Your assumptions are wrong. CAS first line appears after data entry to GCMS and before MIAR. Your file is still with CIO.
Well, you make say so. But the steps I have just highlighted is what is on the CIC website in a sequential order. 99% of people who have passed through the procedure and are now landed immigrants agreed that once your FSWP (PhD Stream) app reads "In Process" your application is in Ottawa.
I am applying inside Canada, so this might not be applicable to people applying outside.
I can not disapprove what I saw on my Online Status. Certainly my application has left CIO Office and have passed through all eligibility requirement phases.
I wish everyone best of luck
