Thank you, guys!
Yes, they are most certainly working on FSW inland applicants as well. I saw my other FSW inland friends getting approval as well.
My VO was Ottawa, but I did not receive any ghost updates before the day I received the portal email. I received one ghost update on Saturday morning and 1 hour later, I received the portal email to confirm my address.
In my case, criminality and security were done in 1 day! I know it because I ordered GCMS notes on May 27 and received it yesterday after receiving COPR; the new notes are a bit different, they are more succinct. It says that my criminality got approved on June 19 which is the same that I received the portal email.; that is why those whose eligibility is passed should be very hopeful. As soon as the officer opens your file, you will get approved in few days!
Wish you all the best and hope that this waiting game will end soon for all of you.
