I'm really hoping that, since security is done which supposedly is the last step, eligibility is at least recommended pass somewhere lol. I've read that in a couple sites, also saw a couple people saying that they called IRCC one time and eligibility was passed, and then called again days later and eligibility was not started :confused:
Where did you find the information about the steps?

According to this link eligibility should be passed before security.
Before a security screening is initiated, an IRCC officer will first have to complete the eligibility review on any application for a temporary visa (work and study permits, visitor visas, temporary residence permits) or a permanent residence visa.

I have the similar timeline, Nov 4 AOR, background is completed (GU on Jan 31), Eligibility not started, Vancouver VO... I read somewhere that background check is only conducted if eligibility is at least recommended pass, so I'm not sure that the status remains not started until the visa officer finalizes the pass or not... Just keep waiting :D
Vancouver office, AOR nov 2nd, pr tracker said background passed on Jan 31st but eligibility not started...

Ok, That's under Application History. What does BG status show "In Progress" in Blue or "Completed" in Green?
