Updated on October 5th. BG check changed to N/A yesterday on GCKEY. On tracker it still shows in progress.
It seems to always be N/A on my GCKEY tracker for the background check, although it shows that it is in progress on my PR tracker.
 
What is AIP??
From the IRCC:
Your application is “approved in principle (AIP)” if: you have received a letter from IRCC stating that you meet the permanent residence eligibility requirements, but. you still have to pass the medical, security and background checks for you and, if needed, your family members.

You will get it soon…
 
Approved In Principle. We have everything finished background, biometrics, medical, eligibility, CSQ (Quebec), sponsor approval and AIP. It's quite frustrating that it isn't finished at this point.
Thank you for the information.You will receive the decision soon.

In my case it was NA when my BG was complete but again changed to In progress for my dependents.
 
I received an update in tracker on 5 Oct that “we received your enquiry”.There is also one change in my GC Key status that my medical status is showing nothing I.e. before it was showing that “you have passed your medical”.FYI my medical got expired on Sep 23.Can anyone please guide why my medical status is blank now?
 
Here is my timeline. Hope to get good news soon!
