." I seriously don't know what is taking them so long... And the wait is killing... :-( Every day, I check the account assuming I'll be getting an update, but nothing... not even a GU.

Ditto ... same to same status.

Hi All - Heard rumours about CEC Inland applications with dependents (Inland or Outland) aren’t getting processed / are on hold. Anyone with better news! Thank you...

Just received the GCMS notes. Ordered on 10th Oct. But seems, the GCMS notes were generated on 20th Oct.

I could see something called "PRBIO". Does anybody have an idea what it is called? And is it why my file is not moving?

@legalfalcon, can you please throw some light on this? I'm biometrics exempted and it got updated on the profile on Oct 14th. As per the GCMS, everything passed, except for criminality (in progress). Info Sharing - Complete.

Called IRCC, they said security passed and criminality is pending. its been pending from last 2 months.
Any idea how much time does criminality take?
