non necessarily. it seems to me that eligibility and admissibility are assessed simultaneously. from my GCMS notes i could see that most of the activities are initiated during the first month. but then eligibility goes through several stages starting with eligibility to participate in the EE program to verification of educational credentials, age, funds, work experience etc., recalculation of your points, then i think they make a final decision on eligibility. by this time your criminality could be already passed and BG check be back to not needed.
