Hey. I took a closer look on the pr tracker and a new activity entry appeared on September 29: "We received your enquiry". Not sure if it stems from my webform at the end of August or the one I sent this week... You receive enquiries but you don't respond :rolleyes: SMH

My latest ghost updates are: Sept 22, 29, 30 and Oct 3. I honestly don't see the point of having these ghost updates and will probably end up getting tired of checking.

I don't see the point in checking either as I really don't think they mean anything (unlike the real GU in GCKEY, which DO mean something) However, 20 months in, unable to get GCMS notes, and MP unable to reach IRCC after being on hold for 4 hours, and not hearing from IRCC since last July 2021, it's the only thing keeping me going

I had 10 Ghost updates since August 25 before I got movement again today with Background verification completed.
For a second I thought it was just another GU... checking every day and not seeing any news makes you just assume there is nothing... :p
That makes all the steps completed in PR tracker.

I've gotten 28 ghost updates with absolutely no real update whatsoever. You're so lucky and congrats you're almost there!

I have absolutely no doubts that these new tracker ghost updates mean something. My application had stalled after my husband's medical in March. I checked the tracker everyday, and it would go a month or two between 'update' dates. Starting in July, the ghost updates became more frequent, and as the weeks went on, more and more ghost updates. All of a sudden, our eligibility and background check passed, and now we have a CoPR number generated in the new tracker as of today. It can't be a coincidence. Just have patience. I see so many people who applied in May '22 talking about their application taking too long. The service standard is 12 months. Patience is needed.

Congratulations, not long now for your wait to be over, pop some champagne!!!

I’ve read from many sources asking the IRCC about the new tracker ghost updates (one of them was an actual screenshot of the twitter chat with the IRCC official account) stating that they mean an officer is accessing your file and you will see these updates until the officer is ready for an actual outcome of your application. So it’s definitely not just a glitch or a system update!
