Hi,
I am also in the same situation. AOR - Apri 18, BIO - Oct., GCMS notes says Criminality - In progress, Security is not started. It looks like all the delays are in these two checks.
Yaa may be. I only heard the CEC applicant getting approval on File. Have you heard anything that someone got approval like in our case (EE through PNP)?
 
Called CIC today, got the same response I am getting since last 2 months.
Criminality in progress & Security not started.
I wonder even in the best case scenario I will not get my COPR within 1 year (MAY 2021).
Any thoughts?

I don't think it is good or healthy to compare yourself with latest draws. People adapt to existing situation. I think it is just a waste of time to think on "what could have happened if...". Look into the future!

Hello, Did your Criminality (Inprogress) and Security (Not started) for long before you got approvals? Or was both approved earlier itself.

Congratulations! Give it a few hours or a day, sometimes a week (rare) for your documents to show up.

Excellent point. I wonder the impact this draw would have on the existing applications. IRCC have been complaining about lower than expected workforce because of the pandemic and now the invites have been shot up by more than 500%. There are folks with AOR in Jan, Feb 2020 still awaiting response from IRCC. I hope this draw does not influence older applicants and even if it does, I hope its a positive impact.
