The BIL will have the name of the person whose biometrics are required, each member between 14 - 79 years will receive his/her own BIL. If you received one in your name while the old biometrics is still valid, please contact IRCC to update your file. Use the web form to provide the old biometric enrollment number and expiry date.

Thank your rower. I have two children accompany with me who have less than 14 years old, it means they needn't to given their biometric?
 
I discovered that the percentage changed for me. It was 19% and then became 20%. No idea what it means but I think it’s too early to make any conclusions..
So by my understanding the bar represents a timeline which is 6 months, so as time passes the bar will auto update its percentage progress and everyday counts towards that percentage. It really might not have anything to do with the progress of your application because I know people who at 50% got PPR and that was at the 3 month mark so 3/6 months is equal to 50% mathematically. so yea its just maths really.

Does the background check change to "we are processing your background check" after medicals and biometrics request? I can't remember if it was like that before.

Yes, in my case also background check changed to "we are processing your background check" after 24 hours of receiving biometric invite and medical passed
